What our customers say about their holidays

  The location of the property was fantastic being approximately 100 metres from the beach.

  The size of the house was also good for the seven of us. Parking was also good as it was off road. However, the house is in need of a deep clean and modernisation. When entering the property their was a distinct smell of dog which was unpleasant. This was in the lounge carpet and in the sofas which also housed a lot of dog hairs The kitchen hadn't been cleaned properly: the space between the cooker and the dishwasher was disgusting filled with other people's debris and dust, there were crumbs in the bread bin and behind trays etc and the microwave hadn't been cleaned properly as there was still remnants of rice in it. When opening some the base units in the kitchen they smelt of urine...not sure why! The outside windows were dirty and the front and back patio areas were weedy and around the front door. All the internal doors were marked with dirty marks as was a lot of the paintwork. The curtains were hanging off in the front bedroom and only 1 out of 4 lamps worked in the bedrooms. There was also no headboard in the main bedroom. The vanity shelf in the main bedroom was also loose. The bathroom was very dirty with a rusty toilet seat, black grouting and filthy shower head. The shower screen was held together with some dirty silicone. In total the bathroom was not really fit for purpose, also carpeted which is not ideal. On the whole I was disappointed with the property given we had paid £1300 for 1 week!

  The house is in a lovely position with views over the golf course and hills and the sea from the front upstairs windows.

  it is a very spacious home however there were some difficulties. the quilts on the beds are far too thick, impossible to use in the summer months, although the beds are comfortable. the fridge in the kitchen is small, but also not fastened in correctly, so moves about and sometimes it is difficult to shut the door, resulting in it being left ajar and wet shelves, plus the food not being as cold as it should be. the back up table top fridge in the garage was unusable, due to it being mouldy inside. when we arrived the door knob came off the bathroom upstairs, with a child inside. we had to fix it. the table in the lounge, which should unfold, has a broken leg, so was unusable and we would have liked to use it for a jigsaw. there was no large pan, and for a group of 7, it made cooking difficult. it was nice to have the slow cooker however. there was also a lack of basic utensils, whisk, mixing bowl and knives weren't sharp. pegs were provided but no washing line, so we had to dry clothes indoors. the hoover was broken when we arrived, but we let the owners know and they replaced it within 2 days. we did enjoy the holiday, but it would be great to fix the issues we mentioned.

  Great location & well equipped house for an extended family or group of friends.

  We had a great time celebrating NYE & all being together. A couple of things would have made things even better: •a few sachets of coffee/tea bags & a pint of milk to have a hot drink on arrival - it is dark at this time of year at 4 pm & the weather was horrendous so this would have been welcoming & appreciated- I have never stayed in a rental property ever where tea/coffee has not been provided & many properties even provide a welcome pack or cake etc •readily visible instructions for heating/gas fire/TV in lounge & practical info on nearest shop etc would have been appreciated •bins were overflowing from previous guests & we ended up tidying up their mess outside which had been blown around by the wind & bin had not been put back on its holder •bathroom door handle inside upstairs needs replacing as it comes off in your hand every time & rug in lounge curling up at each end and dangerous trip hazard for elderly guests Other than these few observations, we had a great time! Thank you!

  We had a brilliant time at this amazing cottage.

  We were looking for a peaceful and relaxing break away from the stresses of every day life and this cottage provided that in abundance. The house itself is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We especially liked the rainfall shower downstairs and the seaside theme of decoration. The views from the garden and upstairs windows were fantastic. We had coffee (courtesy of the Dolce Gusto machine and pods supplied) and Welsh cakes on the patio every day and just enjoyed the quietness and the views, whilst watching the passing boats. We had planned to do quite a bit of sight seeing whilst on Anglesey, but in the end hardly went anywhere because we enjoyed the cottage and Penmon Point so much. The owners left a really lovely welcome pack which included the aforementioned Welsh cakes and lots of other treats which we really enjoyed. We will definitely be booking to stay here again next year.

  We have stayed in a lot of self catering properties and I must say that 2 Old Coastguard House is the best we've ever experienced.

  We stayed the first week of February and arrived in the dark, it was lovely that the house had welcoming lights on and was lovely and warm. There was a much appreciated welcome pack with lots of lovely local produce, plus the essentials of milk and bread. The house was extremely clean and we felt at home instantly. The house is beautiful and a lot of thought had gone into the decor and the dressing of the rooms. ( It has given me some ideas for when we re-decorate.) The facilities were great and there was everything we needed for our stay. The location - well wow !!!!! absolutely amazing. Fabulous views, lovely and quiet and lots of birds and wildlife. We generally never return to a property, because life's to short right ! We are, however, going to make an exception with 2 Old Coastguard House and will be returning next year. I highly recommend this property.
