We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for 4 days, children felt it like home and wouldn't want to leave on the last day. Appreciate the kind gesture to leave some snacks, drinks for adults and children at the property when we arrived. My only recommendation is it would be nice to have a dishwasher too but ofcourse it didn't stop us from having a niRead morece time though Hide

Great modern comfortable house with a very well stocked kitchen in terms pots, pans, utensils, crockery, cutlery etc. We felt very welcomed with the wine, milk and sweet treats. We hope to return again soon! We can recommend the Woodvale for food when you don't want to cook - their breakfast was delicious.

The location in Gurnard is nice, but the master bedroom faces the road and was very noisy, even at night with cars using the road as a race track. Cleaning was poor the kitchen, equipment, and outdoor furniture were dirty, and we even found old socks by the bed. The DVD player didnt work, the bed was uncomfortable, and the linen was tired. OverallRead more, it felt more like staying in someones house than a quality holiday cottage.

Lovely little place. Definitely would benefit from having a dishwasher in place, no one wants to wash up when they're on holiday! All in all an enjoyable stay and the welcome hamper is a lovely touch.
