“This was a perfect location for a 3 legged 14yrs old dog, a 6yrs old dog and my partner and myself.”

Short walk, with a buggy for the old dog, to the sandy beach. Shop and pub very nearby. Clean, well equipped and great for our 4 day stay. We had good weather so we're out a lot of the time but if your stuck inside due to the weather the lounge/kitchen only has a rooflight window. We took rugs as the floors are slippy especialy for old dogs. Go for it. Worth a visit

“It was ok for a short break but for any longer there is not enough storage.”

Felt there was too much furniture in the living area which made it less spacious. The fan didn’t work in the bathroom every thing else was ok for a short break

- Paul, September 2024
Dawn September 2024

“Place was very well equipped, everything you need.”

Only slight problem was the bed is very low and the mattress a bit spongy. Had a great stay and will return

Kelly September 2024

“I’m sorry to say this but the sheet on the bed was disgusting ( very stained ) needed to be put in the bin, towels have seen better days , glad I took my own , green around the door Tod the property, bathroom and living area nice and clean .”

“I’ve just returned home after a 3 night stay at this property.”

Like others, I was a bit apprehensive from reading some of the reviews, but I needn’t have been worried! The property is exactly as described, it was spotlessly clean on arrival and the host had left out a bottle of wine and some dog treats for us which was a nice touch. Yes it’s a bit scruffy on the paintwork but this isn’t advertised as a luxury 5* accommodation and it is dog friendly so I wouldn’t expect it to be show house perfect. The property is very well equipped, in the kitchen there is an induction hob, oven, air fryer and microwave. The tv has loads of channels/movies etc & the WiFi had a great signal with no issues. There is a washing machine in the bathroom and a tumble dryer in the shed. There is also a little bucket BBQ with some tools in the shed. The bathroom was spotlessly clean and the shower was powerful and nice and warm. Towels, bedding and cleaning products are provided. The day after we arrived the faulty fridge freezer was replaced with a brand new one, the owner had left a note explaining this and he then came to the property on the morning of delivery to make sure that was ok and wanted to empty the fridge of our food for us. He was very friendly and gave me good advice about local dog walks etc. The chairs in the yard were clean and more than adequate, not sure if they had been replaced since some negative comments were made or just deep cleaned. There is also a clothes airer in the shed and a retractable clothes line in the yard which is perfect for drying off stuff after a trip to the beach. The only thing I think could do with improvement to make the stay more comfortable is the bed isn’t very sturdy and I was worried it would break. The addition of a small table in the yard would be good, as would a radio or Alexa device. All in all I think that this property offers incredible value for money, it is clean and well equipped and the location is perfect. The owner was very friendly and approachable and is clearly keen to continue to improve this little gem. I will definitely be back, we all had a lovely break here…the dogs loved it and even my grumpy teenager was happy here

“We were apprehensive about coming after the negative reviews.”

But were pleasantly surprised . Generally clean and well equipt. The appliances looked new . We were worried about the tv signal etc but there was a now tv box and what looked like a WiFi booster . There is a large electric wall heater in the living room along with a small portable heater and also one in the bedroom . My husband thinks the bed needs some maintenance. The fridge is a non frost but all the back was all frosted up and everything froze . We never used the freezer . Yes there are scuffs on the walls from cases and the skirting needs painting as chipped I presume from when the wooden floor was put in . The dryer in out house needs a good clean on the outside. we had to clean the filter as it looked like it had never been done and that’s a fire hazard . We also had to empty the vax . The seats in the court yard are mouldy and need cleaning . It could do with a few pots with some colourful plants and I’m sure guests would be happy to water them . Other than that I can say the appliances and the Wi-Fi were excellent. The space to hang clothes needs reconfiguration. It’s too high even my husband struggled. There is a large sky light in the kitchen/living room that badly needs a good clean as it has green mould on it . Having said all this we had a good break . The stag pub at the end of the high st is not surving food at the moment as the kitchen is under refurbishment. They will allow you to bring your chip tea in which is good . They will also give you the phone no to order it but you have to nip out to get it . The harbour hotel does food and I can highly recommend the dressed crab .

“On arrival I was very disappointed with the exterior and it was not very inviting with weeds everywhere and moldy outdoor seating that needed a good deep clean before you sat on it.”

There is a small outhouse with cleaning products that have not been used for a long time. The property inside is dirty with dirty floors, walls and skirting boards. We was told about the fridge which is full of ice and freezes all you food and has been like this since May. The freezer compartment was also dirty. The bed is awful and I think is actually broken. The bedroom is so hot with only doors to open for air, which I didn't want to do in the night. This property needs a deep clean and re-painting and a new bed. I'm glad we was only there three nights.

“Need new cups but other wise a great little place and people are friendly”

Pauline May 2024

“Lovely place, we had a pleasent stay, nice touch with the bottle of wine and dog treats.”

However the fridge was frozen, so our milk etc kept freezing up. I intended to ring the owner, but the Internet was down and my phone had no signal, we intended to ring when out and about but kept forgetting. Sorry about that. But over all a really nice place. Sort the fridge out and I'd definitely stay there again. Close to all amenities, sea, shops, pubs, cafe, with lots of places to visit. I loved this little village. Car park was 2 minutes away and free, which was great. I would recommend..

- Pauline, May 2024
Guy March 2024

“Generally a nice little ground floor property but it is small.”

Generally clean and tidy with pretty much everything you need. Few points that would require improving and our main frustration was the WiFi. The signal is really weak to a point where the TVs struggling at times and often tripped out and were constantly streaming for a signal. Sometimes we had to just give up. Struggled to connect phones too. This requires an upgrade in my opinion. Needs a wardrobe for clothes too as there’s a small cubby type hole in the bedroom with about 6 hangers that’s it. Table in the garden would also be nice as this is shown in the pictures advertising but there isn’t one there. The property however is well kitted out with pretty much everything you need. Really nice touch with a bottle of welcome Prosecco and chocolates. It’s ok for a short break but not sure we could stay there a week for the reasons mentioned above.

- Guy, March 2024
Rob March 2024

“Excellent property had a lovely stay only letdown and only small was the shower the temperature control was difficult to control.”

Would recommend 100 percent located 5mins from pubs & shops & beach

- Rob, March 2024
Stuart February 2024

“A nice clean modern studio in a great location, everything you need for a relaxing break 2 minutes walk from the sea.”

A bottle of wine and cake was a nice touch thank you.

Ailsa December 2023

“A really lovely base for the two of us and our fur baby over the new year weekend.”

Cozy homely and very well equipped with everything on your doorstep including the beach. We will definitely return!

- Ailsa, December 2023
Pauline December 2023

“The whole of christmas was ruined because there were no instructions for the cooker, we had a ruined christmas dinner, the fridge freezer had to be plugged in it wasn't on when we got there, in the bedroom there was no wardrobe just a hole in the wall with a rail which i couldn't reach so my clothes had to stay in the suitcase, it was just a nightmare.”

- Pauline, December 2023

“This is the third time we have stayed here and we feel at home.”

Well equipped though a table outside would have been great, we had great weather so spent a lot of time outdoor shame next door is empty and overgrown

“We couldn’t get hot water even though the heater was on.”

- Denise, July 2023
Clare July 2023

“In a nutshell the property was filthy and smells awful.”

Unfit for human habitation in my opinion. As you know - we left after one night. Your offer of a 25% refund was derisory. The amount of money you are charging for this property is ridiculous. You and Sykes should be ashamed of yourselves. Our much needed holiday lasted for one awful night. I will be sharing photos of the state the property was in on social media and Trip Advisor as I hope no-one else has to lose their money on this disgrace of a holiday let.

- Clare, July 2023
Jane June 2023

“We were fortunate to have really good weather whilst we were there unfortunately there was no way of getting fresh air into the property other than leaving the front door open.”

We couldn't open the patio doors and didn't want to force them. Although there was a fan it was on a timer which wasn't much good at night when the door had to be shut. We found the sofa uncomfortable but solved this partially by using pillows off the bed. The photograph in the description on the website shows a different sofa with cushions. There was a very helpful folder of walks and some manuals for the equipment. Unfortunately several of the manuals didn't refer to the current tv and oven. There was no indication of what had to be recycled where and the bins by the gate were overflowing. I can only assume that a previous occupier had sorted it incorrectly and the bin men had refused to empty them. The folder was also lacking in the general information about local ,shops, doctors, dentists, hospitals and vets which is often useful when away most of which have needed at different times on different holidays. although it provided a clean base from which to explore the area I'm not sure whether we would go back again

- Jane, June 2023
John June 2023

“Our stay was lovely, Thanks, The only negative point is not being able to get any fresh air into the studio at night especially the bedroom.”

- John, June 2023
Dean May 2023

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Old Post Office.”

One gripe, the bedroom would benefit from a curtain to keep out the early morning light.

- Dean, May 2023
Vicky May 2023

“I loved everything about the cottage.”

It was quaint and everything that was needed was provided. The cottage was clean throughout, the shower was just right and it was definitely a sun trap when sitting outside. The only thing that I would have liked is a tiny table outside to place drinks and food on but this is just a small thing. The beach is a two minute walk and there are places to eat that are just down the road. I would definitely book here again.

- Vicky, May 2023
Donna May 2023

“The property was in an ideal location in Cemaes Bay and central for everything.”

We had everything we needed in the accommodation and more. Thanks for the kind welcome bottle of wine too. The only thing needed for outside is a low table to use with the chairs but apart from that it was lovely and we would definitely stay there again.

- Donna, May 2023
Ann Marie May 2023

“After looking at the property on the website my partner who registered disabled and I thought it looked very cosy and perfect for our needs, unfortunately that wasn't the case on arrival due to a few simple to rectify issues but damning none the less.”

1) The sofa in the picture is NOT the one in the apartment it has been replaced at some point with a faux leather type two seater sofa which was impossible for my partner to actually sit on due to his situation I feel that any alterations in furnishings should be acknowledged on the site because this was very misleading and all my poor partner had to sit on was plastic dining chairs for which we had to go out and use our holiday money and petrol to fit them out with seat cushions just to give him a little bit of comfort but he spent most of our down time laying on the bed because the furniture was so uncomfortable. 2) We were confronted with a quilt and pillows left on the bed and we specifically asked for just a mattress protector and nothing else which is quite silly because the only way we could store them was by putting them into the outbuilding inside dustbin liners which we had to purchase from the local shop which was another expense which wasn't needed if our instructions had been adhered to in the first instance. 2) The doors on the bedroom and the living area were poorly affixed to there frames because they would not shut without being forced into position which was difficult to be totally honest the paint on the skirting board by the living room door needs sorting out as does the ceiling above the radiator in the living room as it is coming away and the hoover was left full of rubbish and didn't work after emptying it and there were pubic hairs in the shower before we used it. Both my partner and I have to give Cemaes Bay itself a massive thumbs up it's a beautiful place to visit the area was clean and tidy most of the people who we aquatinted with were friendly and polite the fish and chip shop which is on the high street sells excellent produce the fish is cooked to order and the batter is light and very tasty. The two beaches around the point are clean and easy to access and there are some fantastic views from the clifftop walks that take your breath away, if you want seaside attractions such as amusement arcades then you will be disappointed because there aren't any and the island has Asda and B&M as the one and only local shop is expensive due to it's exclusivity but they are only accessible by car as they are in the middle of the island but Cemaes is a beautiful place just to relax and recharge the batteries just stupid little things let the rest of the holiday break down. SYKES it's upto you to keep your listings current and up to date so someone else does not have a spoilt time through idiosyncrasies that need not have arisen in this case.

Karen April 2023

“We stayed here 2 years ago and loved it and so very happy to return!”

I would have given 5stars but unfortunately the bed was very uncomfortable. The springs in the mattress are going so I’d highly recommend to the owner to buy a new bed/mattress. It’s a lovey touch leaving a nice bottle of wine. It’s a great location and lovely and clean, we hope to return when there’s a new bed. Highly recommend to people.

- Karen, April 2023

“A lovely little studio in an ideal position.”

Phoned the owner about a small problem, who came when he said he would. He fixed the problem and brought us a coffee pot too.

- Julie, April 2023

“Very clean and tidy car parking a small problem but very good for short break”

Shirley September 2022

“The bathroom was fabulous but just a tiny shelf for cosmetics, more shelving or storage baskets would benefit and there is plenty of space for these.”

Not much storage in the bedroom with out of reach clothes hangers in an alcove, lived pretty much out of our bags. Thought that having no window in the kitchen/lounge would be a problem but plenty of light from the glass in the ceiling provided plenty of light. Location outweighs from lack of any views, with the beach and harbour a minute away.

- Shirley, September 2022
Patrick September 2022

“All good and relaxing place.”

Very minor reasons for not 10/10. Some light bulbs were out, the patio table was missing and the loo drips during the night. We must point out that these are VERY minor issues, which can be easily remedied. Very clean property with modern appliances.

- Patrick, September 2022
Margaret September 2022

“Easy to book with Sykes with good communication from them.”

The Studio was in a very good position for shops, cafe, pub, general store and butcher's all within a 1 min to 2 min walk. From the studio there were two lovely walks to go on the flower walk and the otter walk both taking you to the harbour. Both harbours are only 5 min walk away which can lead you onto more walks. If you do not want to drive there is a bus stop on the High Street 1 to 2 min walk from the Studio. Cemaes is a beautiful quiet village unspoilt by tourism. The Studio it self may be small but it is compact and big enough for two people and a dog. Bedroom double bed , comfy, TV in corner on corner unit and hanging space in alcove. Shower room good size with full size sink, toilet and shower cubicle. Shower very good. In the alcove there is a washing machine, bonus. Lounge/ kitchen and dinning area wth wall mounted TV. The kitchen has all necessary equipment to make either a light meal or a full meal. Outside there is an out house with a dryer another bonus. Patio area there are two chairs to soak up the sun the area is a sun trap. The Studio was for us in an ideal postion quiet and convenient for the amenities of Cemaes. Cleanliness was good just one area needing a little attention was the runners on the shower screen. Which in a couple of minutes was rectified. The recycling boxes were full but not emptied due to the boxes being in correctly filled. We took our recycling to the recycling depot on the free car park at the top of the road 1 min walk away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cemaes and at the Studio.

- Margaret, September 2022
Cath August 2022

“This is a great base to explore the local area.”

The property is comfortable, although better ventilation in the kitchen / living room would be helpful on hot days. The recycling and rubbish bins were full on arrival, and not collected due to being incorrectly filled by a previous tenant. Clearer labelling would help with this. The yard area was ok, although cigarette butts had been left in the plant pots, and the plants were dead, which detracted from the area. The property would benefit from a dishwasher - some of the kitchen equipment was not clean. I tried to wash the cheese grater, but it was rusty and not usable despite this.

- Cath, August 2022
Lorna July 2022

“Tucked away behind the high street, this property is a great little hideaway in the lovely quiet & scenic town of Cemaes Bay.”

It’s great for a pooch and was just what we needed to wind down a bit

- Lorna, July 2022
Iris June 2022

“The property was ok the bed was a bit soft.”

and darker curtains in the bed room would be better as the sun comes up on that side at 5am.

- Iris, June 2022

Cemaes is an excellent location from which to explore Anglesey.

Debra April 2022

“It was perfect for 2 people and a pet.”

I expected it smaller but was actually bigger. It's an Annex to the rear of the house off the main high Street. It has easy access and you can park in front of the garage at the back. There is everything you need. Toaster, kettle, microwave, iron ironing board, washing machine and dryer. Along with fully fitted kitchen. There is no window in the lounge which I was a bit concerned about but there's a large skylight in the roof and let's lots of natural daylight in the room so wasn't a problem at all. There is Now TV in lounge and bedroom. The bedroom has a small inset in the wall as a wardrobe, so storage a bit short but we lived out of our suitcase so wasn't a problem for us. The bathroom is lovely. Plenty of hot water and nice shower. We had a bit of a struggle with the hot water, but the itinerary the owner left explained fully what to do, so check that out. Perfectly located to enjoy the town, harbour, the beach and the lovely walks and hospitality of of the locals in Menaes Bay. The Studio was a lovely place to stay and will definitely stay there again. Thankyou for a lovely holiday ❤

- Debra, April 2022
Trisha April 2022

“Lovely accommodation, small but adequate and great use of space, bathroom and kitchen area clean, lots of facilities including washing machine, dryer, large fridge freezer.”

Used the information on local walks which were easy to follow. Great for our fog as the yard was enclosed. Only negative point, I had to wash the fitted sheet on the bed as it had dog hairs on it, all good once washed and didn't spoil the holiday.

- Trisha, April 2022
Sheila January 2022

“Smaller than i expected, but still had everything we needed, including a water bowl, and a ball for my dog!”

Was a very happy little holiday, well placed for many destinations. Everyone very pleasant. Will definitely return in the future.

Karen July 2021

“We booked a last minute break as a couple with our 2 dogs at The Studio.”

The location was superb as central in the village and a 3 mins walk to Cemaes Bay. The beach was fantastic for walking our dogs first thing in the morning and early evening. We also enjoyed a fish and chip super from the chip shop a few doors down..excellent!! The studio was extremely clean and had a really comfortable feel. I would highly recommend as it’s a great location to access all the fabulous beaches and attractions of Anglesey. The studio was well equipped with all the necessary kitchen equipment and even nice wine glasses. Thankyou also to the owner for the lovely bottle of wine left for us which was a lovely touch. We will definitely be back! Karen and Ian from Cheshire and dogs… Bentley and Bertie

- Keith, June 2021
Carole May 2021

“I think we should have been made aware there was only a window in the ceiling in the lounge.”

This was a huge disappointment. Not having a window to look out of did spoil the accommodation for us.

- Carole, May 2021
Thomas Keith May 2021

“This is our third holiday at this location so we knew what to expect and were not disappointed at all.”

The Studio is small but well appointed and very comfortable. Its also well placed to visit all attractions on Anglesey. The bed was very comfy and there was always hot water in the nice shower. We spent the time here with our two little dogs. We will certainly choose this location again in the future. Well done and thank you to the owners.

- Thomas Keith, May 2021
Ray August 2020

“We had a really chilled week and the accommodation was lovely and ample for us ...”

We had a really chilled week and the accommodation was lovely and ample for us and our two small dogs, the only disappointing thing was that there was no table outside in courtyard and the two chairs had no cushions also they need to invest in a new tin opener wich was rusty and didn't work, all in all a lovely place

- Ray, August 2020
Adrian October 2019

“A compact flat that was ideally located for our coastal walking holiday.”

- Adrian, October 2019
Anne October 2019

“This property was very modern but the kitchen was badly planned, fridge freezer is out of the " kitchen area" so had to keep walking round the breakfast bar and back!”

The drain in the shower was green! and all it took was a wipe to clean it . Floors had not been swept they were gritty and several woodlice had moved in.The property has no windows only a patio door in the bedroom and although there is an air extraction unit we saw no evidence of fresh air coming into the property. The adjacent properties are either very untidy or undergoing building work ( outside) .

- Anne, October 2019
Peter September 2019

“It was a very well appointed cottage with all the neccessary facilities.”

We enjoyed our visit to Anglesey. Easy access to all places of interest.

- Peter, September 2019
Barbara August 2019

“Bed had really thin duvet, and there was no spare bedding for the cold nights.”

Wasn't keen on lack of windows ( had to leave light on overnight as pitch dark ), and wasn't pleasant sitting in the court yard next to a skip. For self catering the kitchen lacked basic utensils such as cheese grater, egg cups, plastic microwave bowls. Other than these glitches we loved Cameras Bay and thoroughly enjoyed our week there. Barbara.

- Barbara, August 2019
Jack August 2019

“Overall myself and my partner had a pleasant 7 night stay with our two dogs.”

Very modern place with beautiful bathroom. Just a couple of negatives, no window to open which meant each night every room was to warm. We had to keep opening the front door to let fresh air in. Bed is far to soft to get comfortable on. Perfect place for a couple of nights stay. Brilliant that we got left alone all week to enjoy our stay.

- Jack, August 2019
Debbie June 2019

“Had a wonderful time the ‘the studio’ .”

The property was immaculate, in a perfect spot, the welcome pack was a lovely touch . The neighbours where very friendly. Definitely going back again soon

- Debbie, June 2019
Teena June 2019

“This cottage was much bigger than we expected, lovely and clean, contained everything required for a break away.”

- Teena, June 2019
Peter May 2019

“The house next to this studio is a building site.”

Very noisy and dusty. We only stayed for four nights. One of the work men turned his car radio/CD player up to full volume and opened all the car doors to upset us. We should have been warned about this holiday venue.

- Peter, May 2019
Thomas Keith April 2019

“We stayed at the Old Post Office annexe for 2 weeks until Saturday 11th May, We have stayed at this location before and enjoyed it and were not disappointed this time either.”

The accommodation is clean and comfortable and is ideally placed for discovering both Anglesey and the mainland. We have two dogs who love the walks and the beaches particularly Penrhos Coastal Park with it's beautiful white sandy beaches and acres of woodland walks, well worth a visit ad it's free. We enjoyed the reasonably priced food at the Harbour Hotel in Cemaes Bay. Just to say thank you to the owner also for the welcome pack which was very nice. We will certainly stay here again.

- Thomas Keith, April 2019
Julie October 2018

“We had a great relaxing holiday.”

The cottage was lovely just what you need for a short break, only negative was I forgot my hairdryer so one being there would have been a boost. Pillows were really soft as was the mattress but immaculately clean and well worth the money

- Julie, October 2018
Thomas Keith September 2018

“We had a great week at this location with our two dogs, we were very lucky with the weather and Anglesey has so many wonderful beaches they had a whale of a time.”

The accommodation was superb, ultra modern and very comfortable, exactly as described in the advertisement great value for money. We had no problems with it and will, without doubt stay there again.

- Thomas Keith, September 2018
A September 2018

“Not your falt but fish shop and cafe was closed.”

Shame when the studio was designed could of been done the other way round because in the lounge no windows but in the bedroom two doors opened into the garden for the dogs but don't allow dogs in bedroom. No windows in bathroom which is ok no wardrobe space in bedroom very nice place needed a bit more thought when designed.

- A, September 2018
Elizabeth Jane September 2018

“Lovely quiet holiday.”

We enjoyed good food throughout. Our 2 dogs loved the beach. In relation to the studio at the old post office. The accommodation was small. A door mat for inside the front door would save wet feet and paws being carried through to the main living area. But the property was comfortable and an ideal base for one or two people. Looking forward to returning to Cemaes Bay again in the New year when we are again using Sykes Cottages.

- Elizabeth Jane, September 2018
Colin August 2018

“Specifically asked 3 times for confirmation of the off road secure parking being ready.”

Was assured each time that it was. This was essential as my husband is disabled and his electric wheelchair and fall recovery equipment was to be kept in the car £3200.00 total value. The parking was in the lane and despite parking as close to garage( full of building supplies) as possible we still had to move the car at 7 am on the Tuesday for the refuse collection truck. The settee despite previous complaints was so uncomfortable watching a film was an endurance test as we just could not get comfortable. Same with the bed. Although studio spotless and well equipped, 2 out of the 3 mugs were chipped and cracked . Not by us. We purchased 2 locally for our use. No window except in ceiling. Courtyard grim with view of next doors garden strewn with rubbish and old furniture or a lane. So bad we packed up Wednesday to come home. What are you prepared to do about this complete waste of money?

- Colin, August 2018
Theresa July 2018

“Lovely place lovely location”

- Theresa, July 2018
Ian June 2018

“To be met with a bottle of wine was a nice surprise.”

Information about the property and surrounding area etc in the folder was brilliant. It was bigger than we expected and nicely laid out. Dog friendly exterior was great. Even though the car parking was on a rear dirt road and tight the free town car park was 1 minute away behind the property. Overall a very pleasing first experience.

- Ian, June 2018
Ann June 2018

“Very good except the off-road parking was actually on the road.”

- Ann, June 2018
Rodney May 2018

“Sleeping arrangements very cramped and too low and soft.”

Initial appearance on arrival off putting. Poor area. Otherwise clean and in a good location for beach and good walks. A bit of attention to detail would solve the problems. We would not feel inclined to go again.

- Rodney, May 2018
Peter April 2018

“Only 2 things to mention which prevent a score of 10.”

There are no windows that can be opened to allow a through flow of air. There is no grab bar in the shower for the elderly. Otherwise, very enjoyable.

- Peter, April 2018
Andrew April 2018

“Generally a very well appointed flat with all you'll need for a comfortable stay.”

No problems other than parking was a bit tight for our Volvo est. The internet and sky was very welcome as it rained for most of our week. Very handy for the shops, restaurants and facility's for the Town. As a base for walking ideal, as the coastal paths and country side abound. Value for money with a welcoming bottle of wine etc. A good spot to discover Anglesey from.

“Modern and bright but for us the settee and the bed were not comfortable.”

Probably would stay again if in the area but felt that £260 for three nights self catering a little expensive.

“Cemaes Bay is a beautiful place and we enjoyed our stay in The Studio- very clean, high standard decoration, local people in the bay were really nice and friendly especially the owners of The Stag Inn, lovely food and ale and atmosphere.”

Plenty to see scenery wise would definitely go again.

The property

The Studio is a ground floor annexe to the rear of the high street in the village Cemaes Bay, set on the north coast of Anglesey in North Wales.

It is situated near owner’s property The Old Post Office.

This is the perfect holiday for couples wanting a peaceful break.

The main bedroom has a lovely double bed with an integrated wardrobe and TV.

The open living plan area includes a well-equipped kitchen with a comfortable sitting area and breakfast bar and there are doors opening out to the courtyard to sit out with your morning coffee.

With a short walk to shops, pubs and beaches, you can get all your necessities and relax in the sun in a quiet atmosphere with a refreshing drink.

Further afield, you can take a 10 minute drive to the local Red Wharf Bay or town of Benlech.

This allows ample opportunities for long leisurely walks along the coast, the chance to visit local monuments and churches and explore the fishing harbour.

Angling charters are also quite popular in this area, and if guests are able to get good weather and calm seas, then a day’s fishing on the water is a relaxing experience.

This property is perfectly suited for a couple looking to get away to the Welsh coast for a few days or more and stay in a well-furnished and modern apartment.
