    “We have stayed at Flagstaff several times and love the house and location, however the house this time was not as clean as it should be.”

    All 3 toilets were stained and needed a good clean with bleach, lots of cobwebs on lamps and the fire places were dusty and the fire guard in the kitchen/dining room was filthy (I have a picture if required) all skirting boards were extremely dusty. In my opinion this is not a budget property and we expect a better standard from the property and from Sykes.p

    Thank you very much indeed for your feedback. I am so dismayed that the house was not up to our usual standards, which you had experienced during earlier stays. I have since been told that it was not the usual cleaning team. I personally stayed in the house for the week following you and I have made sure all the issues you raise have been addressed. If you had contacted us whilst you were there we would have remedied the issues immediately, however I can appreciate you might have felt this would have disrupted your stay. I do hope you will come and stay again to give us the chance to demonstrate the high standards you experienced previously. Property Owner

The property

With stunning sea and mountain views, Flagstaff welcomes you to the peace and quiet of Penmon.Within an easy stroll of the dovecote, priory and Penmon Lighthouse you will be amazed by the wildlife, fauna and history that surrounds this beautiful property.

Once the Quarry Manager’s house it has been beautifully restored to welcome six guests.A wonderful mix of original quarry tiles, beautiful furnishings and modern finishing touches wrap you in a welcoming hug.

Enter a spacious kitchen dining room with all that a chef could wish for; the owner loves to cook, and it is evident to all who stay.

Armchairs sit by the large windows ready for friends to keep the chef company as feasts are created and the table for six is laid.Once dinner has finished guests can sit and relax in the panelled sitting room - with an open log fire to create the perfect feeling of contentment.

On balmy evenings, when the breeze may bring a slight chill but a fire isn’t needed, grab the cushions and sit in the conservatory like porch enjoying a sheltered spot and a glass of fizz to celebrate being on holiday.

Come Summer light the BBQ and dine al fresco watching the sun set, listening to the seabirds settle for the night.

Long evenings catching up on life, memories for the making.Upstairs there’s a choice of three comfortable bedrooms each with its own bathroom to make holidaying with friends or family as easy as can be.

Hypnos beds grace each bedroom, ensuring the deepest of sleeps.The Master Bedroom boasts a Super King sized bed and views across the Menai Strait to the mountains of Snowdonia.Its own bathroom ready for long relaxing baths or invigorating showers ready to explore the beauty of Anglesey.

Along the hall two further bedrooms sit, each with twin beds.The first shares the magnificent sea and mountain views and has the added joy of an en suite shower room.The final bedroom sits quietly at the back of the house, overlooking the enclosed courtyard - a twin room with a large shower room of its own looking out on mature trees.

Flagstaff is a haven of peace and an idyllic base to explore Anglesey from.

No need to do much on your first day, just stroll quietly to the lighthouse, swim and wander the shore breathing in the salty air.

A long leisurely lunch at The Pilot House Cafe restores your energy, allowing rock pool exploration on the same beach that started David Attenborough on his lifelong love of fossils and the Natural World.

Walk along the Anglesey Coastal Path and discover Penmon Priory - marvel at the dovecote and make a wish a St Seiriol’s Well before retiring back to Flagstaff ready to make plans for the next day.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

BEAUMARIS

Menai Bridge 4 miles.

Beaumaris is a well known historic town on the Isle of Anglesey situated on the Menai Strait and overlooking the Snowdonia mountain range, making for the most stunning of sunrises. With its medieval castle (now a World Heritage site) dating back to the reign of Edward I and its Victorian pier, gaol and courthouse, it is also known as a major centre for yachting. Beaumaris is rich in history and retains much of its medieval street pattern. It’s setting, diversity of architectural styles and periods, differing scale, open spaces, varying roofs and overall quality contribute greatly to the town’s character. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants and public houses, as well as fishing opportunities and boat trips in the town, plus a golf course nearby. Along the coast is a large bay called Red Wharf Bay; its Welsh name is Traeth Coch (Red Beach) and the area is renowned for its glorious sunsets. The bay is very shallow and at low tide, almost 25 square kilometres (10 sq. mi.) of sand is uncovered providing safe bathing, perfect for wonderful family fun, fishing and miles of stunning scenic walks. Further afield is the port of Holyhead, which has regular ferry links to Dublin. Beaumaris is a good central base for touring Wales, in a beautiful location on the south coast of the picturesque Isle of Anglesey, within easy reach of the spectacular mountains of Snowdonia.

Note: The Fire place in the dining area is out of action.
