  Tyny berth 17 to 24th August Nice cottage, been mistreated by others I think over the seasons, spoilt our break considerably.

  Really nice views and a lovely cottage. But very disappointed with our stay. Not acutely listed in Sykes. Open fire is a gas fire, Near main road is actually directly on a 40mph road, Parking is tight when you dodge the traffic, Grass area is ok but we did not feel safe letting our dog out unattended just incase, due to the proximity to the main road. Cosy rooms and clean fresh bed linen, reasonably clean, but don’t look on top of the wardrobes, full of dust. Careful if you have dust allergies as I do. Kitchen is well fitted but has been misused by a few families as mentioned, only 2 pint glasses in the whole house, and 1 wine glass etc, oven hob button comes off so be careful and put it back on. Warning, the gas fire in the living room does not light, don’t bother. Tried for two days, listed as open fire, but gas fire fitted, several cold nights later found out central heating is controlled via a smart hub. Worked great when we realised this was the case as we spend several cold nights with the heating not on. The white box was on the top mantel under the tv. In the warmest room. thus no heating switched on. When we moved it to the bottom of the mantelpiece heating actually worked. Bins were full when we arrived on Saturday 17th. Limited room for any rubbish. Manual says they get collected on Friday, actually it was collected on Tuesday. So make sure you leave the bins out. Just be careful of the wind blowing the bins into the road though, one of ours went walkies into the main road with the wind, we are aware this can’t be controlled but knowing when to actually put them out would be great. Two different days listed in the house guide, which did not match when they were actually collected. Hot tub lid, was broken before we arrived by a previous families children dancing on the lid, This made the hot tub really hard to use as it was in two pieces, This although an inconvenience, did not stop use of the actual hot tub, when it was working for the 2 days it worked. Note when it was actually working 1.5 of the 3 powered jet system , the buttons were working just no pressure and or jets. seams a constant theme looking at other reviews of the hot tub breaking 2ish days into the stay. As mentioned our stay, the hot tub broke on the 2nd day anyway, by tripping the electrics. Not to be used for the remaining week, we only got to use it 2 out of 7 possible days. As the hot tub has not been able to be used all week, this has Considerably put a dampener on the cottage and hot tub experience, one of the main reason for booking this actual cottage. Very disappointing. And has considerably spoilt our family holiday. House manual was, is written very hostile and not really a warm welcome. For instance the shower was blocked when we arrived, and I ended up on all fours on our first night fixing and making it usable. Ended up removing a piece of plastic from the sump by poking fingers into the hole. Not hair like the instruction book seams to suggest. Plus Water pools in the corner by the door and you have to stop showering to ensure the water flow does not flow over the edge. Sykes description needs to state its on a main road and difficult to pull in and out of a blind corner on an 40mph road makes it interesting. The actual drive, although it does fit two parked cars, you cannot turn or manoeuvre. you need two very small cars, with two very skilled drivers for this. Owner although responsive on texts had to be chased for updates and to this date no response as to when hot tub will be fixed. Writing this on our last night, so it’s the next family’s issue now. Good luck We won’t be back to this cottage, Anglesey still has hidden treasures to be seen, so we might book an alternative cottage next time.

  We booked this for our wedding anniversary as we weren’t able to go abroad to the villa we had booked.

  I love Anglesey and was excited for our stay, we wanted a decent size place in a decent location and a hot tub was a major factor especially due to the weather forecast. Literally as we were setting off about 4pm we were called by the owner to be told that the hot tub had broken that morning and was trying to get it fixed but was likely to be the last day of our stay at the earliest - obviously this was extremely disappointing and my wife was very upset but we tried to stay positive, hope for the best and understood things like this can happen. When we arrived the outside was untidy with food on the floor near the bins and the garden was quite unkept. The hot tub was situated in an open area at the side of the house in open sight of the front of the neighbours house and main road with no overhead structure like shown in the pictures. The location was great, not far from the beach, sea and nice local towns. The hot tub wasn’t fixed at any point during our stay and had to chase up the owner to see about developments. The owner did offer to pay for lunch at a local place but we said that we had already booked Dylan’s for our anniversary and didn’t hear anything back. We asked about a refund and he said he didn’t see a problem with that but asked us to speak to Sykes, we called Sykes and they understood why this was such a let down and said they would come back to us. We hadn’t heard anything back so we called again later the next day (day of departure), Sykes said they had tried to call the owner but hadn’t heard back and said they would try and get hold of the owner again to see what he was happy to offer us (which was surprising considering the owner seemed to make out that it was Sykes’s decision), anyway, they called back quite quickly and said the owner would give us £45 which was massively disappointing and not a refund or even compensation that reflects what we had lost in any way and we expressed this to Sykes and they said they would speak to the owner again and come back to us, we have still not heard anything and this is over a week so we just feel let down. We are both very busy people and this was a much needed getaway and celebration and we just don’t have the time for chasing things like this up. I don’t like being negative and I don’t like writing negative things, I’m a landlord myself so may be a little more understanding that others would be when things go wrong but I also go to the ends of the earth to make sure things are right with my houses for my tenants even if I’m at a loss.

  After we had booked this short break I read a few reviews from previous guests and I’m not going to lie I was worried and annoyed at myself that I hadn’t read them before booking, but I’m glad I didn’t as I may not of booked.

  I was expecting loads of issues and whilst I agree the property needs a little TLC to address areas of damp and some parts need painting touch ups, I feel these are minor issues and some of the reviews are unfair. I did notice the owners response to one review which states they are decorating very soon so I would definitely consider returning again and it would be nice to see the improvements. We had a lovely four night stay here. Weather was in our favor, so we got to use the hot tub, which was in good working order and clean. Previous reviews stated the hot tub was overlooked, but personally, (and I am self conscious) didn’t feel like any passing traffic would be able to see us. We put a bit of music on low and we found it relaxing and hardly noticed any traffic noise at all. The views from the hot tub are amazing too. The property itself was really cosy and we loved all the special touches, such as board games, dvds, books, smart tvs and the binoculars to look out over the sea. The kitchen was great, loads of utensils, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, oven, kettle, toaster, all clean and in perfect working order. There were lots of essentials to get us going such as dishwasher tablets, fairy liquid, toilet rolls, etc, which we thought was really good till we got the chance to get settled in and do a bit of shopping, then we replaced what we had used. Bedrooms and bathroom were clean and plenty towels were supplied and these smelled so lovely and were really soft. So the only things we would like to see to improve the stay are: blackout blinds in all bedrooms, a few more coat hangers, decorating to areas that need it, bit of attention to the outside area such as weeding and maybe some plants. Other than that it was perfect and Thankyou for letting us stay. Things we loved: The property was homely and welcoming. We loved the views and the proximity of the property to nearby beaches, shops and some really good restaurants. We loved Dylan’s and The Tavern on the Bay. The chippy behind Tesco express was also great but got really busy! Thanks for renting out this lovely property and we hope to visit again soon.

  He only thing going for this property are the lovely views, which can currently only be enjoyed from upstairs, as the overgrown shrubs and bushes to the front of the property and garden block the views.

  It looks lovely on the photos but definitely in need of a good clean, general upkeep and essential maintenance! En-suite toilet didn’t flush properly due to bodged incorrect flush system. The bath tap/hand held attachment leaked off the roll top bath onto the mucky floor underneath, we tried to stop this with towels but it ended up leaking through the ceiling and downstairs electrics! Which resulted in us unable to use it at all due to safety. Paint peeling off the ceiling over the shower, which lands on you when showering. Paint peeling off walls and damp patches all over the property. Stains on cushions and throws. Dust and cobwebs on light fittings and under furniture. Uneven floors upstairs. Cheap flat pillows on the beds, although the beds themselves were comfortable. Cupboard and drawer units difficult to open/close. Outside the back door was very slippery due to excessive bird poo due to nests above. Front door couldn’t be used due to excessive weeds and hole in the floor in the front porch (currently covered by carpet!) Driveway and garden excessively overgrown with weeds and nettles. Definitely avoid if taking young children. Old hot tub cover dumped on the driveway. Hot tub is set up on a raised patio with a large step up to it, not easy for elderly guests or people with mobility issues. The hot tub would only work properly half at a time. Although it is a six seater hot tub the information book says only three people are allowed in at once?!? Two mismatched uncomfortable benches are the only outdoor seating. Tin opener didn’t work. Kitchen bin lid broken. Instructions say you are not allowed to touch the heating it is preset to the owners requirements. (thank goodness we visited in summer). Also the property is on a very busy road, which didn’t bother us but something to be aware of if traveling with young children or dogs. I do believe this house could be lovely again if the issues are rectified, in the current state it seams it is just a money making opportunity and not a home from home that people expect when paying this kind of money.

  We had two Anglesey holiday homes on our shortlist but Tyn Y Berth won as she has an “open fire” and a “hot tub” according to Sykes website.

  Unfortunately the open fire is actually gas and the hot tub after tripping off on the Sunday became a cold tub as it then failed to warm up the rest of week making it unusable. The kitchen is well equipped with utensils, crockery, pans etc the living room furniture is comfy and the beds were clean and comfortable. It is warm, sometimes too warm as the heating is on to avoid condensation on the thick walls but I think it is more likely because the house has a serious problem with damp on the side wall. It is in a fantastic location for visiting lots of great places. Unfortunately, there are a lot of negatives of which to list a few are the very wet wall in the main bedroom which also has a wardrobe with one door, the other is propped up against the side of the wardrobe, the cupboard under the sink is dirty and the paintwork on the staircase to be frank is a disgrace. I note having read some reviews when we got home that this was mentioned previously and the owners responded that it was because the wrong paint had been used and they would be rectifying this problem week commencing 12th August. As our visit was w/c 30th September I can only assume they meant 2024! Overall the general upkeep of the house and garden is really not good. The bushes at the front of the house are overgrown spoiling what would be a lovely view and the paving is full of weeds. The house does not warrant the amount of money it costs to stay there and I definitely wouldn’t recommend it to family or friends in its present condition.
