“We loved this house it really did feel like home.”

We had two nights of very stormy weather and we noticed that a little water was coming in through the top of the window frames in the master suite bedroom and in the living room just so the owners are aware but it didn’t cause us any problems. We were very comfortable, everyone had plenty of space and we really enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again in the future. Such beautiful views and a great location too. Thank you for the lovely gift basket also.

Hazel September 2024

“The property was perfect for our extended family to celebrate my parents 80th birthdays.”

The house was beautiful, the location amazing and the views were stunning. The owners seemed to have thought of everything. The only issue we had was the shower in the en-suite to the main bedroom didn’t run hot. Everything else was just perfect

- Hazel, September 2024

Thank you for your kind words. We are so pleased your family enjoyed your celebrations! We certainly agree that the property is great for extended family gatherings. You are all welcome back any time. Property Owner

“Lovely break at Dol Fraint .”

The only issue we had was lack of information regarding the heating and there were a few Luke warm showers . The house was clean and perfect for a family get together and I would recommend it and would love to return.

- John, December 2023

Thank you very much for your feedback - we will add information about the heating for any future guests. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back any time! Property Owner
Serina December 2023

“Dol Fraint had everything we needed for our family (8 adults, 1 child) Christmas break.”

A very well equipped house in a beautiful location, Dol Fraint exceeded our expectations and we had a very comfortable stay. The Christmas decorations and welcome pack (including homemade mince pies) were a thoughtful touch. Great communication from the property owner whenever I had a question. I would definitely recommend this property. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

- Serina, December 2023

We are so glad you chose to stay with us for Christmas and that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you very much for your feedback we very much appreciate it! Property Owner
Dave October 2023

“Very well equipped, particularly comfortable, exceptionally roomy, warm, quiet, fabulous views, delightful to sit outside in the sun, can't think of a single negative (other than than the tight bend at the top of the drive - but that is being very picky!”

!)

- Dave, October 2023

We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. We very much appreciate your kind words and would love to welcome you back any time! Property Owner
David September 2023

“Perfect house in a perfect location overlooking the Welsh mountains.”

Everything you needed was provided and the welcoming basket of goodies was delicious. The only minor problem was the toilet and shower in the main upstairs bathroom was slow to drain. However with 3 alternative bathrooms this wasn't a big issue even with a party of 9

- David, September 2023

Thank you very much for your lovely review, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us! Thank you for drawing our attention to the maintenance needed - all sorted now. We hope you choose to return to Anglesey ond day. Property Owner
Jan August 2023

“Dol Fraint is the most beautiful holiday rental we have stayed in after many years of renting family sized homes.”

The views, the house and the facilities were perfect for us. It was clean and fresh when we arrived and we soon settled in. We will definitely recommend Dol Fraint to others! Thank you.

- Jan, August 2023

Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to a small family business like ours! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope you choose to return one day! Property Owner
Patrick July 2023

“The place was lovely.”

We had a really nice time in beautiful Anglesey. The photos did not do justice to the spacious house/ the views. A few maintenance issues you may want to deal with which didn’t spoil our enjoyment. The main ones are: (1) broken blind in twin en-suite (2) broken toilet in master bedroom (3) dishwasher not functioning properly (the tablet seems to emerge unused) (4) toilet seat in downstairs bathroom (5) chair in lounge (armrest comes off)

- Patrick, July 2023

Thank you very much for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for drawing our attention to the maintenance issues, we will get them sorted! Property Owner
Mark July 2023

“The most fabulous house in a unique setting, overlooking Snowdonia.”

Nothing not to like.

- Mark, July 2023

Thank you so much for your kind words, we certainly agree with you - it is a special setting. We hope you choose to return to stay again! Property Owner
Emyr July 2023

“We thoroughly enjoyed our family stay at Dol Fraint, the house is very spacious and well-appointed with more than enough room for everyone.”

We enjoyed playing with the grandchildren in the back garden with the Snowdonia Mountains as a backdrop; the occasional distant train passing by was an additional point of interest for the grandchildren. The house is very well located with easy access onto the A5 expressway from Star making it easy to travel by car to many of the local attractions and the shops of Llanfair Pwll are relatively close by car.

- Emyr, July 2023

Thank you very much for your feedback. We are very glad that you enjoyed your family holiday with us and hope you come back to visit again. Diolch! Property Owner
Paula May 2023

“Booked this house at the last minute for 6 adults and 3 children after having our original accommodation cancelled….”

A blessing in disguise this turned out to be. The house is amazing! Very spacious and fully equipped. It has everything included you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. A lovely safe garden with amazing views and the weather was on our side for us to enjoy it. Would 100% recommend and would love to return.

- Paula, May 2023

Thank you very much for your feedback- some things are certainly meant to be! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and would be happy to welcome you back any time! Property Owner
Holly April 2023

“We had a fabulous stay at Dol Fraint, the house was very clean and spacious for our group of 9 with incredible views.”

Lots of room for parking and ample outside furniture with all bedding and towels provided. We were hoping to use the bbq provided in the garage but weren’t too confident on connecting the gas so that would be the only thing to check if you were planning to use! We would definitely return - thank you!

- Holly, April 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback! We are very glad that you all had a fabulous stay with us and hope very much that you come back to stay with us! Property Owner

- Karen, September 2022

Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We would love to welcome your family back anytime! Property Owner

Lesley May 2022

“Lovely holiday accommodation but cleanliness needs to looked at very very dusty glass .”

doors needed polishing and skirting boards needed wiping for what we paid we expect a better finish ..we could write our names in the dust sorry but we would not book it again

- Lesley, May 2022
Clare May 2022

“Beautiful house which had everything you might need.”

Great location. Perfect for little ones. Best house we have stayed in on Anglesey.

- Clare, May 2022
Amy April 2022

“We had a lovely stay.”

The house was spacious, clean and well equipped. The cake that was left for us as we arrived was also delicious!! The garden was amazing with lovely views. I would love to come back in the summer and spend some more time there. The house is well located for all that Angelsey and North Wales has to offer. We will definitely be back soon!

- Amy, April 2022
Damian February 2022

“Dol Fraint is a beautiful house in a very convenient and scenic location.”

We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the house and the very high standard of the fixtures and fittings. The photos of the house on Sykes website don't really do it justice. The view from the back of the house was beautiful - again much better than we were expecting. The only slight issue was that we had to stagger shower times as 7 people needing showers in the morning quickly drained the hot water. Using the boost on the heating system and having quick showers sorted this. Would definitely stay again, hopefully when there aren't two storms in the same week!

- Damian, February 2022
Amna September 2021

“We have just had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house in a stunning location.”

All amenities close by. Lovely spacious kitchen dining and living area, all cupboards were well equipped with everything you would need. We will definately be returning in the future. Thank you!

- Amna, September 2021

“Struggled to get hot water for a shower once one had used the shower water ran cold”

- Janine, June 2021
Margaret August 2020

“Communication with Sykes customer relations called Kelley was not friendly but very abrupt.”

Said she would ring back but didn’t, It did get sorted in the end when someone from another department rang on the day we were due to go. She was very helpful and understanding. But on a positive note the house we booked was lovely and we have booked to go again next year.

- Margaret, August 2020
Kath July 2020

“The House is a really good size for large family groups, everyone could find their own space and it was very well equipped and clean.”

The views to the front of the house are spectacular and the beds were very comfortable. The garden was safe and large enough for all our ball games with the Children. It is a 5 minute drive to a local supermarket, and it was easy to travel to anywhere within Angelsey.

- Kath, July 2020
David October 2019

“We had a great time at the property and really enjoyed our time here.”

It is a very spacious, well equipped house in a lovely area and the views from the property are breath taking. We had a minor issue when we first arrived (we were not sure how to use the central heating) which the owner resolved for us very quickly.

- David, October 2019
Susan July 2019

“The house was lovely.”

Lots of space for everyone and not cluttered. Very clean too. View from the garden was spectacular. Would return for another holiday there tomorrow. The only thing we would like to see is more information about what to do with the refuse and recycling as it was not clear. Plus user manuals for the washing machine & dishwasher in the information pack at the house would have been useful. Other than that it was a lovely house. Thank you.

- Susan, July 2019
Heather May 2019

“Dol Fraint was a lovely spacious house with spectacular views.”

The photos don’t do the property justice, it’s massive. The kitchen was well equipped and the bbq was a bonus, might be useful to list it on the features so people know it’s there. The location was very central, easy to get to anywhere on the Island. The only thing that would improve it would be a hot tub on the patio to sit in and soak up the views.

- Heather, May 2019

“The property was lovely.”

The kitchen was well equipped, although there could have been a few more serving dishes and jugs (milk/cream and gravy) and there was not a large bowl to be found. The house was very clean and well presented. The Christmas decorations were lovely and made it feel very homely. The heating adjustment took a bit of working out (in the bedrooms) but the rest of the house worked fine. I would recommend the property to other members of the family and friends.

About the location

LLANFAIRPWLLGWYNGYLL

Menai Bridge 2 miles; Beaumaris 6 miles.

Affectionately known by the locals as Llanfair PG, the Anglesey village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnd robwllllantysiliogogogoch, also known by its shortened name of Llanfairpwllgwyngyll has the longest place name in Europe. It was artificially named back in 1860 as a publicity stunt for the railway station and translates from Welsh as "St Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the fierce whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio of the red cave". Situated close to the Menai Straits, just off the Britannia Bridge, Llanfair PG has much to offer families. After having your photo taken next to the village nameplate at the railway station, head into the popular visitors centre for local tourist information. A short walk past the octagonal Toll House, towards Menai Bridge, will bring you to the Marquis of Anglesey statue and column which, for a small fee, you can climb the 115 steps to the top for superb views of the countryside and coastline. Nelson’s Monument can be easily reached on the banks of the Menai Straits, passing St Mary’s Church on the way. With several good pubs with restaurants, craft and gift shops and cafes, plus the beautiful Anglesey coastline within walking distance, there is plenty to entertain you all year round.
