United KingdomEverything was brilliant, we had a lovely stay, thank you!
United KingdomThe staff were very welcoming on my arrival. The room was cozy, but had all the amenities required. I stayed over with my dog, and there was a dog bed, 2 bowls and a treat available. There was also a sectioned off part of the field where I could walk the dog. The South Stack lighthouse is a short drive away. The main town was about a 10 minute drive away. The morning breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. This was my 2nd time staying here, and I was more than happy to stay again.
United KingdomSetting, closeness to ferry, quick response by owners
United States of AmericaWonderful location, very pet friendly, very near to Holyhead and the ferry to Dublin, but also excellent for a longer stay in a wonderful countryside hotel, excellent breakfast, all fresh cooked
NetherlandsThe staff are super friendly and really helpful. They upgraded us to a larger room without extra charge - so very thoughtful! A true "dog-friendly" establishment, Blackthorn Farm offered beds and bowls for our pups. So thoughtful!

Michelle & Richard, George & Luna the dogs
Blackthorn Farm is a family run business, and we have been operating since 2007. We welcome dogs, and being in an area of outstanding natural beauty it is perfect for walks and exploring. We love the fact that many or our guests return on a regular basis.
Richard is the owner, and runs it with a fantastic team. Michelle runs the office and reception, her husband Mike looks after the site and all the maintenance, Shirley is the housekeeper, and her sisters Wendy looks after all the laundry, and Julie keeps the shower blocks spotless for our campers. Dawn is the breakfast chef and also helps with the housekeeping, along with Glenda.
Blackthorn Farm is close to the Holyhead mountain, which is rich in minerals and was mined in years gone by. There are also many ancient rocks and ruins to explore, with 'standing stones' adjacent to Blackthorn Farm, and ancient 'hut circles' close by too.
