  Property is of a high standard and has a great outlook over the fields and the entertaining lambs.

  Everything you could need for a break. However what is not stated in the information is the heating is controlled by owner via Hive. On our first day my wife was cold so I switched the heating to manual following the instructions in the book. at teatime we received the following message from the owner who turned the heating back to his own settings. quote: I've just checked the heating and its on manual. I have it on a schedule/timer. I hope you have not forgotten about it and it's been on 22.5 degrees all day? My reply at 9pm. The thermostat will only trigger the heating system when it falls below the target temperature.I have pulled back the blinds as I do at home to let the sun in to heat it up. As this lovely house is so well insulated the actual temperature is still 22.5 degrees so the heating here has not been on all day. My wife has terminal cancer and I brought her down to see her granddaughter who is at Bangor University. Because of the chemotherapy and other medications she feels cold a lot of the time which is why I set the thermostat to 22 degrees as it is at home. Despite my reply the owner continued to switch it back to his settings each day. I understand the costs have risen for gas but I am sure the cost of staying in the cottage has risen to compensate. My wife was quite upset by all this, so much so that she wanted to go home. What should have been a joyous occasion for my wife was ruined. Thanks Wynne. It should be stated in the description that heating is strictly controlled by owner. We have been to many cottages and never had interference from an owner before. The message about BBQ use reads: feel free to use this but we expect it to be left as clean as you found it! A cleaning charge/fine will be made against you, if it isn't. Perhaps says everything about the owner! Won't be back!!

  This was the perfect cottage for our holiday to Anglesey.

  We visited with my parents, two older children and a dog. The cottage was very clean, spacious and had everything we needed. The weather during our stay was amazing so the views over to the mountains on the mainland was fabulous! The cottage is located on a working farm and is located next to a sheep field. We loved watched the sheep and lambs and they were very curious of us and our dog. The cottage is only a short drive to Beaumaris but there are also some lovely walks directly from the cottage. There is a Morrisons daily less than 5 minutes walk away so very convenient for picking up bits of shopping.

  The property was beautifully clean.

  We ate in every night and all the necessary utensils were in the kitchen. The lounge was lovely and cosy with a smart TV so could settle down in an evening. The conservatory was lovely for late afternoon tea after a long walk. The property was in an ideal location to tour the island with ease. The shower room is very small but not an issue. Just a couple of suggestions Perhaps to slightly reorganise the kitchen cupboards as there was little space for food. Perhaps some walking guides to explore the island. All in all an excellent trip and we will return .

  We very much enjoyed our week at Dornberg.

  The property is in a fantastic position with views of the Menai Strait. It is comfortable, warm, spotlessly clean with good quality furnishings, towels & bed linen. We appreciated the detailed instructions on how to operate everything and hope to return one day. Future guests should note that the following were not provided; tea towels, soap in the bathrooms, washing up brush or sponge and we were not able to find an iron or an ironing board. The only cleaning materials were squirty toilet cleaner and an empty bottle of bleach.

  We had a great family stay in Ty Cuddfan.

  The accommodation was very comfortable and well equipped. Communication from Ffion was prompt, friendly and helpful. The house is spacious, warm and quiet with beautiful views and within an easy walk of the local shop. A little further on is a lovely easygoing wooded path to an old castle and beach. We enjoyed visiting the shops and castle in Beaumaris and recommend the dog friendly Liverpool Arms for food. The house is a great base for exploring mainland Wales as well as the beautiful coast of Anglesey. Highly recommend.
