Sharon
October 2024

“Wonderful house in an amazing location with beautiful beaches within walking distance along the coastal path.”

Views from house are absolutely stunning and whilst it is remote, it is only a 10 minute drive from town and supermarkets. Owner very helpful. Would highly recommend.

- Sharon, October 2024

Thank you Sharon and apologies the cleaning wasn't quite up to 5*s. I now have a new cleaning team who I am confident will provide an excellent standard. Glad you enjoyed your week so much and we look forward to welcoming you back next year! Property Owner
Joe October 2024

“There is no doubt that this is the best holiday rental we have ever stayed at.”

It has been the most wonderful holiday; stunning location, beautiful house with everything you could want and more! So much care has clearly gone into making Pant yr Hyman such an amazing place. We’ve already booked to come back next year. If you’re after peace, comfort and some of the best views you could possibly wish for from holiday rental accommodation, we could not recommend this gem highly enough. Thankyou Anna for a wonderful experience.

- Joe, October 2024

Delighted to hear you had such an amazing holiday here! Its great that we get so many repeat bookings and I'm so pleased you all had such a wonderful holiday. Property Owner
Peter September 2024

“Lovely location, great for all the nearby beaches.”

Very good facilities overall and our large family had plenty of space, bedrooms and bathrooms. The views from the house are fantastic.. One bathroom needed a better clean and the peeling walls need some attention. However, would recommend and would love to come back.

- Peter, September 2024

Thank you Peter, glad you enjoyed your stay. The property is old and we do have damp in the utility room which is part of the original house - this is being addressed by the decorator in October. I have passed on your feedback to the cleaning regarding one of the bathrooms - please accept my apologies for this. Kind regards, Anna Property Owner
Andrew August 2024

“This property was a real pleasure to stay in.”

Large, roomy, comfortable, well equipped and with a very quiet setting. We enjoyed the cliffs and coastal path as well as exploring the local area. The owner made a suggestion of hiring a portable hot tub. The company set it up and removed it at the end of our week. Would recommend this as we enjoyed stunning starry nights sitting enjoying a glass of wine! Would recommend this property with one proviso. The entry lane requires gate openings. May be an issue for some.

- Andrew, August 2024

The stars are really amazing here and when we get a full moon, its' so bright in the sky! Delighted you found a great way to enjoy the night skies and that you had everything you needed for a fabulous stay. Indeed the first gate is a bit on the narrow side but thankfully wide enough for all our guests and services. Property Owner
Mark August 2024

“Wonderful week - wonderful house and location - views and walks were fantastic - 10 of us stayed for the week didn't`t feel overcrowded - very, very relaxing.”

- Mark, August 2024

What a great summary! So pleased you enjoyed your holiday. Property Owner
Elizabeth August 2024

“This was a great house for 10 of our family from 6 years old to 75.”

Very comfortable and lots of space. Tastefully decorated, homely, was well equipped and everything worked. The location was fantastic. On the coast path and 3 mins walk from the rocky shore. The views are amazing . A pretty garden with lots of tables and seats and a big lawn for games. We loved that it is at least 300 m off the public road. Half an hour’s walk on the coast path or 10 mins drive to a lovely pub/ resteraunt and beautiful Rhoscolyn beach. Be patient, the lanes are very narrow. Would definitely go again.

- Elizabeth, August 2024

Hello Liz, thank you for this glowing review! So pleased you all had such a good time at the house with everything you needed, and lots of fun exploring the area too. We would love to see you back in the future! Very warm wishes, Anna Property Owner
Penny July 2024

“Hi Anna, Thanks for a wonderful holiday in your lovely house.”

Everything was as described - very fresh, spacious and well-equipt. The beds were comfy, the kitchen had plenty of storage space and the garden was lovely - full of unusual, beautiful flowers. We had some fabulous weather but even when it was grey and mizzly we used those days to go out and about to explore different bays and ancient sites. (A large map of Anglesey on the wall might be a nice addition?) My family are all fit and healthy and they found the house really comfortable, but I struggle with arthritis, so if anyone asks you it might be worth mentioning that the house isn't ideal for people with mobility problems. For example: the settees were too low and deep for me to use (a high-seated upright armchair would have been ideal). I couldn't manage the stairs (a second banister might have made this possible). I couldn't use the shower because the one in the downstairs bathroom was over the bath and I couldn't get into the bath to use it and the toilet was very low (a couple of grab rails would have been great). However, I realise that I'm in the minority of visitors here and these were my problems, not yours! All of our vehicles (including a van) managed the narrow gateways and lanes with care, and the spectacular views, isolated location and general feel of the house helped to make it a brilliant holiday overall. Thanks again, Penny Burns.

- Penny, July 2024
Caroline June 2024

“The house was super and very spacious for 3 generations to spread out in two sitting rooms.”

Plenty of space for the dining table too. Our bedroom was huge and so was the bed, and very comfy. I also liked having windows on two sides of the bedroom. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and a big cooker. The utility room was very warm because of the boiler and great for drying clothes, so no need for a tumble dryer. Nice to have plenty of bathrooms/toilets. Great for coast-path walks from the house. We had a Sainsbury’s delivery, and the driver managed the gates without any problem. The owner, Anna, was very helpful.

- Caroline, June 2024

Thanks Caroline - glad you enjoyed the house and had a lovely time! Many thanks, Anna Property Owner
Robert June 2024

“A group of five; all of us found the cottage clean, well equipped, spacious with decent furnishings; we would recommend to friends and family.”

We really liked the kitchen facilities and we cooked three, 2 or 3 course meals without problems. Fantastic /brilliant, if slightly remote, setting; good position for access to the Wales Coast Path.

- Robert, June 2024
Kate June 2024

“Really enjoyed our stay at Pant yr Hyman.”

Lovely wild spot - perfect for walking and great for the dogs. Everything very comfortable and kitchen well equipped. Hope to return.

- Kate, June 2024

Thank you Kate! Our dog is living his best life when he comes to visit... Glad you were all comfortable and everyone had a great time. We would love to see you back in the future. Property Owner
Alison June 2024

“Had a wonderful break here, I wished we had booked a full week instead of 4 nights.”

Cleanliness of the place was only 99%, some of the door mouldings (kitchen door) had grime on them and windows downstairs could have done with a clean. Not enough to bother us though. Comfort, only my son complained his bed wasn't comfy, it was one of the twin beds in the bedroom with the balcony. My husband on the other hand was very impressed with how comfortable the bed was in the master bedroom, and nobody else complained about their bed. Facilities were great, kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of games provided to keep you occupied if needed, I played trivial pursuit for the first time and really had a laugh. TVs not watched as we were too busy enjoying ourselves we didn't need them. Family of adults staying for a birthday celebration aged from 21 to 70 years. We also enjoyed the area, good walks over the cliffs and we found the lilyponds great. We managed to do some swimming and paddle boarding there, though you do need high tide for that. Low tide there I imagine would be great for exploring rock pools with children. Would highly recommend this place.

- Alison, June 2024

Thank you Alison for a lovely review, and thanks for sharing such lovely pictures from your stay (which I have published https://www.instagram.com/pantyrhyman/). It's hard to get the bed comfort right as we are all so different! I've asked for the dust on the kitchen door to be cleaned during the next changeover and the window cleaner is due to visit on Friday so all should be in order for our next guests. 99% is great but we of course aim for 100%. Glad you had so much to do that the TV wasn't even needed! We strive to provide a great holiday for all ages and it's lovely to hear this was the case the big birthday celebration. Kind regards, Anna Property Owner
Colette June 2024

“We had a lovely week at Pant yr Hyman.”

Superb location and very comfortable. Anna the owner was very helpful.

- Colette, June 2024

Hi Colette, thank you for sharing your view. Glad you had such a lovely time! Property Owner
Suzanne May 2024

“Every single view from every single window was just beautiful.”

The house was great, plenty of space and ideal for my two young children who had a great time back and forth from the kitchen to the far lounge. The toys were a lovely surprise for them to play with. Great base for exploring as well.

- Suzanne, May 2024

Thank you for taking the time to share this - the views are indeed spectacular! So pleased you enjoyed the house so much. Property Owner
Susan May 2024

“We loved the property , its position on the coastal footpath was second to none.”

The accommodation was comfortable and very well kept. One of our party fell down the step from kitchen to utility room as the colour of the flooring was deceptive. The knives in the kitchen also were not sharp enough to cut anything which was frustrating when w e tried to prepare dinner. Failing these two points a go to place for a group of people to stay.

- Susan, May 2024

Hi Susan, is it indeed a fantastic location and we love to hear how much guests enjoy the position with the lovely views. Thank you for raising the points regarding the knives and step. I've bought a new set of knives and a fancy knife sharpener in addition to the 2 already provided, so hopefully this won't cause any inconvenience to other guests when cooking in future. We've also popped a sign up regarding the step into the utility room. Warm regards, Anna Property Owner
Anne-marie April 2024

“The property has magnificent views and is in a lovely quiet spot.”

There is lots of space and enough parking for 3 cars. We enjoyed lighting the gorgeous fire and the kitchen was well equipped. We felt the property needed a bit of a spring clean, it was mostly clean with just a few little things that needed attention. The bedrooms were big and the layout was good although the beds were a little uncomfortable. Remember to take soap for the bathrooms/toilets as there wasn’t any provided. There was a problem with towels having a smell on them but the owner was quick to provide new towels on request. Overall it was a lovely house, it just needs a few little changes to make it perfect.

- Anne-marie, April 2024

Hi Anne-Marie, thank you for taking the time to provide a review. I'm glad to hear you all enjoyed your stay with us. We do usually provide soap in all the bathrooms but occasionally it may run out and there isn't a spare in the cupboard! Bed comfort is very subjective and we do try our best to ensure a good night's sleep but sometimes we can't please everyone.... Please accept my apologies on these points. I've been made aware of some maintenance issues and have some work scheduled at the end of May, which will hopefully address anything else outstanding. And I'm glad I could respond to the issue around the towels quickly during your stay. Thanks again for the feedback - we will continue to strive for perfection! Kind regards, Anna Property Owner
Rachel April 2024

“We had a lovely stay at Pant Y Hyman in April 2024.”

The house is great for a large family with plenty of space for the children and adults alike. It is well kitted out with games, DVDs, books etc. Access is slightly tight as mentioned, but we had three cars and all managed just fine! The location is superb, with stunning sea views and a variety of wildlife on your doorstep (pheasants, rabbits and not to mention lots of sheep!) The bedrooms were all super comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed (to be super picky we could have done with a pair of tongs but that is all!) Anna the owner was wonderful, nothing was too much trouble. We had a lovely welcome hamper on arrival too which was very well received! All in all a lovely stay, and would definitely come again.

- Rachel, April 2024

Hi Rachel, thank you very much for the glowing review - so pleased you all had a great time and had everything you needed. I will get some tongs on order!! I endeavour to have a well-stocked kitchen as I love to cook myself. And you can't beat a decent night's sleep when you're on hols. With the weather being unpredictable then I want to ensure there's plenty to do inside as well as out! Thanks again for the positive feedback. Kindest regards, Anna Property Owner
Bleddyn January 2024

“We had an Amazing time in Pant Yr Hyman !”

! The house is exactly as listed and the location is one of the most picturesque locations I have ever been. The contact with the property owner was spot on and every time we had a query it was dealt with in a professional and timely manner. I have no doubt that we will be visiting Pant Yr Hyman again soon.

- Bleddyn, January 2024

Thank you for such a lovely review! I'm glad the house was so well enjoyed by you and your family. We would be delighted to welcome you back any time. Property Owner
Barry December 2023

“Family Christmas break.”

I would first like to start with the positives: Anna the owner text the day we were arriving and was very quick to respond to any queries we had A lovely hamper was left in the kitchen for us and was very welcome The house was very spacious and perfect for us as a family Plenty of seating in the living room with comfy sofas, and a large table Kitchen is very well equipped and the oven works well- which was a blessing as we cooked Christmas dinner! Bedrooms spacious, beds comfortable and everywhere was clean. Fabulous views Pub is great and happily welcomes children and dogs, and the walk down to the beach from there is lovely. Negatives: I feel it should state in the description how narrow the gates and the lane is leading up to the house. We all have 4x4’s of varying sizes and it was very tight, a bigger car than ours would really struggle. We had a Tesco delivery and the van couldn’t get through- we had to go down in one of the cars and transfer the shopping. The heating was off when we arrived, and took quite a while to heat up the house.To be fair once it had been on a while the place was toasty- especially when we got the fire going. It would just have been more welcoming if the house had been warm when we arrived. The description states ‘a walk to the pub’ -well certainly not with a toddler over fields and in bad weather. I’d class a walk to a pub as 10-15mins, the pub in question is much further than that Do not push shut the wooden front door, you will never open it again! Lovely as the house is, it looks a little tired and needs some TLC All in all we had a lovely time, even though the weather was awful, but for us the property was too remote

- Barry, December 2023

Thank you very much for sharing such detailed feedback - it's very useful both for areas of improvement and also for future guests. Yes the house is very rural and as such is accessible down narrow country lanes. The good news is that removal lorries, oil delivery trucks and maintenance vans can all access the property so we've not yet had a situation where it's not been possible for a guest to get there, but it definitely requires careful concentration if you drive a larger car! Unfortunately Tescos delivery drivers have recently started to refuse to come through the gate but other supermarkets will do. I can only apologise that the heating wasn't on and will provide the feedback to the house-keeping team. Luckily the boiler is very effective! The porch door does swell in winter months but was particularly bad due to the adverse weather - my apologies for any inconvenience caused to your party. We will get this fixed. The guest information states the pub is a 25 minute walk and this was timed based on an average adult walking pace. As the pace of children varies, we don’t provide indicative walking times for the little ones. I am so glad you and your family enjoyed the house and its facilities over the Christmas break and thank you for sharing all the positives. We will certainly look at the feedback that can be addressed. If only we could do something about the weather too! Property Owner
Kate November 2023

“The location was spectacular and, with a few changes, the house could be too.”

We arrived to a power cut in a storm and unfortunately could not locate any candles or firewood in the house. After 30 mins searching a huge house with my phone torch, I gave up and decided to go to the supermarket to buy wood and candles. We were later informed that there were candles in a dresser in the snug but this was too late. The promised firewood in the description turned out to be 2 bags of kindling in the outhouse and no fire lighters. I think a fire should be made up, ready to light in winter maybe. At the very least, logs should be ready in the basket. We arrived and 5.30pm in the freezing cold driving rain and the power was restored at around 10.30pm. I appreciate power cuts can’t be avoided. Once the power was back, we could start our weekend in earnest. The house is spacious, especially for two families as we were able to take an end of the house each. Once we could access the hot water, there was plenty. The bathrooms could do with being updated (weak power showers and wobbly toilet seats) but they were clean. The house heats up well and is cosy for the most part (two bedrooms’ radiators maybe need bleeding as they stayed cool). The outside space is great and the view is fabulous. The improvements are minor but would greatly impact the experience. Soap, washing up liquid, more tea towels, new toilet seats, power cut pack and firewood: all would be greatly appreciated in this uniquely located holiday home.

- Kate, November 2023

Thank you Kate an once again my apologies for the power cut. We lay out a fire for each guest on arrival and provide some back up - I'm so sorry this was missed as supplies had run out. The guest information pack also specifies where the candles are located but this isn't necessarily where you would think to look when rummaging around in the dark! I will get some additional supplies placed in the utility room as backup. The radiators have now been bled, a toilet seat replaced and more tea towels provided! Thanks again for the feedback. Kind regards, Anna Property Owner
John October 2023

“Beautiful location and well equipped house.”

Stunning master bedroom with amazing views. We saw seals and a baby pup on the shingle. The children thoroughly enjoyed the toys. Thank you. A very generous welcome pack when we arrived but could have done with just a couple of dishwasher tablets or washing up liquid to see us through the first evening. Anna very quick to respond to any issues. A lovely holiday for us all.

- John, October 2023

Thank you John - amazing you got to see seal pups! It's so thrilling when you see a family of seals. They live in the caves nearby so we've seen quite a few when we've been out paddleboarding and it's a very magical moment being up close to these gorgeous animals in their natural habitat. There should always be a cleaning pack with dishwasher tablets, cloths etc so I'm very sorry to hear these were missing. In future please do flag anything like this on arrival and someone can pop over with anything that's missing ASAP. Glad you all had a good time. Property Owner

Sue August 2023

“We have had an amazing time at Pant yr Hyman, celebrating my 70th birthday with all my close family!”

The house is situated in such a beautiful location overlooking the sea , large garden, beautiful sunsets especially viewed from the sun terrace off one of the bedrooms was amazing , great walks to local little coves for the grandchildren to explore and collect shells ! The house has every amenity you could want - home from home ! A lovely basket of goodies to welcome us , lots of information about the area, board games, toys, Lego and books ! Beautiful large main bedroom with stunning views , the other bedrooms also had amazing views so you didn’t feel left out even if you had a smaller bedroom ! The gate to the drive is narrow, but my son managed to get his VW transporter camper van through easily (after reading some other reviews we were worried we wouldn’t get it through the gate ) the sheep on the drive to the house however, certainly think they own the area and love to stand and stare you out ! We have all had an amazing holiday , and Anna the owner was extremely helpful if we had any queries !

- Sue, August 2023

Hi Sue, happy birthday to you and I’m so glad you enjoyed your celebration at Pant Yr Hyman. We do try and cater for all ages and needs as much as possible in the house, but of course the best thing we can offer is the spectacular views and location, with the balcony being the perfect way to enjoy the sunsets! Thank you for leaving such positive feedback. Kind regards Anna Property Owner
Lesley August 2023

“We had a lovely week staying in this spacious and comfortable house.”

The view out over the Irish Sea was spectacular and we enjoyed cliff top walks and the little nearby coves. Rhoscolyn beach was nice especially since dogs could run free on the sand but the car park is small so it was important to get there early. The remote site of the house was difficult to find especially since the sign by the last gate was partially hidden by the hedge. However when you found it, the house was beautiful and very peaceful. We hired a hot tub which was enjoyed by all.

- Lesley, August 2023

Delighted you enjoyed your stay with us and got some fabulous sunsets. Yes it really is a hidden gem but I’ll the hedge cut back which will help others in the future! Thank you. Property Owner
Christopher August 2023

“A wonderful location, fabulous views, walks, and beaches nearby.”

The house was like a home from home. It was comfortable well equipped and the children and adults had a wonderful week. I would recommend it to anyone.

- Christopher, August 2023
Tracey Anne July 2023

“We were very happy with our accommodation.”

It had everything we needed for our long weekend stay. The location was beautiful and we felt so at home. People around local area were very friendly and happy to help out when trying to locate the property. A couple of beautiful coastal walks on our doorstep. All in all we enjoyed our stay in Rhoscolyn.

- Tracey Anne, July 2023

Hello Tracey, thank you for sharing this lovely feedback and for your very kind text. So pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your holiday! Kind regards Anna Property Owner
Jillian July 2023

“A more accurate description of where bedrooms/bathrooms are would have been more helpful when figuring out where people sleep particularly as stairs are involved (with young children and elderly parents 2 bedrooms upstairs with bathroom downstairs is an issue).”

More furniture/drawers are also needed as there is very little places to unpack clothes. The shower in the En-suite has issues draining. However these were only small issues that can be easily rectified and we enjoyed staying at the house. The location is very private with stunning views and walks and the house has lots of space for everyone.

- Jillian, July 2023

Hi Jillian, thank you for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed the stunning views & surroundings and the house was enjoyed by your family. I have discussed with Menai and we will consider a more detailed description of the layout. Guests usually find there is plenty of storage for their belongings with several wardrobes & chests of drawers available but I will monitor this and provide additional space if needed. I'll get the drainage issues looked at - thank you for flagging this. KR, Anna Property Owner
Andrew May 2023

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, lovely house and beautiful setting.”

Eileen May 2023

“In all honesty our holiday at Pant Ya Hyman was amazing , beautiful house, fabulous views & surroundings.”

The house had everything you could wish for. If there was anything we needed to know or ask about the owner Anna was always at hand nothing was to much trouble, lovely lady. We went on lovely walks, seen some fab beaches & coves, visited some nice pubs. Fabulous place to stay 10/10 From Eileen Rose & family xx

- Eileen, May 2023

Hi Eileen, it was a pleasure to have you stay with us! Thank you for sharing your photos and comments in the visitors book too - it looks like you had a fantastic time! We would love to have you back again in the future. Warmest regards, Anna Property Owner
Glyn April 2023

“Large, comfortable and warm property ideal for large family (plus dogs, in our case).”

Admin of booking was straightforward and the additional info provided by the owner was timely and very useful. Location of the property is right on the coastal path with spectacular views in all directions. Really enjoyed a drink on the balcony watching the sun go down. Local amenities were a short drive away, with excellent local pub a 5min drive or 20min walk across fields. We really enjoyed our week.

- Glyn, April 2023
Gill March 2023

“Cleanliness was poor - dead flies on window ledge; dog hairs on furniture, rug & lounge floor; sofa badly stained; skirtings & window frames need cleaning; hairs & dust behind/in between radiators; crumbs under cooker & in corners of kitchen.”

Comfort - single bed (balcony room & downstairs bedroom) were uncomfortable; most quilts were not warm enough for time of year; sofa dipped when you sat on it; dining room chair was broken Facilities & maintenance - power button on dishwasher was temperamental; damp in kitchen, lounge & utility; plug in bath wouldn’t hold water; 2 radiators not working; couldn’t get main oven to work; no instructions on oven; no instructions on what waste to recycle, how to separate it & what to do with ash from fire; most bathroom/toilet fittings (towel & toilet roll) were loose; carpets fraying on door thresholds. Such a shame as the house is in a fantastic setting & you can see where the owner has carried out modernisation but it is in need of a thorough deep clean, paintwork touch up & some updating

- Gill, March 2023

Thank you very much for providing your feedback. This of course is very disappointing to hear as we strive to ensure our guests have a fabulous experience, so please accept my apologies that this wasn't the case for you personally. It also comes as a surprise as we exchanged several messages and I was under the impression we had dealt with your issues satisfactorily. As no problems were reported by previous guests, we weren’t aware of anything needing addressing. The cooker apparently not working was rectified by turning it on at the wall, all the information relating to operating the appliances, dealing with recycling/rubbish, logs, heating etc was included in the guest information pack sent to you ahead of your stay (with printed copies left in the house), and my maintenance man came the following day to fix the radiators etc. It was lovely to hear back from you during your stay that you were all having a great time and that you're grandchildren loved the house in particular, and a relief that these issues didn't get in the way of your enjoyment of the property. Unfortunately, previous guests had dogs which damaged the carpet which is being replaced shortly during my maintenance visit. I've booked an upholstery clean for the sofa, and will check the mattresses; bed comfort is subjective and hasn't previously been reported. As explained to you, the house has just been re-wired - it's an old property with stone walls, so some patches of new plasterwork are taking longer to fully dry out in the cold weather. Dead flies on the windowsill of course creates a negative first impression for which I can only apologise, and of course I will investigate this. However, hopefully future guests will be encouraged by previous highly complementary feedback which includes many 5* reviews, including for cleanliness. Many thanks, Anna (Owner) Property Owner

Morne October 2022

“Reminded us all of our childhood beach breaks.”

Amazing spot! Great for families, and incredibly close to some amazing little hidden coves and the main beaches and shops. Awesome all round.

- Morne, October 2022

Hi Morne, thanks for leaving a glowing review online for us, and also for the lovely comments in the guest book. Glad you found the hidden little coves - nature's treasure right out the back of the garden...! Kind regards, Anna Property Owner
Victoria October 2022

“We have been going to this area for 10 years now always to a different house, when we couldn’t get that house we thought we would try another one in the same location, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to make wonderful memories, the house was amazing the location, the welcome basket, everything you could need was supplied!”

We will certainly be returning

- Victoria, October 2022

Hi Victoria, I'm delighted you had such a great time; it's all about making the memories! It would be lovely to have you back again in the future. Thank you for leaving such a positive review, and also for the guest book comments too. Many thanks Anna Property Owner
James October 2022

“This holiday property is in a spectacular location, in our opinion.”

The location of the property offers privacy with easy access to a number of coastal walks. A choice of supermarkets is only a 10 minutes drive away for any shopping requirements. The welcome / information pack provided by the owner was a lovely gesture and our group thoroughly enjoyed everything that the property and this location had to offer. We have no hesitation in recommending this property for other visitors and would definitely consider a return visit at some point in the future.

- James, October 2022

Hi Jim, thank you for this fabulous review, and for your lovely comments in the guest book. I'm so pleased you've had such a great time and enjoyed everything the house has to offer. The location is indeed truly special. We would of course be delighted to welcome you back in the future! Warmest regards, Anna Property Owner
Elizabeth September 2022

“We all had a fantastic time in the cottage.”

The location was amazing. I contacted the owner a couple of times, she was very friendly and helpful. The house was so well equipped we wanted for nothing. The coastal walks and small coves were a bonus.

- Elizabeth, September 2022

Hi Elizabeth, we are always delighted when we get a top rated review - its heart-warming to know that our guests are getting so much enjoyment from our cottage set in this beautiful part of the world! Thank you very much for sharing this and we would be very pleased to welcome you back again in the future. Kind regards, Anna (Owner) Property Owner
Daphne August 2022

“Wonderful spacious holiday home with amazing sea views.”

So much to do on the doorstep. Beautiful coastal path and we found a sheltered cove which was very safe for swimming at high tide. We had a couple of issues with bathrooms. Downstairs bath was very slow to drain and water leaked under the shower screen. The shower in the en suite was far too small for my husband! Such a pity as the bedroom is enormous! These were minor issues which did not detract from the rest of the house which was extremely well equipped. We were three families, three generations and the house was perfect for us. Would love to return one day!

- Daphne, August 2022

Hi Daphne, so pleased to hear you had such a great stay, and thank you for the lovely comments in the guest book. The bathroom drainage issues are now sorted out. Comment duly noted regarding the en-suite... Hope is was OK for the rest of you! We will look into increasing the size of the shower enclosure when the bathroom is next refurbished. We would of course be delighted to welcome you back in the future. Many thanks, Anna (Owner) Property Owner
Neil July 2022

“The house is lovely and in a fantastic location.”

There are just two things that made me not give the booking full marks. First, the listing says the house has WiFi but it only works for a few hours of the day - I talked to the owner but nothing could be done about it till the following week. Since it always goes off at 9.30 pm we think it has been set this way. The second thing that should be mentioned in the details is that you have to be a very good driver to get down the last part of the track unscathed if you have anything wider than a small car. This could be solved quite easily with some secateurs and a pruning saw - my car will need some remedial polishing to get the scratches out.

- Neil, July 2022

Hi Neil, thank you very much for providing the feedback. I’m delighted to hear that you throughly enjoyed the house and location. As discussed, there was a fault identified with the broadband and our supplier couldn’t get an engineer out before you were due to leave. I can only apologise for the inconvenience caused not having the wifi available after 9.30pm. I’m pleased to report this has been rectified and the wifi is working as usual, 24/7. The bracken etc along driveway has now been chopped back. My gardeners and maintenance team are very local and this sort of issue can usually be quickly rectified - but of course only if I’m made aware of it. I share my contact details with guests prior to their stay so that anything can be reported and addressed as quickly as possible, with minimum disruption or inconvenience to your holiday. Hopefully you experienced some stunning sunsets from the balcony given the beautiful weather last week! Kind regards Anna Property Owner

“Sykes are massively letting down this owner.”

Given the competition out there for letting agents I’d have thought they’d be hot on. We won’t be booking through Sykes again. Firstly the property was showing available a few days prior to arrival so we contacted Sykes to see if we could arrive early. 3 webchats and 4 phone calls later and still no answer so we arrived on our given day missing out on a few extra days and the owner on extra revenue. We were also promised the twins would be made in to doubles only to find out this isn’t even possible. Secondly, on arrival the property was not cleaned to a good standard and so the Housekeep is also letting down the owner. We sent the images to Syke; many plates caked in crusty food where they hadn’t been checked after being put away from the dishwasher. The kettle was thick of lime scale, the downstairs look had a urine stains on the bowl under the lid and bedding under a single bed that had been missed. The stair gate had still not been fixed following several previous guests comments, the tread at the bottom of the main stairs has come away and is shop and the windows very dirty. When reported to Sykes the response was utterly bland and non caring. Don’t get me wrong - NONE of the issues we experienced detracted away from the enjoy of the property. The house is amazing the views and space breathtaking! We simply cleaned ourselves and whilst this was frustrating we just got on with it. As we enjoyed the house so much we again asked Sykes if we could possibly stay longer. Greedily they came back to us with over £600 for two extra nights, totally ignoring the images and feedback we’d given previously. A relative who was with us works regularly and independently with many property owners to ensure they get the best occupancy levels and revenue. In the past he’s placed many cottages with Sykes and since removed them all to other suppliers as they just don’t deal with guests well enough. In summary, this house is in a perfect location, well equipped, has great space, wonderful for coastal walks, stunning views and has a great feel. However Sykes massively disappointed us with their incredibly poor service and in turn have let down the property owner.

- Amanda, June 2022

We are so sorry to hear that you feel your experience relating to this booking has not been what you had expected. We did receive your request to arrive earlier at the property on the 14/06, 4 days before your arrival and we did try to arrange this on your behalf. An email response was sent to your account on 15th June advising we were reviewing the request but unfortunately, we were not able to confirm the earlier arrival date with the owner before the start of your holiday. The accommodation and configuration of the beds is stated clearly within our description. If there is the possibility to have beds made up in any other way, then we would always include this within the property listing. Upon arrival you did raise cleanliness issues at the property, and we immediately offered to have someone come out to re-clean the property and address any of your concerns, but this offer was declined. Previous reviews for this property have often rated cleanliness at the property very high. We are however delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at the owner property so much that you requested to extend your stay. We responded with the set prices for the days requested that are visible online to all customers who wish to make a booking and you opted against the decision to extend your holiday. Thanks you so much for your comments relating to the property location, Coastal walks and property views. We are pleased you were able to enjoy your holiday. Property Owner

Fantastic stay Completely in the middle of nowhere with sheep as your neighbours Amazing walks on the door step Great outdoor space for the kids and an easy walk to the local pub for dinner and drinks We went with 3 generations and all of us had an amazing time

Marck February 2022

“Large house in fantastic location, just off coastal path, one minute to rocks and boulder beaches.”

Really enjoyed watching the february 22 storms drift in! Comfortable spacious house, separate annex (without kitchen) good for second family. Surrounding land perfect for walking dogs, 25 min walk to local pub. Recommended

“”

- Lorna, Feb 2022

A great house for holidays with extended family and friends, almost enough bathrooms and loos for one each! Access to coastal path from the garden where a walk in either direction brings you to beautiful coves and beaches. We had three storms in as many days and watching the breakers from the master bedroom was stunning. For a big house this was surprisingly warm and cozy throughout, with the log burner in the big lounge to fall asleep in front of in the evenings after all the fresh air! Property Owner
James January 2022

“Pant yr Hyman is remote , up a track with breath taking views.”

The garden leads straight onto the coastal path with fab walks in each direction. The property was ideal for a big birthday celebration of 3 generations including 4 children and dogs. The welcome pack was appreciated The house was clean , warm , comfy & homely Well equipped Two very minor issues were discussed personally with Anna who will sort straight away. We had the BEST time , made family memories … left feeling relaxed and happy Thanks

Joshua November 2021

“We had a really relaxing family holiday in this remote and peaceful location.”

The cottage was perfect, clean and tidy and very organised. We were initially concerned due to some negative reviews but the location won us over. We have absolutely no regrets and everything about the cottage was fine and in good working order. All standard requirements are met and there were even plenty games for children and adults. Good walks, sea views, sunsets, wind, rain even some sunshine- we had it all! thank you!

- Joshua, November 2021

Hi Josh and family, thank you for your 5* review! We are always delighted hear when our guests have had such a lovely time, and even better if you got some sunshine! The sunsets there are unbeatable. Glad you all enjoyed the games too, but the real enjoyment is the beautiful coastline and countryside :-) Many thanks, Anna Property Owner
Jean November 2021

“We went to stay at Pant yr Hyman 5th to 8th November a family weekend 4 teenagers 4 adults and one grandma when we got there the house was so warm and there was a lovely hamper from Anna the owner, it was such a spacious welcoming house .”

We went for plenty of walks with the dog, we did not see any cars or people which is what we wanted we did take all our own food but there was plenty of places to go and shop just 5mins. in the car. We all had a really relaxing chilled out weekend it was lovely and thank you Anna for letting us stay in your holiday home Jean Jones

- Jean, November 2021

Hi Jean & co, so pleased to hear you enjoyed the welcome hamper but even better that you had a such a lovely time together. This is what it's all about! It's a pleasure to have you stay and share such a magical place. Thank you also for all the lovely comments in the visitors book and for leaving a 5* review too! Many thanks, Anna Property Owner
Tracey October 2021

“House was warm and inviting, location was amazing, six of us stayed here comfortably and with two dogs.”

Everything was as described, looks like carpets had been replaced (as noted in previous feedback) would stay again

- Tracey, October 2021

Hi Tracey, great to hear you enjoyed your stay! We would of course be delighted to welcome you back in the future. Many thanks, Anna Property Owner
David September 2021

“We have communicated with owner about issues experienced during our stay and to be fair, she reacted swiftly in dealing with the issues.”

We liked the location and with a little TLC and some investigation regarding a smell in the ground floor bathroom this property would score higher. Despite the poor weather, we still had a nice time.

- David, September 2021

Hi David, thank you for bringing the issues to my attention during my stay and glad we could get everything resolved for you. Following your stay, various improvements and refurbishments were made (the smell was also sorted!), including the installation of a cosy log burner which has been really well received, just in time for winter. After such a busy season a few things had suffered some wear and tear, and I can only apolgise for the hiccups you experienced. I pride myself on providing a comfortable home-from-home environment in a glorious location, and I'm pleased to have been able to address everything. Many thanks, Anna Property Owner
Marian September 2021

“I have rented holiday cottages with Sykes/Menai for years and never been dissapointed with a house until this one.”

Where do I start. I agree with most of what the last reviewer said except the house was clean. The dishwasher was not working and with 10 people in the house it is essential. Washing machine not working also essentail. A baby stairgate with a bolt missing at the bottom so useless! Handles coming off in your hand on bedroom door. Very badly stained carpets, uncomfortable and very shabby furniture. Pat testing on electrical appliances were over a year out of date. This was the most expensive house we have rented from Sykes/Menai and well below their usual standards.

- Marian, September 2021

Thank you for your feedback. The dishwasher has now been replaced and we also have a brand new washing machine. Thank you for reporting the issue with the stair gate. The stained carpets are being replaced in October and the PAT testing also booked in. Whilst we do our best to ensure any issues are addressed as early as possible (helpfully many smaller items can be delivered within a day or two), we need to balance this against avoiding disruption to our guests' holidays having work done on the house during their stay. It has indeed been a very busy season and the house has been extremely well used! Due to back to back bookings, the earliest opportunity for the repairs to take place is October. Please accept our apologies that the house was not up to standard during your stay. In future, we will ensure a break in bookings earlier in the season, to allow for any wear and tear/damage to be addressed more quickly. Property Owner
Paul August 2021

“The location and view are amazing but, a big but, is the house is very tired and needs a deep clean.”

From first impressions as you arrive at the front of the house with the collapsing table, the thread bare door mats and the smell of damp that hits you as you walk in you feel like you have paid too much for the house. As you go through the house you realise it is very tired and needs to be updated. The kitchen was not clean with food splatters on the wall behind the sink, tea and coffee stains on the cupboard doors. The carpets have seen better days and the main stair case is not safe for small children. Also things like the size of the towel rail in the on suite for the master bedroom are baffling, you can only fit flannels on it when there is room for a full size one, there is very little hanging space in the whole property with only coat hooks provided in some rooms, the apps on the tv have not been logged on etc… All in all the location is great but the house needs bringing up to date, perhaps you should look at the Little Fish properties down by the White Eagle or the property you pass through to get to this one, they are the standard that you should be aiming for. We see the prices have gone up for next summer without a serious refresh or rebuild it is not worth it for the view alone.

- Paul, August 2021

Thank you for the invaluable feedback. We are of course very disappointed to read your review as the property is usually very highly rated. Unfortunately, towards the end of the summer season, things do tend to get very well used! We have replaced the indoor mats, and the carpet unfortunately was the victim of a leak and is being replaced in October (and we have a decorator booked). The collapsing table is a hand-made African tripod table, to hold the visitors book and guest information in the hallway ready for your arrival. The cleaning standard is usually exceptionally high (as can been seen from other reviews) and we are pleased that subsequent guests have had a great holiday. We can only apologise that you weren't 100% satisfied with your stay rest assured, have taken your feedback on board. Many thanks. Property Owner
Diana August 2021

“Ideal for large family group, with dogs, many bedrooms and bathrooms.”

It is quite remote, best for outdoors type people. Fantastic views. Good beaches are only a few minutes drive away. Minor problem with some kit, but we believe these are sorted now. Takeaway in village needs cash, no deliveries.

- Diana, August 2021
Polly Jul 2021

“We knew we were going to fall in love with Pant Yr Hyman from the moment we spotted it in the distance.”

From it's beautiful clifftop location to the welcoming, comfortable and well equipped interior, the property didn't disappoint in any way. We were able to enjoy gentle walks down to the cove, invigorating swims and rock pool explorations when the weather was fine; wild and windy coastal walks to local pubs when the weather was on the turn; and cosy time hunkering down with family and friends in the property when the weather was more extreme, watching movies, playing games and listening to the sound of the ocean crashing outside. The house enjoys a spot that is surrounded by nature, allowing peace and quiet and stunning views. It feels remote, yet shops and restaurants, pubs and activities are all within easy reach, and for those looking for more adventure and are happy to travel a little further, Snowdonia is reachable in well under an hour. The coastal path literally passes the door and coasteering opportunities are excellent in the area. The house itself was perfect for our family of 4 and our friends' family of 4, with plenty of space for everyone, including a lovely area outside to watch the sunset. The amount of thought that has gone into ensuring that the house has everything you need is evident and it was clear that any minor issues that have arisen over the summer season have been addressed promptly by the owners. Pant Yr Hyman is a real gem to be enjoyed in all seasons and we can't wait to return.

- Polly, Jul 2021
Jules (and family) Jul 2021

“We stayed at Pant Yr Hyman and had a real break from it all.”

The house itself was perfect for our families: comfortable, warm, plenty of space for socialising and a very well provisioned kitchen. The location was perfect, breathtaking views and a sense of remoteness but conveniently located not far for amenities. There is a wonderful coastal walk to the beach and pub. The property owner Anna was very helpful and responsive to any questions etc. Would highly recommend and definitely love to come back again!

- Jules (and family), Jul 2021
Emer June 2021

“Wonderful, spacious and homely house nestled in the midst of the most amazing rocky coastline.”

The location is breath taking and the sound of the sea 24/7 is bliss. With direct access to the coastal walk from the garden you can roam the cliffs, coves and headland as early or as late in the day as takes your fancy. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need which is a pleasant surprise for a holiday home. We have never, ever booked the same holiday home twice but having stayed here I cannot think of anywhere else I would rather be to get a break away from the bustle of everyday life.

- Emer, June 2021
Richard October 2020

“Pant yr Hyman Is a beautiful house set up a long private lane and right on the coastal path With stunning views all around,and has a large garden with bench seating and barbecue which were used several times during our stay in October.”

The property is large and very roomy, the kitchen is fantastic and very well equipped,just off this is a utility/drying room with a second large refrigerator and separate freezer along with a microwave oven. The lounge is massive with open fireplace along with a dining table that seats 10 people, next to this is a second lounge/reading room all having access to the outside. All the bedrooms are large and very comfortable with spectacular views of the sea and surrounding area. All in all this is a property that doesn’t stop giving and in our opinion is fantastic value for money.

- Richard, October 2020
Martin September 2020

“The cottage was really big plenty of room and wanted for nothing in kitchen ,the views from the upstairs bedroom and balcony was breath taking.”

Plenty of walks both ways from cottage along the coast .We will definitely book here again ,we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

“Sorry we broke the washing line!”

Everything about the house was perfect for our large family. The kitchen was really well equipped. The only negative was the sink in the en suite bathroom seemed blocked therefore it wouldn’t drain properly.

- Julie, August 2020

Please don't worry about the washing line. We will get both this and the sink sorted out ASAP. Glad you enjoyed your stay! We pride ourselves on providing a home-from-home environment for our guests and this includes having everything you need to cook for your family. Property Owner
Richard July 2020

“Fantastic location, with stunning views all round.”

Great walks from the cottage. Most places on the island are easily accessible from the cottage. The cottage is not high-spec but was comfortable, clean, well equipped and very spacious - so perfect for a family holiday. The walk from the cottage along the coastal path is beautiful.

- Sarah, February 2020
Helen Olney Feb 2020

“We stayed in your splendidly spacious house with the most amazing sea views!”

It was all gorgeously decorated And well equipped for 10 people staying there. Proper cooking was possible in the kitchen and a useful Utility room had a washing machine for muddy Coastal Path clothes. Plenty of bathrooms and toilets for everyone so all in all it makes a great getaway place for families and groups. Thank you!

Millie October 2019

“The house is in a stunning location and the lay out of the house was perfect for our party of 6 adults and 3 children.”

The main bedroom is just amazing!. However we would like to draw your attention to the folllowing 2 x radiators weren’t working The window in the ground floor family bathroom needs insulating. Any heat from the towel rail is completely negated by the cold draft, making the room very cold. Small point . - but the kettle needs replacing.

- Millie, October 2019

Thank you for your feedback and sorry to hear things weren’t 100% during your recent stay. The radiators have now been fixed and we have someone there this week to look into the window - the hinge is a bit rusty (a common problem with all the salt!) so it doesn’t always close very easily; it may have been this but we will definitely get it looked at. We are so pleased you enjoyed the stunning views and the master bedroom, and that the layout worked well for you and your party. Property Owner

Alexander August 2019

“Great location.”

Lovely house. The only issue was the rubbish left by the previous occupant which was still there when we arrived, and no-one collected the rubbish during the week that we were there. The house info stated that someone would come up on Sunday to do this, but this did not happen. We ended up taking all of our recycling to a nearby recycling centre (except the plastic which was not accepted there).

- Alexander, August 2019
Karen August 2019

“We have had the most amazing family holiday at Pant yr Hyman holiday home.”

The House was perfect. It was so much like home from home. All the decoration was so welcoming, it is well- equipped including lots of games. The house location was everything we wanted. The coastal path and little coves were excellent to explore- we were not ready to come home after a week! Menia Holiday Cottages have provided an easy to use service. They were excellent on our return as i had no idea i had left something of value at the property. I had a call on our way home and it is being posted out to me as i write- thank you. Cannot receommend them enough.

- Karen, August 2019
Elaine July 2019

“We had a lovely time while staying at Pant Yr Hyman.”

The kitchen is well equipped, the beds were clean and comfortable. The house is lovely, everyone enjoyed their stay.Their were lots of board games and toys for younger children, you could join the coastal path right outside and the views are beautiful.

- Elaine, July 2019
Tess June 2019

“Our family of three generations (and our dog) stayed here over a long weekend, and it was perfect.”

The property is very close to the coast with unbelievable views, gorgeous wild flowers everywhere and easy access to the coastal path. The property has two sections to it with two staircases so it's really handy for large groups. It has a well stocked play room, Mamas & Papas high chair, stair gate and travel cot, great for our toddler. Two sitting rooms, again great for large groups, plenty of bathrooms and the kitchen has everything you could need. The master bedroom is huge with stunning views and large windows. You can reach everywhere quite easily by car - Trearddur Bay is less than 10 minutes away, a large Tesco / Morrisons etc is also about 10 or 15 minutes away and Rhoscolyn has a really nice pub. Sykes were brilliant from start to finish, couldn't be happier! Will certainly book again.

- Ivo Schut, Jul 2018
Jul 2018

“The location of the cottage and the views onto the lake are beautifully peaceful, remote and serene.”

However, the cottage itself is in need of some rejuvenation (e.g. new sofa and armchairs needed, water tank above spare room is filling up very slowly and noisily over a long period of time) and the whole place needs a thorough top to bottom deep clean. The drive up to the cottage/ back onto the road is really quite off-road-ish and can easily present an issue for less confident drivers/ not off road suitable cars.

- , Jul 2018
Mark Griffiths Jul 2018

“This "cottage", actually a large house, was perfect for us all.”

Part of the house was a great suite of rooms for our daughter, son in law and their 3 children. Another bedroom together with its bathroom worked well for our son and his partner. The enormous master bedroom (and en-suite) was brilliant for us. The large kitchen, lounge with dining area and second lounge worked well for daytime use. Spotlessly clean, well equipped with the most spectacular views and wonderfully quiet.

Rosamund Bowles May 2018

“Super location.”

If the bedrooms had been more equal is standard and had all had storage for clothes (I.e. wardrobes and chests of drawers) we would have given it 5 stars. We feel it isn't reasonable to have to live out of your suitcase. The kitchen was well equipped - enough of everything. It would have been nice if the heating had been on before we arrived as the house was cold and we couldn't get warmed up without any form of secondary heating. There is an open fire but no logs or kindling. After driving 300 miles to get there, we weren't going out to get any.

- Rosamund Bowles, May 2018

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you are not 100% satisfied when arriving at the property. Whilst there is hanging space and drawers as a minimum in each room, we will look at the option of providing further storage for the smaller rooms. We do provide kindling and logs but not during the summer months. Apologies for any inconvenience to you and your family and friends. Property Owner

“Pant yr Hyman is in a spectacular position.”

The peace and quiet is almost deafening!! Just what the doctor ordered when life gets stressful. The sitting room had a bit of a 70's vibe to it with the big slate fireplace and teak furniture. Not really to my taste but comfortable enough. We have had two short stays at Lligwy Beach cottage and I adored it there. I think the house needs a bit of updating if I am honest, but it was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Great place for a large group of family and friends and a pretty garden to have afternoon tea in. We loved walking along the coastal path and to the coves in the opposite direction. I think The Famous Five would have a brilliant time here!

- Helen, Jul 2016

Thanks for your feedback and we love the reference to Enid Blyton- sums it up perfectly!!

The property

This much-loved stone cottage family home in the sought-after village of Rhoscolyn offers the best of both worlds.

You can enjoy the feeling of seclusion surrounded by 360 degree views of the coast and mountains, and walk, swim or paddle from the holiday house to quiet coves, arches & caves, yet you are only a short drive to the popular seaside villages of Trearddur Bay (or walk along the coastal path) and Rhosneigr.

The beautiful beaches at Rhoscolyn and The White Eagle, a popular gastro pub, are a dramatic walk around the headland along the coastal path.

You’ll see both the black and white arches in their full splendour, as well as passing a blow hole, an ancient holy well, unusual and colourful rock formations and if you’re lucky you’ll also see some seals.

Not to mention the spectacular views across the beautiful island of Anglesey and over to Snowdonia, which can also be enjoyed whilst relaxing on the balcony and watching the sun set over the sea.

The location of this home is superb.

The spacious and well equipped modern kitchen has underfloor heating, a range cooker, dishwasher, fridge freezer, microwave and toaster.

There is a round table with 6 chairs. The large sitting room has big double aspect windows to make the most of the magnificent views, comfy sofas set around an open fire and a TV.

To one side there is a large dining table with seating for 10.

There is also a second sitting room/snug with a sofa and TV. There are 5 bedrooms.

On the ground floor there is a twin bedroom and bathroom with bath and shower over, loo and wash hand basin.

There is also a loo and wash hand basin by the utility room which houses the washing machine. A staircase leads from the snug to a double bedroom and a child's bedroom which has a single bed and a gallery bed above.

The staircase from the main hall leads to a twin bedroom with it's own balcony overlooking the coast, and the spacious master bedroom with a king size bed and ensuite shower room.

There is also a seating area where the views are even more amazing.

The stairs from the hall lead to the family bathroom. There is a lovely garden with direct access to the coastal footpath, and parking for up to 6 cars. To make your stay at Pant Yr Hyman that much more memorable, you can arrange for supply of a hot tub to help you unwind, relax and enjoy the sunset during your stay (£275 per week, subject to availability).

About the location

RHOSCOLYN

Valley 2 miles; Trearddur Bay 3 miles; Holyhead 5 miles.

Located on Holy Island, three miles from Trearddur Bay, Rhoscolyn is a small village with a church and primary school and is the most southerly place on Holy Island. Rhoscolyn also offers an excellent pub on the lane down to the beach, which is renowned for its gastro food, and the beach itself with its slipway, ideal for small dinghies and power boats, is a popular family destination throughout the summer owing to the sheltered cove and gently sloping sands. Also excellent cliff-top walks can be enjoyed and an abundance of wildlife can be seen, often including seals on the headland. Just two miles away is the village of Valley, which has a Post Office, chemist, shops and eating places, plus the nearby resort of Trearddur Bay is situated on the western shore of the island and is truly beautiful with a great sweep of low grassy coastline indented with rocky coves and fine Blue Flag sandy beaches.
