Guests say
Guests consistently praise Plas Cefn Mawr for its cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped facilities. The property's location is appreciated for its convenience to local attractions and the added paddock is a hit with families and pet owners. The welcoming owners and the property's spaciousness contribute to a delightful stay, although some minor maintenance issues and a lack of welcome gifts are noted.
The property receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being 'spotless' and 'very clean'. This indicates a well-maintained and hygienic environment.
The location is frequently described as convenient and ideal for accessing local attractions and routes. However, some guests noted the proximity to a main road, which may affect privacy but does not detract significantly from the overall experience.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of cosy settings, comfortable beds, and a warm atmosphere. A few guests noted issues with mattresses and shower facilities, but these are exceptions in the overall positive feedback.
Facilities are generally well-received, especially the well-equipped kitchen and outdoor paddock. Some guests suggested improvements in kitchen utensils and TV size, indicating room for enhancement in facilities and maintenance.
While the reviews reflect a positive experience, there is no consistent mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score in this category, and guests should note that such amenities are not guaranteed.
About this property
This gorgeous farmhouse on Anglesey, which dates back to the 16th Century, has been lovingly restored and renovated.
The bright, spacious kitchen and dining room, has the original beamed ceiling and a shaker style kitchen. French doors open from the conservatory dining area on to a decked area outside. The well equipped kitchen has an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, steamer and all the cooking utensils that you could need.
Sofas and chairs surround the wood burning stove in the sitting room. There is a plentiful supply of wood, and a wall mounted flat screen TV with Freeview and DVD player.
There is one double bedroom on the ground floor with a fantastic en-suite wet room with loo and wash hand basin. There are three further bedrooms upstairs (two double rooms and a twin). Much care has gone into the details and decoration of these rooms, which have exposed stone walls and original pitch pine floorboards.
There is a fabulous bathroom with a double-ended bath, loo, wash hand basin and separate shower.
The garden has pretty flowering shrubs, with pleasant views across lush pasture land to the hills of Snowdonia. The decked area is great for al fresco meals, and in fine weather, the garden is a lovely sun trap.
Situated halfway between the mountains and the beaches, Plas Cefn Mawr holiday house is just a short distance from Plas Newydd, which is owned by the National Trust. Just down the road, the pretty little bay at Moel y Don on the Menai Strait is popular with fishermen and makes the perfect place to launch a boat. Here you can also join the Anglesey coastal path and experience some wonderful coastal scenery.
Plas Cefn Mawr has all the comforts of the 21st Century and is a beautifully presented and comfortable holiday house.
Sleepy hamlet on the outskirts of Brynsiencyn. Here you can wonder off and have a walk to the neolithic burial chamber, or pop along down to the Menai Straits to soak up the views. Take a short drive to nearby Menai Bridge and Llanfairpwll for restaurants and shops or head over to Newborough for the beautiful Llanddwyn Island and forest.

The cottage is well appointed. The paddock is agreat safe space for dogs and children to have a run around. The only things to improve would be the double bed in the second bedroom as this squeaked and clanked every time I rolled over in the night. Also a curtain around the shower in the wet room to try and stop everything getting so wet. Overall, we had a fantastic holiday thank you. We would recommend the property to friends and family.

The outside area is perfect for both parking your vehicles and the paddock was a absolute hit with our two border collies. The house is situated perfectly for surrounding places to visit! We will be booking again

Beds are comfortable and showers good. Indoor cleanliness satisfactory, the kitchen floor needs a deep clean. Only basic kitchen equipment, e.g no chopping boards were provided for food preparation. No welcome pack or instructions folder was provided which would have been helpful. Slight damp smell upstairs.The outdoor space, the paddock, garden furniture and parking are all great and very well maintained. We had a lovely holiday, thank you.
