• Refundable Security Deposit

• Fees

• Use of Facilities

Here you will find out what is included, what is not, what you can/should take, and what you can’t take, sorry!

Please ensure that you have completed your check in online before travel (in a separate section further below).

It is only complete when you have received your key safe code. 

2 dogs are permitted for £30 each (pre-arranged and payable prior to arrival), any additional dogs are permitted only at the owner’s discretion and for an additional fee of £30 each. Dogs found in residence not pre-arranged will be subject to an additional fee of £50. No dog is to be left unattended whatsoever. Dogs are not permitted in bedrooms or on furniture including sofas and should sleep in a crate. Guests are liable for all damage and or extra cleaning caused by their dogs. Guests must remove all traces (inside and out) from the property of pet occupation before departure. The property owner reserves the right to levy any additional charge for any extra cleaning required after guest occupancy. Outside of the property, dogs must always be kept on a lead and not allowed to roam, not all areas are fenced off. Dogs causing too much noise, especially after dark, may be asked to leave. 

Bed linen and towels (for indoor use only) are provided and made up ready (generally white and are owned by an external laundry company so please take good care of them as they reject and charge us if they are stained, damaged or lost, so we have to pass the charges on to you).

Irons and ironing boards are supplied.

For coffee, we supply cafetières so any ground coffee will do (no need for specific pods or filter paper).

Each property has at least one fridge and freezer and extra where guest capacity is higher. Please do not over-fill them, especially the door shelves as they are not designed to take lots of heavy bulky items, and cooling times will obviously increase with overfilling, especially during warmer months and if you have travelled with non chilled items and then load them in.

All of our accommodation is provided on a self catering basis with enough cooking/eating equipment per property for the maximum capacity of guests. We don’t provide any kitchen or bathroom consumables or include them in our pricing structure as everyone has their own tastes and choices, so why would we force our choices on them and charge for them? Guests must take their own food, drink, condiments, oils, seasoning, spices, toiletries and cleaning products.

More details on local amenities, shops etc should be available in the Amos Holiday Homes Unofficial Guide to the Local Area

We recommend that you take the following…

• Extra towels, gowns and sensible non-slip footwear etc for the hot tub, if installed
• Seasoning, spices, sauces, oils and hot drink ingredients
• Toiletries and toilet roll
• Bin bags
• Cleaning products (please only use eco friendly products, please do not bring any bleach or harmful chemicals as it will upset our bio water treatment facility)
  
• Device chargers and hair dryers (PAT tested)
• Instant light BBQ coal (if BBQ installed)
• Own travel cot and child safety related equipment

The following are not supplied sorry!:

• Hair dryers
• Clothing steamers
• Torches/lanterns/candles
• USB sockets, device chargers
• Travel cots 
• Christmas decorations (we try to be all inclusive, also lights and decorations may cause damage/risk of fire) 

Please do not take any of the following, they are not allowed sorry!:

• Tents, gazebo’s/portable shelters/means for sleeping outside
• BBQ’s, fire-pits, candles, open flame lanterns
• LPG or flammable liquids.

Please prepare for the unforeseen and for events beyond anyone’s control such as adverse weather etc by bringing appropriate provisions and equipment for your stay (including some good old fashioned games and entertainment!).

As our properties are generally located in rural and conservation sensitive locations, please be aware that paths, driveways and some roads may not be tarmac’d, treated or cleared of debris during adverse weather conditions, the grass may be long and wet, the ground uneven and not all areas and water features are fenced. There may be little or no street lighting, therefore we recommend you bring a torch for use during the hours of darkness. If you are travelling to us in the winter please consider arriving in suitable vehicles (recreational off-road vehicles are not allowed sorry).

Please arrive in a minimal number of vehicles where you can. There is enough parking outside each property (or as otherwise directed) for one car per bedroom, but any cars that cannot fit onto the property drive should park in another area and so that they cause no obstruction, otherwise they must be parked off site.

Please, in any circumstance, DO NOT leave a vehicle blocking a road so that emergency vehicles cannot gain access.

Please also note that we currently don’t have any Electric Vehicle charging facilities, we have not tested or been insured for it and they may cause damage to the power supply, so please don’t plug any vehicles into our mains at all. We will update this in the future when specific EV charging point have been installed.

(select images to expand)

Please use this Google Maps Link or follow these directions…

From Beaumaris, leave the town travelling north via the B5109 (castle on your left, sea on your right).

After 1.5 miles, follow the sign for Penmon by turning right.

Continue for just under another mile round a couple of tight bends then you will find us on the left (just past the entrance to the car park for Traeth Lleiniog, Safle Picnic / Lleiniog Beach Picnic Site which is on the right).

Please follow the white line in the image above to the allocated parking spaces in front of the main door. There you will see a sign “Long Barn”.

Please kindly be mindful of where you and other drivers in your group park if not in a driveway, not only to ensure that staff and other residents can get around, but more importantly so that any large emergency vehicles may gain access if necessary.

Please also note that we don’t have any Electric Vehicle charging facilities, we have not tested or been insured for it and they may cause damage to the power supply, so please don’t plug any vehicles into our mains.

Normal arrival time is any time after 4pm.

Requests for early arrivals is probably our most frequently asked question…

These are subject to other bookings and cleaning schedules (the cleaners never know until the day how much work is required so we can never honestly predict an actual ready time, but we try to ensure it is ready by 4pm). We really do appreciate that you want to get on with your holiday ASAP, but if we spend all day replying to requests it will slow progress. If you arrive early and the cleaners are still there, to keep your booking secure, they are instructed to not let anyone in (this will also slow their progress), to lock up, and to set your personal code on the key safe. 

Inside the property you will find bedding (already made up) and towels, these must only be used inside, we recommend you take extra towels etc for the outdoors. There will also be enough equipment, for cooking, refrigeration, freezing and laundry for the capacity of guests.

Regarding the condition of the property and your refundable security deposit, we have a system of a cleaner and a checker, usually the same teams cleaning the same properties. The properties are also maintained by our own staff, therefore, we are usually aware of any wear/tear and damaged/missing items and strive to rectify things when we can, which is not always possible during back to back bookings. Please be assured that there should be no need to inform us of this, however, if you feel it affects your stay, please be in touch with staff in person or via the Help contact form and please also inform us ASAP of any damage etc caused by your group so that we can rectify it ASAP for yourselves and subsequent guests.

Between all bookings, hot tubs (if installed) will be completely drained & sanitised for your own group’s wellbeing. Details of the general condition, settings, temperatures and chemical balances are recorded at least daily. Please kindly bear in mind that if we have had a booking vacating on the day of your arrival, sufficient time must be allowed for the large volume of fresh cold water to heat up. Please do not disrupt the reheating process, do not attempt to alter hot tub temperature or settings, do keep the lid on to retain heat as much as possible and you must not use the hot tub until you have read all of the HOT TUB T’s & C’s & INSTRUCTIONS, these are detailed in The Small Print and must be adhered to at all times (if necessary, contact us before use so that we can guide you), failure to do so may incur charges for damages or your hot tub may be closed and decommissioned due to misuse.

Access codes are provided to the lead guest only once check in online has been completed and the refundable security deposit has been paid.

The key is located inside a, electronic key safe by the door to the property.

The code is specific to your booking and is only valid between your scheduled arrival date and time and departure date and time.

Please enter the code provided by email by pressing firmly (a “beep”/tone confirms each successful press) followed by the “tick” button.

If you make a mistake, press the “X” button then start again.

We strongly recommend that for security reasons and to avoid loss and subsequent lock replacement charges (our keys cannot be replicated), that you keep the keys in the key safe as much as possible. It also helps staff if they need to go into the property to carry out any urgent maintenance or checks in your absence.

The charge for lost keys is a minimum of £100.

Please see the Extras button/link below this property guide. Please bear in mind that requesting items may cause a call out for a member of staff so all costs must be covered. To summarise, at this property…

Dogs and Extra car parking are available.

Not at this location

Normal departure time is by 10am.

In consideration of guests arriving after you, and our cleaning team, you are requested to vacate on your departure day on time please.

On the day of departure, staff may need to start early on the hot tub, and you may see cleaners nearby outside ready to start. Please don’t see this as added pressure, they just need to ensure they have enough time to prepare everything for our next guests.

Later departures, like early arrivals would normally not be possible to arrange in advance due to other potential/last minute bookings, and even if there is no new arrival after you, the cleaners and maintenance staff may already have had to schedule in cleaning your property at 10am to fit in with other demands company-wide for that day/week.

If possible, prices will be on application.

Before you leave, please…

• Leave your property in a clean state
• Remove all personal items, unused food and waste
• Stack the dishwasher and start it
• Ensure that there is no dirty cooking equipment.
• Bedding may be left in place (it helps our cleaners to check and count), unless soiled (in which case please bag it with a bin liner).
• Double check that all windows and doors are closed and locked.
• Place the keys back into the key safe and ensure it is closed and locked.

If you decide to leave early, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can secure the property.

As per The Small Print and terms of the Refundable Security Deposit, charges will be made for loss, damage or if excessive cleaning is required.
