“We had a lovely week with our 3 Grandsons.”

A perfect cottage for 5 of us with plenty of room. Kitchen was well equipped, everything needed to cater for a family. And the views were amazing!! I had 2 very sad boys who didn't want to leave.

“As mentioned by previous tenants the cooker needs replacing as the dials are not readable ,this is dangerous .”

The property was reasonably clean but had cobwebs and the glazed door from the living room was dirty. The most annoying was the hot water ,and trying to get a shower of a reasonable temperature .There must be something wrong with the boiler ,as this problem cannot just be us .I left a phone message on the first morning I am still waiting for an answer.

“Really enjoyed our stay.”

Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment, though oven was tricky as controls had lost labels and struggled to get it very hot. Terrace was lovely to sit at and the glass edge helped keep us out of the wind. Stunning views!

“Everything was fine overall.”

Shower was a bit temperamental, one minute scolding hot and then 5 minutes later nothing but tepid heat. Internet connection dropped out quite a few times and wasn't sufficiently stable for using Amazon Prime TV. For basic internet on our phones/laptops it was fine once connected. We were pleased with the range of kitchen items, especially pots & pans. We cooked most evenings for 5 people and found the kitchen area & facilities were excellent. We were happy with our accommodation and thought it was excellent value for money compared with previous accommodation we have hired in North Wales & Anglesey (this was our fourth holiday cottage in the area in the ten years). I would recommend to others for these reasons: 1 - location is perfect for travel into Anglesey, quickly into Snowdon area, also beaches & castles of North Wales. Everything in less than an hour's drive. Fantastic range of supermarkets in Bangor within 10-minute drive, plus Drive through fast food when you don't want to cook. 2 - layout of house was great, and ideal for small family + grandparents. Nice kitchen/diner area. 3 - peace & quiet, and safe play area for kids in front of the house. 4 - pub & food within 5-minute walk (albeit steep uphill walk home!) 5 - represents fair value for money Shower was a bit temperamental, one minute too hot and then 5 minutes later nothing but tepid heat. Internet connection dropped out a few times. For basic internet on our phones & laptops it was fine once connected.

“The views are fantastic The cottage was lovely and big The beds were the most comfortable i have been on in a long time, and i loved the pillows, i must admit i took a peak so i know where to buy them from.”

I would recommend this cottage to anyone you will not be disappointed

Sonia June 2024

“Our stay at the cottage was really comfortable, it was well equipped, very comfortable settees & beds.”

Fantastic views from the property & a lovely deck area too. A really good location for exploring the area. Mr & Mrs Hughes were really helpful when just after we vacated the property we got a puncture (no spare etc) they saw us on the side of the road & went out of their way to try & help. Green Flag came to our rescue but it was wonderful to not feel abandoned. A neighbour on Bush Lane also kindly helped us with tea & parking while waiting for recovery.

“Excellent. Family group aged 4 to 86.”

Nigel March 2024

“The property was fantastic, roomy and spacious, fully equipped with good quality furnishings.”

We could not ask for more and the view over the Menai Straits looking at Anglesey was uninterrupted and amazing. The owners live on site, but did not bother us only to ask if we wanted anything to please let them know. We can thoroughly recommend this cottage to anyone who wants a quiet stay away from it all, but near enough to facilities.

“I agree witrh others that the pictures and description do not do this place justice.”

Very comfortable cottage. the first impresion with not being able to open the front door as we could not turn the key was quickly amended when we found a spacious cottage which was clean and comfortable. The two bathrooms one with a bath and one with a shower made life very easy for us staying and the good sized kitchen quickly became a family focal pointy. Even tho' I was relagated to the lower bunk. ( I am 68 BTW) this too was comfortable One final but minor grip was that the ,arkings on the oven had over the years worn away so that operating the oven was guesswork. We finally sorted it by our last day and suggest that the owners keep some guides for this and the washer and other equipment 8in a convenient folder. Other than that would and have already recommended this cottage

Tina July 2022

“We were welcomed by the owners on the day to go through a few things, they then gave us our space to enjoy the holiday.”

Penrallt Farm had everything we needed for our holiday even a few dish washer tablets were left out for us. The locality of the cottage was perfect as a base to visit the local attractions.

- Tina, July 2022
Emma July 2022

“As previous reviews have said, the photos do not do this place justice and the listing needs updating.”

It was much bigger than we were expecting, I believe it is what is called a Welsh longhouse, the foot print was huge. It was clean, spacious and well equipped and one of the best we have stayed in (have stayed in quite a few). There is a fantastic raised decking area to the side of the property which we used on several evenings, enjoying the fabulous views across the Menai Straits. This is not even mentioned in the listing and was one of the biggest assets. There are also no photos of the bathroom and shower room which put me off slightly when booking but fortunately my worry was unfounded. The location is perfect for visiting both Angelsey and North Wales and the village has several good places to eat just a short walk away. Would recommend the pub and Thai restaurant. Only criticism is the track leading to the cottage is rough, especially if you have a low car. There was also no visitors book which would be a good addition. Overall a great stay, thank you.

Deborah October 2021

“The pictures do not do this place justice.”

It is far more spacious and comfortable than I imagined. We were 2 families staying together and this worked well with the boys sharing the bunkbed and adults having a double room each. The views are amazing despite the wet weather we had. I would follow the advice and go into Y Felinheli before heading to the cottage as it is a very narrow single track the other way. The one thing that would be an advantage is a tumble dryer. There is a washing machine and a clothes airer available. We would definitely recommend the Hydeout smokehouse on Anglesey a short drive away and also a rib ride on the Menai Straight. The owners were very friendly and accommodating and came promptly when we needed a light bulb replaced. An all round fantastic stay.

- Deborah, October 2021
Gillian October 2021

“The cottage was lovely and very spacious.”

Loved the views and the peaceful surroundings. Owners were friendly and helpful. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would definitely go back for another stay. Just wish they accepted dogs as we would have loved to enjoy the company of our two dogs there. It was home from home.

- Gillian, October 2021
Alan October 2021

“Very good, well positioned cottage, clean and tidy satisfied all our requirements.”

Just needs a few loads of gravel on the rough roadway then I could give it another star

- Alan, October 2021
Penny August 2021

“Amazing cottage with great views over to Anglesey.”

Cottage had everything you could need, although the WiFi was a little spotty in the bedrooms. The bed in the end bedroom was very hard. No leaflets or local information (maybe due to COVID?) but google was great and loads to do in the area for our 11 and 15yr olds, Greenwood family park and Aber falls well worth a visit. Hydeout smoke house on Anglesey is definitely worth it, food was great with relaxed welcoming atmosphere.

- Penny, August 2021
Matthew July 2021

“Lovely place to stay, the photographs don’t do it justice.”

Loved the raised deck with its view over the Straits. The couple of small issues we had whilst staying were sorted promptly by the owners.

- Matthew, July 2021
Ian July 2021

“The facilities provided made for a very enjoyable, comfortable stay.”

The view is stunning from Penrallt. There is a lovely sundeck, not pictured, that was a great addition. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We were lucky to have great weather, very warm and settled the week we were there. Penrallt is a good base for driving to Anglesey and Llanberis/Snowdonia. It is located in a beautiful, semi rural setting. We would definitely go back there. You cannot go wrong

- Ian, July 2021
David June 2021

“We enjoyed stay in cottage , found it very comfortable.”

Had a job to work microvave but in the end worked it out. The things l didn't like was the very heavy duvet being used to a feather light cover. And the bumping up and down the track to the cottage became a headache. Needs the whole area smoothed over. In all we had a lovely time. Thankyou.

- David, June 2021
Jen June 2021

“Really lovely property with amazing views over the Menai Straits.”

Jen September 2020

“The location was cracking; the accommodation lovely.”

Warm and cosy when the chill set in and sufficiently stocked with immediate essentials Y Felinheli is a lovely little coastal village that I know well, so to spot this cottage on Sykes was great! In addition to the high quality accommodation, on the doorstep you’ll find: farm land, coastline, footpaths, Thai food, fish and chips, tapas, two pubs, and a coffee shop all within 10 minutes of the front door. There’s also a local convenience store with a post office, or a large Tesco 10minute drive away. All that and a cute elevated verandah with sunset views out along the straits......what more could you ask for?! We’d had to move the booking from our original dates in March due to “you know what” so we were really pleased to have this stay to look forward to - the cottage was great, and we would be very happy to recommend to others. Thank you.

- Jen, September 2020
Nigel September 2020

“The cottage is stunning with everything you could need for a fabulous holiday.”

The utility room was a fabulous drying room without ever putting on the heating. The views on a clear dry day across the Menai were amazing, even on a wet day they weren’t bad either

- Nigel, September 2020
Lucy August 2020

“We had a lovely week at Penrallt Cottage.”

We’ve been holidaying in Wales for years but still discovering new places. Newborough woods and beach were amazing, parking in the woods to get to the beach is a long walk but you can take bikes which we did. We also cycled to Caernarfon on the Lon Las Menai cycle route which was nice and flat, great for the kids. The cottage is very well equipped, great living space and a lovely big kitchen with everything you need, we cooked most nights. The shower is great and the wood burner was lovely and cosy in the evenings. Not shown in the pictures is a beautiful raised decking area where we sat and had dinner most nights taking in the gorgeous view of the Menai Straight and Anglesey, and watching the sun set. The owners were very friendly and welcoming and easily contactable. The only thing that would have made it a perfect stay was the beds, the bed in the far bedroom was very hard and it really could have done with one king size bed at least. The children could feel the springs in the mattresses in the bunk bed and had to sleep on the duvets for comfort. Overall though we really enjoyed our holiday.

- Lucy, August 2020

Thank you for your feedback and the owner has confirmed that the two single mattresses have now been replaced. Property Owner

“As we were away at the end of November/beginning of December in North Wales, the weather was more than likely to be cold!”

However, the Cottage was superb and WARM! It is the first time in 50+ years that we have visited Wales and not felt rain! The Cottage is ideally placed overlooking the Menai Straits - what a view for meals! There was every amenity included that was necessary for a relaxing break. It was great having the owners close by - and delightful to meet him. Thank you Sykes - and thank you to the owners of the Cottage! We hope to return again to recharge our batteries!

- Jane, November 2019
Robert October 2019

“Lovely views.”

Very spacious. Helpful and friendly owners.

- Robert, October 2019
Peter August 2019

“Owner was very helpful regarding any questions we had and he even advised us on a bike ride to the nearest town, which we took advantage of.”

Two times! Lovely cottage, lovely views, would recommend it to anyone visiting North Wales. The walk/ride up the hill to the cottage is high, this was no problem for us but might be worth a mention to any 'infirm' people! Great stay, thank you

- Peter, August 2019
R July 2019

“Beautiful location.”

Excellent facilities, cottage very spacious with all amenities. Great shower room and bathroom. Lots for our great grandchildren to do in the local area without having to drive for miles.

- R, July 2019
Anne July 2019

“The cottage was fine and the views splendid.”

The addition of a free standing viewing platform with table and chairs added greatly to the overall enjoyment of the holiday. The shower was great although the doors to both the shower room and the bathroom were a little ill fitting. The beds were comfortable although we would have preferred king size rather than double sized beds. The provision of cutlery was poor - both in terms of the amount and the quality. Drinking glasses also need to be up-graded - there was a mixture of fairly poor quality glasses, very few of which matched - especially the wine glasses. The TV is also rather old fashioned. Overall, however, these were small issues. We had a lovely holiday and enjoyed the environment offered by the cottage.

- Anne, July 2019
Carol July 2019

“Lovely cottage with a view of the Menai Strait, our hosts were very friendly and helpful.”

The Cottage is up a hill with a very sharpe turn, and to walk to the village has a sharp incline down although further along the road between the houses is a pathway with steps. The cottage itself is lovely, although none of the inner doors close properly especially on the shower room. It was great having two bathrooms, one with shower the other a bath with hand held shower, this perhaps would have been better with shower over bath.

- Carol, July 2019
David June 2019

“Fantastic cottage fantastic views cottage had all we needed and more”

- David, June 2019
Bill May 2019

“The owners were friendly and very helpful.”

The cottage is in a beautiful setting overlooking the Menai Straits. Certain improvements could be made: - Mattresses in bunk beds had uncomfortable springs - Most of the internal doors were ill-fitting and several were impossible to close - External door locks need renewing (a comment also made by a previous occupant some time ago). Owner did come round with some WD40 style spray when requested but this is likely to be ongoing. - Grab rails in shower and bath would be a great help A lovely, well equipped cottage with pleasant owners.

Ilene September 2018

“A delightful cottage which is very tastefully and thoughtfully appointed.”

Spacious and had everything we needed. The owners who live next door are friendly and very helpful. The cottage has beautiful views across the Menai Strait to Anglesey and great sunsets. Local amenities and places to dine out not far away. All the attractions of Snowdonia are within easy reach. A beautiful base, so much to see and do. We hope to return.

- Ilene, September 2018
Andrew August 2018

“Owners were very friendly and helpful.”

Cottage was in good order and we had a very nice time. Would very much recommend staying at Penrallt cottage with it's great views and ideal location for exploring N and Central Wales. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

- Andrew, August 2018
Robert June 2018

“Property is generally very nice, however, both external doors were difficult to lock and unlock especially for older persons or those with less hand mobility.”

Also the bathroom and bedroom doors although quirky, were warped, again, making difficult to open and close. The shower/wc door is of a sliding type in similar construction to the others and was difficult to close and also very noisy especially at night, as the bottom of the door rubbed on the plaster adjacent. Also, on the last night when trying to get a good sleep for a long drive back, the owner's dog decided to bark and eventually stopped at 12.20 am. An apology was forthcoming the following morning but this didn't really help having spoiled what had been an enjoyable week. I would now think twice about going back!!!!

It is ideally situated for visiting the many attractions close by.

- Pam, May 2017
Stuart August 2016

“My wife and I have booked with Sykes before, the first time in 2000, and have been well satisfied with the results.”

This cottage, however, exceeded even our expectations and we’d recommend it to anyone. Lots of room, privacy, facilities, view, location – marvellous! Should we choose to be in North Wales again our first act would be to see if the cottage was available and be rightly disappointed if not. However, having booked a cottage in Cornwall through Sykes two weeks earlier and remembering our first Sykes Cottage in 2000, we’d be confident of satisfaction anyway but this one? Wow!

- Stuart, August 2016

- Liessa, September 2013
Tom August 2013

“It is a wonderful view from a wonderful cottage.”

This has been the highlight of our stay so far in the UK. We love the look of the old exterior, but the interior is modern clean and very comfortable. The location up on a hill is great, and makes it feel as though we are miles from town, yet the drive to shopping and dining is short. The location is also convenient to Caernarfon and Conwy, and we even made a quick run to Holyhead. I would suggest that those travelling to the UK spend less time in London and more time here in North Wales, we wish we had!

- Tom, August 2013
John February 2013

- Noel, May 2011
Gordon April 2011

“It was a lovely cottage in an excellent location with outstanding views.”

The location of the cottage meant that the many attractions of North Wales were all within a short driving distance. The good weather at the beginning of May was an added bonus and overall this was a cottage that we will have to return to.

- Gordon, April 2011
John April 2011

“The property was suitable for the whole family - elderly parents, children in their twenties and us 'middle-agers'!”

The views were stunning and constantly changing. There was something to see even when the weather wasn't as good as it might have been. The bungalow itself was such a pleasure to stay in or return to after a day out.
