This hotel is providing limited rooms/service as it is up for sale. Nevertheless, the rooms are cleaned daily and have free wifi. There is no restaurant and the bar is only open 4-8pm. So very few resources, but Treaddur Bay has shops, pubs snd restaurants. The Spar sells lobster! So if you are prepared for limited facilities but a clean and peaceful stay this is a good choice

Terrible

Terrible beds, dated decor, broken loo seat. No sleep due to thin walls and a loudly snoring neighbour! However, we had a partial sea view, the host was genial and we had a lovely evening a short drive away in Trearddur Bay!

2 night getaway

Arrived at 3.50 pm to a hotel locked with a notice stating open at 4.00 pm. Hotel on line says 3.00pm book in. Notified at check in that food is no longer available onsite apart from continental breakfast. Talking to another guest we were told that the owners were considering about selling the hotel. Room was acceptable and clean apart from a few slight carpet stains

We booked the accommodation after checking their website which indicated meals were available. However on arrival we were informed that no meals were available. The location is 2 miles in either direction. Note that the taxi service is very poor in the area.

We really didn’t mind staying here, the walls are really thin so it is very noisy when other guests are coming and going. It would be helpful to have soap in the rooms and maybe shampoo and conditioner sachets
