Sandy Mount House
Rhosneigr, Anglesey
Good Hotel Guide Review
The sands of time have seen changes at this formerly drab Edwardian seaside guest house, now a ‘beautifully refurbished’ contemporary hotel and restaurant. ‘The fashionable grey clapboard exterior gives it a North American look,’ report our inspectors, who were ‘impressed by the quality of the accommodation’. Through the bar and restaurant, up steep stairs, Driftwood room had a sea view, ‘a super-king bed with large, padded headboard, stylish art, an espresso machine, china cups, milk in a fridge, a bath with shower over, an old-fashioned washbasin and loo’. It was ‘spacious, coastal, bright’. There is ‘a breezy, smart, beachy look’ to the restaurant, with bench seating, ‘Lloyd Loom-type chairs, light shades like lobster pots’. An open kitchen dispensed ‘crab hash browns with creamed sweetcorn and smoked chilli dressing (disappointing), exceptionally good mussel chowder; a coarse-ground beef burger as good as any good burger’. In the morning a tray of tea and coffee in flasks, with croissants and juice, was left outside the door before ‘the main breakfast, full Welsh or vegetarian, eaten in the restaurant, all enjoyable’.
