On arrival the kitchen was not clean - crumbs etc all over the work top, kitchen/dining room floor not clean. I contacted the owner directly & to be fair he arranged for the cleaning company to visit. Lady was lovely and cleaned the kitchen tops, floor etc. We discovered 2 leaks in the kitchen, & again the owner was made aware at the time. He informed us that a plumber would attend that afternoon. We left the key in the key safe as requested but no evidence of plumber visit & no further feedback from the owner. I cleaned up leaks more than a few times each day as water would leak onto the worktop under the kettle, next to the hob and onto the floor. Over time we noticed the lack of cleanliness in other areas of the house. The cleaning company stated that they informed the owner that a deep clean was needed, but had not been given the go ahead to do this. Consequently dust was apparent in all rooms, especially corners (additionally cobwebs).I can imagine that in its day the house has been beautiful & modern for its time. However the description of the property is now inaccurate as it is neither bright or modern. It is in desperate need of some TLC & maintenance to resolve leaks, & address areas of water ingress.Most of the duvets and pillows were stained from use over time and only some of the pillows had protectors to keep them clean. Mattress protectors were in use but these needed laundering. Therefore I feel the cost was excessive for this property. Sea view perfect

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the property did not meet the standard you reasonably expected on arrival. We contacted our cleaning company immediately after you raised the initial concerns and arranged for them to return. We are pleased that the lady who attended was helpful and cleaned the kitchen surfaces and floors. Regarding the leaks, the plumber did attend the property and believed that he had resolved the problem. As we did not hear anything further from you during your stay, we unfortunately assumed that the issue had been fixed. We are sorry to learn that the leaking continued and that you had to clean up the water several times each day. We also sincerely apologise for the condition of the pillows and mattress protectors. This was not acceptable. We have since replaced the cleaning company and expect the standard of cleaning and linen checks to be significantly higher going forward. Thank you for your positive comment about the sea view. We appreciate your honest feedback and are using it to make the necessary improvements. If you would consider staying with us again, we would be pleased to offer you a discount on a future booking.

This is our fifth property to be visited in Rhosneigr and it was certainly the best. The house had loads of character, from the front window had a clear view of the sea and had many lovely pictures. This is the only review I have done for Rhosneigr and it deserves it.Can!t wait to return…..

Fabulous property with beautiful views

I can’t recommend this beach front house enough. Beautiful views from a bright, spacious and comfortable home which catered for everything you could possibly need. Close to the main high street of Rhosneigr and moments from the sandy beach. Just fabulous and we absolutely will be returning.

Lovely accomodation

We had a great time staying here. The property is in a really convenient position, a very short walk to the beach. Brilliant for my elderly mother. Everything was clean and tidy and we will hopefully be returning in the future.

Fell in love with everything about the house and immediately felt relaxed

This is our second stay here and we will be coming again. It’s perfect for our family (and dog!) My mum, Dad and sister have the downstairs bedrooms and bathroom and my husband, son, daughter and I have the upstairs. The house is in the perfect location for the beautiful beaches and the little town is only a short stroll away. We can’t wait to come again 😊

Brilliant location

Great position , very well stocked house everything that you could need , comfortable beds , a strong powerful shower , a very helpful , considerate and professional owner . Only reason we've not given 5stars , is that the property would benefit from a general updating throughout , but that's reflected in the price .

Wish We Were There!

We have stayed at this lovely bright and spacious property three times in the last three years and each time we have come home feeling relaxed and refreshed. My only criticism is that the photos on the website look quite dull and don't do justice to how light and bright the property is. The house is in a superb location with sea views and we've been lucky to see some amazing sunsets. The long stretch of beach is only a few yards away and such a fabulous place to exercise our dogs who love it there. At certain times of the day you can watch helicopters and other aircraft from RAF Valley flying overhead which all adds to the atmosphere. A few hundred yards in the opposite direction and you are in the friendly village of Rhosneigr with its lovely cafes, restaurants and shops. I think there is something for everyone there and the village has a great feel to it. Our last stay at Sibrwd-y-don was in May this year and on arrival the house was spotlessly clean and welcoming, which is how we've found it to be on each occasion. The beds are really comfortable ensuring a good night's sleep, plus it's also very peaceful and quiet. It's always a pleasure to deal with Colin Smith, the owner, whose quick response to e-mails/queries makes the booking process hassle-free. Well worth a visit are South Stack Lighthouse and RSPB Reserve at Holyhead. Stunning views, free parking and excellent cafe. Newborough Forest, where red squirrels were reintroduced, is a magical place and great for collecting pine cones. We also enjoyed our trip to Aberrfraw, and Beaumaris is also a delightful place. I can highly recommend eating at the Oyster Catcher (dogs welcome outside), and also the White Eagle at Rhoscolyn where dogs are welcome inside. There are some lovely eateries in the village too. Sainsbury's and Asda will deliver your weekly shop to the house and we've used this facility on two occasions. There could be others that I'm not aware of. Now that I've typed this review it's made me realise how much I want to go back!! :)

6/10 Okay

Plenty of space and kitchen was well equipped. Beds were clean and very comfortable.

This is a lovely house with lots of space and is very comfortable but it is in need of some care and attention. The downstairs shower room had a lot of black mould around the shower and the toilet leaked all week. We did not like using it. A plumber was sent but we were expected to be there to let him in. He was unable to fix the problem during our stay. It was also disappointing that the wifi did not work all week A new router was sent but we were out when it was delivered although no one told us it was arriving. I assume we would have been expected to install it ourselves. Guests should not be expected to stay in for these things. There was wallpaper peeling off ceilings and curtains hanging off rails. Contact with the owner was difficult without wifi and Rhosneigner clearly has a poor mobile signal. Rhosneigr is a beautiful village and we very much enjoyed our stay, particularly walking on the beach. The 'Oyster Catcher' just outside the village is lovely for coffee, a drink or a meal. Since we had two small children with us we did not eat out anywhere else. There are two small, local shops which stock essentials but you need to go to a supermarket in Holyhead, for example, for more variety.

Thank you for your review and raising the points therein. Unfotunately we could not get the wifi rectified in time for the start of your stay due to delays with Openreach. We did however inform you in advance that the wifi was not working and have promised to pass on any refund from the broadband provider to yourself. We take on board the point about the mould and have asked the cleaners to be diligent with regard to this in the future. We're sorry about the small leak in the toilet but we managed to get a plumber there within 24 hours of the problem being reported, no mean feat given that it was Xmas week! Unfortunately the work required was not something that he could do there and then but has subsequently been carried out.
