  • "This was our second visit to Glan y Don - we had an amazing week with some lovely weather."

    We ate at Garddfon inn twice - fantastic food and service. The cottage is warm and comfortable and a great base for Snowdonia and Anglesey. We will definitely return soon.

    We enjoyed it alot. The village has everything you need, including a fantastic pub, a lovely Thai restaurant, a shop and a couple of good cafes. Parking was never a problem. bar Lloft also good. Excellent location for exploring North Wales - Snowdonia, Anglesey, Carnarfon and Conwy all a short drive. Good public transport options too.

  • "We love everything about Glan y Don."

    It never disappoints, its position, cleanliness, comfort would take some beating. Cottage is well equipped, beds are so comfortable. It’s very well placed for easy reach to the best destinations. We have stayed multiple times and do not have any thought of staying anywhere else.

    The owners were very welcoming and everything was perfect - even the weather! The Garddfon Inn next door but three is superb! We only wished that we could have stayed longer. Thank you for everything. Diolch yn fawr am bopeth.

  • "My family has stayed in a few times in the place and it never disappoints."

    We like the place, there’s a good pub with bice food, right next door. Playgrounds are for kids across the road, nice view of the Menai (canal?), we see mostly families, dog walkers, and people on water sports related passing by. There’s a good walking path nearby with nice views. Not far from Bangor, Caernarfon, and just about 20-30 minutes from Snowdon. To us is a nice hidden gen.

    If was used to soon after being switched on it didn’t come on. But that didn’t stop our stay there being lovely and in such a great position

  • "This was our second consecutive year at this property."

    Open plan and sizeable, as well as spotless, it is an ideal set up for a family. The property itself is perfectly located on the seafront where the kids enjoyed crabbing and watching boats. And the property is a very short walk from a family run pub, which is also handy. Highly recommend.

  • "Second visit."

    Love the position in Y Felihini, with sea, mountains, cycling, walking and 3 nice eateries in walking distance. Glad Y Don just misses a few little touches to really make it perfect - a few well thought out pictures and a welcome pack (so often provided by caring owners these days) would provide much cheer! Thanks again though.

  • "A great location for exploring North Wales."

    The house was very clean and had just about everything you would need. However, I would have expected hand soap and basic cleaning essentials to be provided. Also, the high chair straps were disgusting. Overall, we had a great stay!

  • "We have stayed in this property several times, we go back to it for a number of reasons, we have come to know that the presentation of Glan y Don is always perfect , this is very important to us."

    The position on the banks of the Menai Straits is lovely, it is well placed for visiting many iconic buildings and areas to walk, we find lots of new places every time we visit.

  • "Lovely cottage in a brilliant location, looking straight out onto the Menai Straits."

    Great foody pub just a few doors down and the Thai restaurant 5 mins away is also really good. The cottage had everything we needed for the week and is very modern and comfortable. Y Felinheli is a great location for getting over to Anglesey - Newborough beach, Beaumaris and Penmon point, as well as only being 20 mins into Snowdonia for zip world. Lovely off road cycle from the end of the road into Caernarfon.

    The views are 10/10 and the only thing that spoilt is was the weather (but you are in North Wales). Ideal spot for nearby activities and with a fantastic pub that serves fantastic food only four doors away....... you cannot go wrong!!! We will most definitely recommend this place to stay and we will be back again for sure!!!

  • "Lovely house."

    Really liked the sea views! The house was very comfortable. As it was sunny and warm when we stayed we were able to take advantage of the fact that we were on the seafront by taking walks along the cycle path to see the boats in the marina nearby. Our toddlers enjoyed the nearby playground. There is a pub serving food close by and the village has an excellent Chinese takeaway. Would recommend this property.
