  • "We stayed at Bryn Glasfor as two couples with 4 children and a dog - The accommodation was extremely spacious and we especially loved the modernised ground floor with fantastic views of the sea and an amazing log burner- The beaches in the local area are definitely worth a visit, and the local town of Barmouth had all essential requirements and kept the children entertained with the small funfair and amusements."

    Communication with the owner was fantastic and we were even left a little welcome package upon our arrival. Fabulous stay had by all - especially if the sun is shining!

    Great facilities, great location and thank you go out hosts for the goodies provided. Our family was Nan, Grandad, son, Daughter, Daughter-in-law and three grandchildren (21,17 and 1 year old) and the house was just perfect.

  • "The property was amazing."

    So much space , and the games room , jacuzzi bath and hot tub were all a huge bonus which we used every day. The goodies that we received when we arrived were also such a lovely touch. The owners have put some real thought into letting this house and it shows. We will definitely be back.

    Thank you so much for your kind review, thank you for leaving our home immaculate also, Looking forward to your return. Property Owner

  • "We needed more plates, bowls and cups without chips)scratches."

    One meal worth is rather limiting .The bedspread on the master bedroom was marked. The hob was tricky to see and oven challenging to work out, being rather old. The water leak was fixed promptly but extremely hot when we left so you might want to check it in case someone gets scolded. Not enough hot water for the master bath, but perhaps that was linked to the water leak problem. Nice hot tub and lovely stay overall! Thank you

  • "A beautiful location and brilliant views over the bay looking out for dolphins."

    Something for everyone: Just relaxing on the terrace or in the hot tub, A short stroll down to the sandy north beach, A walk into Barmouth centre, or Hiking back over the Rhinogs after catching the train a few minutes walk away. Spacious property so you don't feel on top of one another. Looking to book again.

  • "Amazing location for sea views and sunsets, The house was very comfortable and very clean, the master bed shower we used was great, we had morning coffee on the balcony watching the sea."

    Ideal for our family get together and the hot tub a real bonus. Location great, you can walk to beach and into Barmouth itself. The owners have included nice touches throughout, even blankets for summer evenings by the bbq, we had a perfect break with lovely weather listening to the birds and sea waves. Thankyou
