Lovely stay great place struggled a bit with internet but to be honest dont ... Lovely stay great place struggled a bit with internet but to be honest dont need it as its a lovely place loads to see do n visit on a beautiful island
Lovely pod , well equipped. Towels smell great. Pod really clean . Tv and WiFi kept cutting off . Dust pan and brush would of been helpful when bringing in sand etc on shoes Some sand in hot tub . None of these spoilt our stay Would definitely book again
Loved staying here would come back
The pod is small, but very well laid out. Very comfortable and with great views from the deck down to the sea. Hot tub is a lovely bonus and we used it every day. The secure area around the pod was very appreciated by the dogs. Very quiet and peaceful location, but easy to get to the many towns, villages, and bays of Anglesey.
A lovely, cosy base to explore Anglesey from with everything we needed for a fantastic few days. Completely dog and child friendly and the hot tub was great to rest our weary muscles after all the walking we did! Only improvement I would suggest is maybe clearer directions to find the pod as it was tricky knowing where to turn.
A very comfortable posh pod in a great location for exploring Anglesey. The owners were very helpful with any queries we had. Definitely good value for the money.
We lived the place and would book again. The hot tub was the real bonus, even in strong wind and it being very cold, the hot tub was a welcome place to chill and relax.
