Great base to explore from, well equipped and well kept. Very comfy sitting room and bedroom. Hot tub was a big luxury

Barbara

Like being in a five star hotel, spacious airy and well appointed, outside space ideal for dogs as well fenced. Kitchen appliances, utensils and crockery were excellent, would recommend this property, but noticed that at the time of my stay only may half term was free for the rest of the summer, says it all!!

The property was lovely, spacious had everything you could need. It was spotless. The location was awesome, minuets walk to a beautiful sandy bay. The jacuzzi was a lovely relaxation after great days out and about. Would definitely recommend and will go back.

Had a really lovely stay. The house had everything we could possibly need. We had a small problem with the hot tub and phoned DJ. He came straight away and it was sorted within 10 minutes. Excellent service. Would definitely recommend and we will definitely stay again.

Sophie

Had a lovely stay in the cottage, it was a home from home! The pictures don't show the size of the property it was a lot bigger than we were expecting! The kitchen was the best kitted out kitchen we've ever stayed in had absolutely everything you could possibly need! The beds were super comfy! As were the sofas! The hottub was an added bonus! Both outside yards were fully enclosed. The bay itself was a short walk from the cottage and the village has some great amenities! Chip shopcafes and a small store. 5 mins from Amlwch which had more amenities. If we return to Anglesey we sure will return to this cottage!

Andrew

Lovely accommodation in a perfect location for exploring Cemaes Bay only 10 mins walk to beach Hot Tub was good after days out exploring Smart TV nice too Plenty of walks with the dogs nearby beach and river Beds really comfy and power shower excellent Weather OK for Feb cold but dry Local pub and places to eat all in walking distance

Gaynor

A lovely place to stay, decoration was more like a home than a holiday cottage. Kitchen very well equipped. Two yards at the back which were completely dog proof so easy to let my two old dogs out for 5 minutes in the early hours. Hot tub well maintained and a definite bonus on a November night. Easy walk from the cottage into the village and beach, also paths through woodland in and around the village which were ideal for our dogs. Id certainly hope to visit again and have also recommended this cottage to several friends.

We all loved this property and area , from the minute we drove into Caemes bay we fell in love with the stunning landscape . The property itself was lovely and very tastefully and quirkily decorated ,, we noticed something new nearly every day . The beds were some of the comfiest we've ever stayed in and the hot tub fantastic.. if I have any criticism it'd be more pans please and maybe heat the property before guests arrive took over a day for the heating to get up to speed ..But overall one of the best places weve stayed and will hopefully come back next year

Sharon

Absolutely fantastic week here, the home, was warm, cosy, had all amenities and we felt at home straight away. Everything at hand shop, cafe, gift shop, chemist, restaurant, friendly pub with brilliant food, the beach which the dogs loved and national trust walks. Would recommend this holiday home to anyone, just one thing the Ariel on the tv was very temperamental but it was a smart tv so not a big issue. Definitely coming back without a doubt

We have been taking SYKES pet friendly holidays for nearly seven years,THE OLD SMITHY in CEMAES BAY was the best location we have stayed in.

We really loved our stay. The house was perfect. Had everything we needed and more. The location was just right, very quiet and scenic. The hot tub was a win. We would definitely like to visit again one day. Our hosts were lovely and so accommodating. We felt as though we had left having made new friends.

This is our 2nd time at this cottage and we enjoyed it as much as the first time a few years ago. Very homely, comfortable, relaxing and spotless. The hot tub is amazing especially after a long day out it was lovely to relax in. The showers in the property are nice and powerful, beds are very comfortable .

Elaine

Brilliant holiday in a lovely place, will definitely return soon

Rachel

We had a wonderful few days at The Old Smithy. The house was beautiful, clean, modern and decorated well. The hot tub was clean and the garden enclosed making it safe for our dogs to wander around. We enjoyed a couple of meals at The Gadlys, just outside Cemaes. DJ and Lee the property owners were really welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed during our stay. We recommend as highly as we possibly could and hope to return in the future. Thanks, Rachel, Rick and family.

My family and I enjoyed a week at the property. We chose it because of its location and parking as we had two cars. We got to like the hot tub especially on a cold day in February! David & Lee, the owners, were friendly, helpful and on hand immediately when I contacted them about a small issue. The property is very well equipped.

Beautiful house, so comfortable and the hot tub is amazing. House is very close to the beach and has a lovely stream running through a woodland walk. Would definitely go again

Annette

We loved the spacious property the kitchen was the best for equipment that we have stayed in. Both bedrooms are a good size with large comfy beds. The hot tub was nice and private. It gets ten out of ten for me.

Very much a home from home, great attention to detail. Friendly and extremely helpful owner. A very comfortable and enjoyable stay!

David the owner is superb, friendly, easy to contact and is everything you would want in a host. We had the most amazing week at Smithy Cottage, not wanting to return home. The cottage is immaculate with the most fantastic decoration. A very spacious place, more than enough room for us as a couple with 4 dogs. A really well stocked kitchen, huge American fridge freezer, cooking facilities are exceptional. The hot tub is absolutely perfect. Close walking distance to all amenities. A very friendly village with beautiful walks by the stream and a simply beautiful beach. Our dogs had the time of their lives. We are looking at dates for 2024 to return and have recommended to friends and family. Thank you to David and Sykes cottages

We stayed here for week in January we had the best time ever. The host was just on end the phone when ever we needed anything. The house was fully stocked with washing up liquid, toilet roll ect which was a nice surprise. Including little coffee pods. The hot tube was an incredible addition to the cottage. The rooms are huge. Even better we got to bring all 4 dogs with us. The Village is lovely. Beach 10min walk and costal walks not far either. Around 40min drive to snowdonia but totally worth it. Also just 2min round corner is little milkshake farm shop famous instagrams llefrithnantdiary. Which has 6 different flavours a day.

We had a wonderful week at 1, The Old Smithy with our daughter, son in law and their 6 month old baby. We found the house clean, well equipped with everything we needed, warm and comfortable. We loved the quirky decor especially everything shiny! The hot tub was fantastic a good temperature and just what was needed after a day of walking. The host was friendly and responded quickly to messages. The location was ideal for travelling to visit different parts of Anglesey and it was only a few minutes walk to the local harbour and beaches. The local shop was well stocked and open until 10pm, which was very convenient. The local pub, The Stag, a few minutes walk away was very welcoming as was the Harbour Hotel.

Sharon

This is the most amazing place to stay. Fantastically furnished and wanted for nothing. A little convenience store in the bay or a 20 min drive to a Tesco or Morrisons. Large American fridge means you can do a full shop that will fit in there. Ice dispenser was a big hit for the old gin's. Never far away from walks or birdwatching, Cemlyn bay is a definite for this with golden plover, snipe, lapwing to name a few and if you're lucky otters can be spotted, a fantastic hot tub ready waiting for you after a day exploring. One small issue we had the friendly owners were quick on hand to rectify it that very same night. Superb. Will most likely rebook next year I was that impressed.

Calvin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 1 The Old Smithy. The location was ideal, just on the edge of the village centre and a short stroll from the beach. The hot tub was excellent, really well maintained and a perfect way to relax after a run. The house is a great size with two double bedrooms, a large kitchen and plenty of room. Any queries were also quickly answered by the very friendly landlords. Overall, a brilliant New Year's trip to a beautiful location.

Norman

Fabulous place, Booked it for Christmas, spotlessly clean on arrival owner even went to the trouble of putting up an Xmas tree and decorations for us. All that plus Champagne in the hot tub! I cannot praise it enough. We had a wonderful Christmas in a beautiful property. Hope to return in the future.

Beautiful place much bigger than pics and very nicely decorated. Stocked with general cleaning products and host are amazingly friendly and helpful . Would most definitely recommend this property .ps the hot tub was so lovely and warm too. We travelled each day to different coastlines and all had a amazing time

Joanne

Lovely little village, 2 pubs to eat n drink, fish n chip shop, couple of cafes and a kiosk nr the beach that does coffees etc great pizzas too! ! Beach was great for our four legged friends!! The house fantastic, great location, everything you could possibly need and the Hot tub was the icing on the cake!!

Elizabeth

This is an absolutely lovely home. Very spacious, seems a lot bigger than the photos. I liked the bright quirky decor, right down to the glittery French bulldogs! It was spotlessly clean but a practical comfortable home, I wasn't scared of the dogs breaking anything and we could relax. The hot tub in the garden was the finishing touch, and lovely to relax in after long walks on the beaches and cliff paths. Cemaes is a beautiful place with a big sweeping sandy bay where the dogs can run there is a restriction for part of the beach but they are allowed on the nicest bit! There are a couple of cafes and pubs and a convenience store. There is also a nice river walk five minutes from the house which is great for dogs to have some off lead time first thing in the morning. A perfect holiday. My only criticism is that the beds are getting a bit worn out.

Stopped here for a week as a family of 3, daughter aged 10 and we brought her friend also 10. As with previous reviews on Sykes website the electrics are clearly not tested as should be. Sockets not working, loose switches in the conservatory and a dangerous extension lead the owner uses to plug in the bedside lamps. MY DAUGHTER was electrocuted while plugging in this extension lead as the back had fallen off the plug which she didn't realise. All the house sockets tripped ! My daughter received a painful shock and numbness through her body and had since been suffering from headaches. The owners have dismissed our complaint so we are consulting with our lawyers.

Wow! What an absolute beautiful property this was. The owners have done amazing. We stayed in ceamis bay in Aug 2022, 2nd time running now. The property had everything you needed and was made to feel like home. Would highly recommend a stay here

This is a beautiful property, very well equipped, clean and comfortable. About 10 minutes walk away from the amenities of the village and beach. The cottage is very close to a busy road but that was the only downside. We would certainly return to the cottage, and we were blessed with wonderful weather. The hot tub was perfect.

The old smithy had everything we could have possibly wanted with a stunning decor, it was spotlessly clean with a very well equipped kitchen all this provided a great base for us to explore Anglesey. Lee and Dave were great hosts who who were always on hand if needed. Keep up the good work!

We were VERY happy with our stay at The Smithy in Cemaes Anglesey the house was ... We were VERY happy with our stay at The Smithy in Cemaes Anglesey the house was brilliant better then what we thought it was a good bass for site seeing well acquired with all kitchen needs will be going again
