If you want off the beaten track , peace and quiet with amazing views this is apartment is perfect! A perfect little bolthole with old world charm and modern amenities, comfy beds and dark skies …No shops within approximately 3 miles so arrive with the basics as no welcome pack , there is a Waitrose in Meni and a lovely pub with good food in Llandonna village , we had the Sunday roast and plenty of good food around the island .We didn’t take our dog as a 6 hour drive too far but he would have loved the fantastic walks and beaches within a short drive . It’s a one track road to get to the Ivy so don’t arrive in the dark ! It take a bit of getting used to .. we will definitely return it was perfect. Friendly people also live in the building and the gardens are well kept and views .. amazing

We loved this ground floor apartment, very comfortable, with a sea view and red squirrels chasing each other up the tree outside. It is quite rural and remote, the nearest shops are in Beaumaris, a couple of miles away but we loved peace and quiet. The local pub in Llanddona was brilliant... lovely friendly staff, a fantastic Sunday lunch and other great food. It was a fantastic base for exploring the wonderful island of Anglesey.
