“Driving up to the property was very impressive, I had to dive out to the loo after a long drive and was very disappointed with the downstairs bathroom, (first impression), it needed a good scrub around the paintwork and painting, the shower looked grotty, the bin was rusty and needed renewing.”

Fortunately, the other rooms were better, although needed painting (by a professional) and updating in areas. All bedrooms were large and comfortable, the bed and bedding helped me sleep well. Unfortunately slugs got in, in the night!!!! The bbq, needed a good scrub, my husband had lipstick on his lips after using a badly washed cup! He wasn't impressed. The fridge freezer needs replacing, we couldn't open one of the freezer drawers because of ice. Shelves were missing in the fridge. ...

Fortunately, the other rooms were better, although needed painting (by a professional) and updating in areas. All bedrooms were large and comfortable, the bed and bedding helped me sleep well. Unfortunately slugs got in, in the night!!!! The bbq, needed a good scrub, my husband had lipstick on his lips after using a badly washed cup! He wasn't impressed. The fridge freezer needs replacing, we couldn't open one of the freezer drawers because of ice. Shelves were missing in the fridge. The dishwasher needs cleaning out and servicing. The grass was cut just before we arrived and just before we left, unfortunately the cut grass wasn't collected, therefore with 5 people and two dogs, cut grass was traipsed around the property needing hoovering all the time. The planters and planted area could do with some sort of gardening and not long dry grass spoiling it. The views were amazing. The hot tub was well used by the younger ones. On a positive, the property is beautiful, but could be better with updating the decor, changing the two biggest settees, and as there was only one tv in the property, could have done with a smart tv so we could at least watch netflix. There were also no games at all in the property, I usually bring them, but never had to in any other property I rented! So didn't this time. For the amount we paid to rent for the week, mid season, I would have expected the inside to be better decorated and better furnished. It's such a beautiful house and the cleaners need telling to do their job properly! Sorry to be so picky, but I am well travelled, and know what is available for the price we paid! Wifi, was good. Carpet in the hall was slippy, so we lifted it out the way, and someone before us, had swept a load of grass and leaves and dust under it, we left it there for the cleaners or owners to see!

“The Manor House was absolutely wonderful.”

It was even better than the photos and description. We loved it. It was so very comfortable and spacious and a great base to adventure off from. The garden was great with beautiful views .And the hot tub was lovely. We had everything we needed....except salt and pepper

“We arrived in the dark at 5pm, to a very warm vista!”

Lamps on in windows, a Christmas tree in the main window, very welcoming! All the rooms are big and spacious, kitchen had everything we needed, including roasting tin for the turkey, Yorkshire pudding tins, cooling trays, you name it it was here! The dogs had also been catered for, blankets, towels, dog treats and emergency dog food if required. The garden to the rear is nice and big, but as we had 2 danes with us we used the enclosed paddock to the right of the main gate as you went up the drive from the house! The dogs loved their off lead zoomies! All in All this property is absolutely amazing and definitely booking again, but maybe in the summer next time! But in saying that whilst we had a lovely lightening show across the sky out the back of property and fierce winds, some rain, it didn't dampen our whole experience, we loved being at The Manor House in every way! Thank you!

“What fantastic accommodation.”

A truly beautiful place to stay with great rooms & views. The hot tub has the best view of the jets practicing from the nearby RAF base! I have marked down slightly on cleanliness & facilities/maintenance due to the obvious damp on some of the walls, with patchy paintwork to try & cover some of it. There was some mould on the grout/sealant in the bathrooms as well. There were limited utensils in the kitchen - no baking trays for instance. There also weren't any books or boardgames/cards available, as I'd expect in a cottage of this standard.

“This property needs to be closed down and given an overhaul of decoration and cleaning.”

I would even go so far to say the furniture in the living room was well below par. There was a black stain where people had been resting their heads whilst relaxing on the largest sofa. The damp issue was far from good - having to use a de-humidifier in the downstairs bedroom was unbelievable (this needed to be emptied every night). The damp is an issue all through the downstairs with water actually flowing down the walls. You can see where maintenance have tried to paint over the marks but have made it obvious there is a problem. The kitchen is not laid out in the best way with hardly any worktop space and the utensils actually placed on the worktops, being dirty. On arrival we noticed the fridge-freezer was leaking and needed de-frosting. The downstairs shower room could not be used as the shower screen doors kept coming away from the rails. There was a bookcase with 2 books and a DVD player with no DVD's. We were unable to cook anything that needed ingredients measuring out as there was no measuring jug. We had to wash some of the cutlery before use on our first night. We developed a rash from the hot tub, which had not been cleaned out after the last guests left that morning - it was cleaned on the Thursday but did not reach temperature until the early hours of Friday morning - it had reached 40 degrees on the day of our arrival....which proved it had not been emptied or cleaned. We had to visit a pharmacy to purchase anti-histamines and E45 cream. If the last guests had vacated 10am and we checked in at 5pm what had the cleaners been doing for 7 hours only changing the beds? Dead flies and spiders littered the conservatory and the inside of the windows looked like they had never seen water...The curtains in the living room need to be put onto the hooks properly on the patio doors and the carpet needs to be pulled up and changed or at least cleaned with an industrial carpet cleaner. There was so many stains on the carpet that we tried to keep our shoes/slippers on at all times. The internet could only be used downstairs in the living room as when you logged on upstairs the signal kept dropping. Suffice to say we did not have the best time after looking forward to our usual week away in September trying to relax - we go away every year to a cottage with a 5 star rating and a hot tub - we stayed in the Coach House 3 years ago and it was stunning, so we had high hopes for this property. I can safely say the only good things were the views, the peace and quiet and the comfortable beds.

“A fantastically spacious property with everything you would need.”

A quiet and private location, despite there being other properties at the site. Hot tub had lovely sunset views and was a great way to relax at the end of the day. Our cockapoo enjoyed the large enclosed rear garden although, unfortunately, due to the grass having been cut before our arrival, we struggled to keep grass out of the property as the cuttings stuck in his curly fur. Minor inconvenience of vacuuming more times than I'd like during a holiday!! Overall we had a fabulous stay and plan to stay again.

“Excellent place to stay,not overlooked and views of the countryside from the garden with the hot tub making an added bonus.”

Anyone who stays here with dogs will love the large secure garden and a 30 second walk away is a larger freedom pasture for a good run.Wi-Fi is excellent and the welcome pack for 2 and 4 legged animals is a beautiful addition.The only small gripe is the cushions on the chesterfield sofas are too soft and you really sink into them. Wouldn’t put us off returning though.

“Absolutely stunning, from decor to views.”

Very spacious x comfortable.

“We've just finished a week's holiday at The Manor House and we loved it.”

The welcome treats in the kitchen and milk in the fridge was a nice touch, thank you. The lounge was very comfortable, as was the bed at night, which made it feel like a home from home. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook each evening, much better than previous places we've stayed in. The accommodation is ideally situated for exploring the whole island and great to come back to the hot tub each day, which made the holiday for us! It allowed us, even on cold days to sit outside and watch the aircraft from RAF valley and enjoy the peace of the countryside around us. Only bit of feedback I guess, would be that if there were three couples staying here, we may have had to fight over the lovely comfy sofa!! One sofa was lovely and comfy with foot rest attached and the others, although nice, were not as good for lounging on and watching a film at night. Maybe a couple of nice foot stools could enhance the comfort of people relaxing in these sofas too. We stayed in here in March and the weather was cold and wet, so it was more a Winter experience rather than Spring. The house was very warm and plenty of hot water each time we needed a shower or bath. We'll definitely be repeat guests! We were sad to leave and could have done another week! Thank you, Katie and Simon

“Lovely cottage very homely for us all.”

My adult kids and dog's have never been to Anglesey, and this holiday was their Christmas present from us. They loved it, really impressed with everything. Good area where the cottage is, lovely beaches to visit for the pooches. Used Sykes Cottages about 4 times not once have we been disappointed. Do keep up the good work, and we shall be booking again. Many thanks from us all

Sue September 2022

“This is an amazing holiday let.”

The pictures, although great, do not do it justice. We could not fault the Manor House. It’s a beautiful well kept property in an amazing location. The owners have thought of everything to ensure you have a great experience there. The welcome pack of Welsh products is a really nice touch too. We hope to stay there again.

“We had a lovely relaxing holiday.”

To find a property that suited our requirements isn’t an easy task but The Manor House was ideal

- Karan, September 2022
Steve July 2022

“We loved our stay it is a lovely property perfect for larger family’s and their pets too.”

All very clean beds made up and fluffy towels for every bathroom. We enjoyed the hot tub and all the facilities and when we had queries the owners were quickly available to help out. We loved too the welcoming hospitality package wine, coffee snacks and even something for our 3 little dogs. We needed for nothing except we would have liked our own washing line. Whilst there is a communal line it was busy when we wanted to use it.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the manor house.”

The property and surrounding gardens are beautiful, the owners were helpful and everything you could need is provided. The dogs loved the free run paddock and we will definitely be returning.

“This place was incredible!”

They’re doing injustice in the pictures… it’s a huge place and the views are epic! So much better than expected. Spotlessly clean, a really generous welcome pack.. couldn’t fault anything. You won’t be disappointed!

Lucy September 2021

“Stunning location, beautiful house, garden amazing for the 3 spaniels.”

Although apologies to the sheep.... kitchen amazing and soooo much in there, however would request bigger pans. When cooking a roast for 6 adults it was a bit of a test!! Concerned about the level of damp on the walls, and also the bedding felt damp on 1st night. Main disappointment was the outside lights at the back were but working. We chose this place as it had the hot tub, but it meant we could only use during daylight. Also was difficult at the back when letting g the dogs out for pre bed wees. This was really not good.

- Lucy, September 2021

Many thanks for your review. I am glad you enjoyed your stay at the Manor House, we will purchase some bigger pans as suggested. Regarding the damp, this is a problem with historic buildings built in stone and rubble that are over 150 years old and have extremes of weather in rural locations, they just weren’t designed for modern day living and the water from showers, cooking etc condenses on the cold walls making them seem damp. I am sure you will agree this was in one very small section of a very large house and we do continue the battle to mitigate it!! We are sorry about the outside lighting, unfortunately things do get damaged during the year and it’s not always possible to immediately repair them. We do provide torches in the property as we appreciate it’s rural and there is natural lighting onto the hot tub from the windows as well as in the hot tub itself. We do back onto a nature reserve, so the lighting is only ever low level, as we want to encourage the wildlife to thrive (we have red squirrels, buzzards and hares living on the property and many other visitors including owls, red kites and egrets). We hope you are joking about the sheep? Farming is a livelihood here and although you may know your dogs are friendly, the sheep and farmer don’t! We do ask that dogs are kept under control in the garden (which is secured with a livestock fence) and provide access to separate paddocks should you need somewhere more secure to run your dogs.

“Beautiful, spacious and tasteful property with a large enclosed garden.”

Very peaceful location but handy to get to the stunning beaches nearby. Would definitely recommend!

“Lovely place to stay.”

“Our party consisted of 6 adults and 5 dogs and each and every one of us had a fantastic holiday.”

The accommodation is exceptional from the rooms, facilities and grounds to even the beds. Everything provided, including a very generous welcome box, is of a high standard and just as good as being at home(if not better). Our weather was outstanding and the garden was a brilliant bonus for our four legged friends. Relaxing in the hot tub at night with a glass of bubbly was amazing and we will all remember this holiday for a long time. I will recommend the Manor House to friends and family and hopefully we will be back in the future, thanks.

“We had a lovely week in the Manor House in Anglsea.”

It was well equipped and grey for the dogs. Very clean and the owners were very friendly and helpful. There were several local walks and some beautiful beach within a few minutes of the manor. The owners kindly posted a dog lead we had left behind which was very good of them. I would highly recommend this property and location to anyone wanting a relaxing break.

“Absolutely fabulous accommodation that was perfect for 3 sharing couples.”

Darren August 2020

“This is probably the best self catering accommodation I’ve ever stayed in.”

We are a family of 6. We were able to split everyone up in the house and give my 16 year old a room to himself. This made the holiday for us. The sheer size of the place is amazing. The views from the hot tub watching fighter jets take off kept the kids entertained all afternoon. We will back!

- Darren, August 2020
Andrew July 2020

“Great place to stay.”

Had a problem with the hot water, which can happen as it was a pump failure, but this was dealt with virtually immediately. Large bedrooms and great enclosed, private paddock area at the back which our dogs loved. Owners were a pleasure to deal with.

Built in 1886 by the Sheriff of Anglesey, and rumored to be considered by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge when the Prince was based in RAF Valley, there's no better base for your own escape to Wales.

Make your way up the impressive avenue lined with lime trees, and head beneath the bell tower topping the property to reach the spacious hallway where you can deposit your belongings and venture inside to explore the rest of your surroundings.

The living/dining room is a grand spot to spend time with loved ones, whether you're snuggled up on the sofa in front of the woodburning stove or indulging in a formal dining experience around the contemporary and unique, wooden table with its glass top, you're sure to create wonderful memories in this room.

The kitchen/diner also makes a great spot to enjoy mealtimes together, with the impressive red range cooker allowing you to create your family-favourite meals in no time, with the assistance of the other good range of appliances in this bright and airy room.

Spend a moment or two unwinding in the conservatory, watching your furry friends playing happily on the lawn, before retiring to one of the three bedrooms to rest your head.

Choose from a ground-floor super-king-size, doubling up as a twin on request and boasting its own en-suite shower room, offering flexibility and a wonderful resting spot for a variety of group needs, whereas on the first floor you will find a family room with both a super-king-size and a truckle bed, in an adjoining alcove, with an impressive en-suite bathroom, and a further king-size, available as a twin on request, offering a range of flexible sleeping arrangements for the whole family, boasting beautiful features throughout.

Head outside to discover the warmth of the hot tub on a chilly winter afternoon, soaking in your countryside settings as you unwind, or take a stroll into the local area for rambling routes like no other.
