Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers unanimously commend the property for its exceptional cleanliness, describing it as spotless and fresh. The attention to detail in maintaining a clean environment is evident throughout the reviews.
The cottage's location is highly valued for its quiet, rural setting with stunning views. Its proximity to beaches and local attractions like Parys mountain is frequently mentioned, contributing to its high score.
Guests consistently report a high level of comfort, noting the spaciousness of the property, the quality of the beds, and the suitability for a range of ages. The presence of an office space and the large outdoor area for activities also contribute to the comfort experienced by visitors.
The property is praised for its well-equipped kitchen, games room, and ample space for parking and storage. However, a couple of minor maintenance issues, such as a shower needing a boost and a leaky hose, prevent a perfect score.
The owner's thoughtfulness is highlighted by guests who received welcome gifts and personal check-ins via text. While these gestures are greatly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are a kind bonus and not guaranteed with every stay.
About this property
Dulas 1.9 miles. Resting in Pencraigwen near Dulas, Anglesey, is Cynefin, a wonderful bungalow, welcoming seven guests and two well-behaved dogs. Enjoying countryside views and a contemporary interior, whilst a short journey away from the delights of North Wales, the property offers the ideal base for a family break, near both the coast and country. Park up on the private driveway, enveloped by the wrap-around garden and vistas over the neighbouring fields, before stepping into the property, firstly arriving at the homely sitting room; here you can relax after a day full of adventure in front of the Smart TV and electric fire. Continue on to the kitchen/diner, well-equipped with all expected appliances and a neighbouring utility, easing your self-catered stay. Box off any work in the study before partaking in a competitive evening of table football, located in the garage. Rest your eyes in one of three well-appointed bedrooms, including a king-size, a double, and a family room. Guests will have access to a sleek bathroom, offering both a bath and shower, and a cloakroom for convenience. Awaken to the sunrise across Pencraigwen’s countryside, before kickstarting your itinerary, starting with a hike towards Mynydd Parys, a visit to Llyn Alaw, or a stroll along Porth y Môr shoreline. Travelling on to Beaumaris, a favoured area upon the isle, opt for a tour of Beaumaris Castle, discover the heritage-rich attraction of Beaumaris Gaol and Court, or enjoy a day at the seaside at Beaumaris Pier, where you can devour a bag of fish and chips whilst watching the tide come in. Within the county you'll also have the chance to visit Pili Palas Nature World, and Plas Newydd House and Gardens, both family-friendly attractions, before crossing to the mainland before crossing to the mainland, ready to hike across Snowdonia National Park.

Agree with everyone who has said it's a Home from Home and we can't wait to return again!! The owners kind gestures and attention are next to none. My animal crazy daughter had the best time surrounded by farms, the cows coming right up to the garden were a huge hit. Don't hesitate in booking, you won't regret it.

The property is like a home away from home in a picturesque location. It is very comfortable and spacious and has everything you could need and you can tell that the small details have been considered. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms and bathrooms are a great size. We loved the farm location and our little boy developed a great interest in tractors during our holiday from watching through the windows. The garden is also great and perfect for our children and dogs to play. A generous welcome hamper was also left for us which was a nice touch. Olwen is very helpful and even delivered a non slip bath mat for our children to use during our stay. Another great trip and I hope we will be back for a 3rd time in the future. Thanks again Olwen.

Everything was clean and in its place, the views were fantastic, waking up some mornings to the sound of cows was so nice and different from home. I could go on and on but in essence a fantastic place to stay and would highly recommend and yes, we will be returning.
