Very clean property. Stunning location. Stayed 4 nights. Very impersonal. No communication from owners/operators. No breakfast provided as advertised in Expedia web site. Just orange juice (out of date) and milk in fridge. Had a little difficulty locating property. Rang mobile number in conformation email for assistance but got no reply. Had to locate key in key safe to let myself in. Garden Room very small. Would not stay there again

One night stay

Struggled to find the place, satnav sent us to the road after where it was, this was very small single track lane, providing the road name would have helped us find it. Other than that, nice location and comfortable room.

Great location, would probably stay again but the room is just a bit too small for comfort. Don't bring too much luggage. Luckily it was nice weather and we could sit outside.

Comfortable and beautiful location

Cosy and quite spacious. The bedrooms are very comfortable and some rooms have great views. There’s a private garden to the back so there’s plenty of space to relax.

Highly recommend, clean, modern, fantastic

We had a double room and private bathroom. It was gorgeous. Spacious bedroom and modern bathroom. Bottles of water, boxes of mini cereal, crossaints, cereal bars,juice, milk etc. all in the room itself. Great area,private parking and about 10 minute drive to port for our ferry the next morning, so that was ideal. Gardens outside are all lit up with little fairy lights and 2 wooden pods that you can stay in also, they looked cool. One recommendation i would make though, would be that on our booking there was an 8pm deadline for check in. We were rushing to meet this as we were afraid we would have nowhere to stay that night if we werent there by 8pm. But the room key was left in an envelope inside the door, so it really didnt matter what time we arrived. Which would have been good to know prior. All in all, 5 stars 😊

I booked this property for Business as had to catch an early ferry to travel to Dublin. Lovely place; clean,warm,cosy; everything you need. Quick & easy 24hr checkin and due to a 7hr drive down I ordered a take-away who even delivered to the property. Have recommended to family for a summer break.

Seht schöne Lage, nicht weit vom South Stack Lighthouse und vom Vogelschutzgebiet. Holyhead war schnell mit dem Auto erreichbar. Das B&B-Zimmer war etwas klein, aber gut ausgestattet. Frühstück war allerdings auf dem Zimmer.

View towards mountains and a short walk to Lighthouse. Room not the one in photo, this room is part of The Garden Cottage not the Garden Room. Which is a single room with on suite and luckily a outdoor patio but our our Garden was 25 M away as the Garden next to us belong to the Cottage. The room reminded us of a place in Cornwall called Mousehole, cheers G&K

Fine for one night.

We stayed in one of the pods and it was fine for one night. The details we received from the property after we booked through Hotels.com seemed somewhat different. i.e. Hotels.com said 24 hours notice for cancellation and the details from the property said one week. Also Hotels.com said full breakfast and what you actually get is a small "continental" breakfast left in the room. There are no staff on site and it is "self" checkin. The WiFi did not reach the pods, so a walk across to the main house was needed to pick up anything.
