Glan Towyn

Another amazing holiday on our 3rd visit to Glan Towyn.

We absolutely love this place, stunning location and a very beautiful house with everything you can think of. The owners are true professionals at what they do. If Glan Towyn is too big for your group check out Bodior Cottages decked out in real style to the same exacting standards. I’m sure we will be back again and it was great to meet you on this occasion.

What an amazing cottage right on a beautiful beach the children and grandchildren had a wonderful time on the kayaks and paddle boards they have supplied everything.

Lovely views from the balcony would definitely like to go back.

An amazing holiday home with beautiful views.

The hosts provided everything you can ever think of at hand to make our stay comfortable. A family of 9 adults, 3 children who thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend. Thank you.

We had such a lovely stay at Glan Towyn and honestly didn’t want to leave.

The accommodation has been finished to such a high standard but still feels cosy and welcoming. The layout is fantastic and everything you could possibly need is there, with all the modern amenities to make sure your stay easy and comfortable. The location is amazing. The beach is 100 yards away which was perfect for coastal walks. The views of Snowdonia from the balcony are incredible, especially in the morning and evening. Emma and Dan are obviously passionate about this beautiful house and making sure their guests have the best stay possible. You can tell a lot and love and care has gone into every detail. We had a brilliant time and would definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely stay.

The house is in a lovely location with amazing views. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, large sitting room with space for all 11 of us. We had an issue that the EV charger did not work, the owner was very responsive when we got in touch and tried to resolve it but despite their best efforts this remained unavailable. This had an impact because we then had to plan our days around finding alternative charging options (which are few and far between) we had deliberately booked a property that offered EV charging so it was disappointing that this wasn't possible.

A beautiful house in an amazing position by the beach.

Beautifully maintained lots of rooms for our family of 12. A great entertaining space for a family celebration. Our grandchildren loved the beach, sea, hot tub and games room. The White Eagle pub just up the hill is lovely.

This was our 5th visit to this fantastic property for a multigenerational family holiday.

Its setting so close to the sea, fabulous views, great walks plus only being 5 minutes walk to the pub just works for us. The house is so beautifully presented with great facilities. Will definitely be returning!!

Without doubt, the best property we have ever stayed in.

The location is superb and every aspect of the house had been so well planned and contributed to what was a comfortable, enjoyable and memorable break for all of us. As a family of 11, ages ranging from 11 to 82, there was something for everybody. There was a slight hiccough on arrival as the owner hadn't been notified of our bed configuration request, but this was very quickly and efficiently resolved and we all had a great time. We'll definitely be back.

Absolutely fantastic house and fabulous facilities, so close to a beautiful beach and a great pub

Fabulous property, absolutely stunning.

Great location and fabulous birds around the reed beds.

Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed our stay at this amazing property.

  We loved the decor, the views and the wonderful feeling of being so close to the sea. We made good use of all the facilities including the BBQ, the games room, the kayaks and the paddleboards. We really appreciated the little extras such as the goody bag on arrival, a really nice touch, the full coffee jar ready for use in the superb coffee machine and the charcoal for the BBQ. In short, a wonderful property and a superb location resulted in a brilliant weekend.  Finally, we look forward to using your property at some point in the near future.

Glan Towyn is a lovely house with beautiful views.

A lovely welcome pack to greet us, this house has everything you want and more, it’s very well equipped, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen has everything you might need and we made use of the hot tub, kayaks and paddle boards, we didn’t want to go home!

A fantastic property, amazing interior, styles, furniture and.

..well...everything. It is perfectly positioned for the beach and situated in a wonderful area. We loved it so much, we plan to go again next year! Definitely one of the best properties we have stayed in. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful holiday home in a stunning setting.

A fabulous house - with gorgeous views from many of the beautifully decorated rooms.

The William Morris designs are fabulous. Well-equipped kitchen, lots of seating areas inside and out (including 3 balconies). Thank you to the owners who have created a thoughtful, high-end, holiday home for us to enjoy. Very much appreciated. We had a lot of fun in the games room. We enjoyed lovely coastal walks and a bracing paddle in the sea - a very short walk from the house. Enjoyed hearing and seeing the birds every day. It was such a peaceful, relaxing week we returned home feeling invigorated (and perhaps keen to add a William Morris design or two to our home...)

What a fabulous house for our large family getaway.

This was our 4th visit to Glan Towyn. Fabulous location, less than a minutes walk to the beach with glorious views from the upstairs living areas/balconies over the sea. Lovely coastal walks on our doorstep. Beautifully decorated with fantastic kitchen/dining area that allowed all 12 of us (plus baby in high chair) to sit down to meals together. Large family lounge, and a smaller snug lounge downstairs amongst the bedrooms that allowed separate group activities. The games room and hot tub were well used too. All of this plus a great pub a 5 minutes walk away…. !

Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful: William Morris.

What more can I say?! What an amazing house! A great week spent with family and friends x

Everything for everyone from grannie with cosy chairs, roaring fire, great views and ground floor bedrooms to teenagers with a games room, water sports equipment, hot tub and easy beach access.

The local walks are absolutely beautiful. Angelsey Fine Foods delivered excellent meats and Tesco provided the rest. We had no need or desire to use the car for the whole week! The house is stunning. Beautifully furnished, clean and well equipped. We felt the owners really cared about us having a good time. Simply perfect!

Our group of 8 are just back from a 3-night stay at Glan Towyn and we can't speak highly enough of it.

The pictures on the site are great, but really don't do the location justice. The views are stunning and the design of the property certainly makes the most of them. It's incredibly well stocked / equipped - the kitchen pretty much has everything you need to cook up a storm and keep everyone well fed. We also made use of the paddle boards, kayak and games room over the course of the weekend. Everyone had a ball and we'd certainly recommend this place without hesitation. Thanks for having us!

We had a fabulous family stay in August and were so lucky with sunny days.

The house is so spacious and beautifully styled. Sports equipment were good on site and the location to the beach is superb. Hot tub was clean and warm and the garden area was brilliant for cricket! We booked a private chef for two nights and had a good quality BBQ and fabulous local produce meal on another. We will definitely re book in 2025!

It was such a beautiful property.

12 family members and friends came with a range of ages from 28 to 80 and the house suited everyone. We go away to self catering properties at least 4 times a year and have done for over 20 years. This was by far the best for comfort, maintenance and was equipped with everything you could think of. It was lovely how much thought and care had gone into making the property as perfect as it can be.

Absolutely beautiful property.

Perfect. We had a fabulous holiday. Thank you.

Our group of Friends are all in Luxury Travel and the House and décor absolutely 1st Class We enjoyed our stay very much and thank you for sharing your beautiful home xx

We absolutely loved our stay here.

The location and proximity to the beach and lovely coastal walks was great. The house itself was beautiful and comfortable and accommodated a mixed generation family really well. Kids loved the games room (also used as a very peaceful yoga studio when no kids on it!!) and the hottub and garden. Fabulous! Thank you for having us, we will definitely recommend.

This is our 3rd visit to Glan Towyn for a large family get together.

As always the house worked extremely well for us. Beautifully decorated and obviously lots of thought into the design and furnishings to make a lovely experience for visitors. Huge kitchen/diner area with fantastic views over the sea. All the necessary cooking, crockery and cutlery required to cope with large scale food preparation and dining. Large sitting areas that allowed different groups to play games, watch TV or just to chill without interrupting each other. Even a small study area which allowed some of our group to do some work in peace and quiet. Being February could not use all the outdoor facilities, but was able to use one of the balconies on a few occasions and the hot tub was well used! Located within short walking distance of the beach and to a pub. What more do you want! Once again a great visit!

Wow, what an amazing way to celebrate turning 50.

The house is perfect in every way. Long coastal walks, the hot tub, table tennis tournaments, log fires! Glan Towyn will always hold such very special memories. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful coastal retreat.

House was beautiful with views that took your breath away.

we were a large family celebrating an 80th birthday and the property provided space and plenty of choice with a very popular games room which the grandchildren enjoyed.Just a short walk to the sea where several unspoilt small beaches could be accessed at low tide.Wonderful holiday.

We have stayed here twice now (both times March) and I’ve only now realised I haven’t left feedback!

The second time we stayed here we felt like we had come home. It’s the most beautiful holiday home. It feels so special yet not precious. I love the fact I can be on the beach at 7am with my dogs and not another soul around. The coastal walks around are stunning. The White Eagle up the road is great for dogs and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The welcome packages we’ve received on arrival are always so appreciated and I was excited for it the second time round after not expecting it the first time! It’s a wonderful base for seeing other areas of Anglesey, though the second time we mainly stayed in the house and on the beach. When talking to shop owners and walkers, they know Glan Towyn well! It’s a bit of local legend! And so deserves to be. I know we will be back. The attention to detail hasn’t been matched anywhere else! We’re actually looking to buy our own holiday home on the island after being inspired by Glan Towyn in both its location, facilities and style. But I’m sure we’ll be back many times before then!

Fantastic property in a great location by the beach.

Top quality specifications throughout.

What a wonderful house!

We have had the best week at Glan Towyn. The house and facilities are perfect; all 12 of us (3 generations) were so comfortable. The decor and furnishings are aspirational - it is all SO well curated. The games room and outside areas were perfect for the children and the adults really appreciated the 4 sitting rooms to choose from with plenty of sofas and armchairs to go around. The 3 balconies were well used to take advantage of the beautiful views. The amazing kitchen is so well stocked and has a huge island unit and dining table to allow us to eat together. We didn’t explore much of the local area by car as we didn’t need to - we swam in the sea every morning, warmed up in the hot tub, went for lovely coastal walks, visited the local pub and even saw seals in Rhoscolyn bay. We christened the house the HHOD - Holiday House of Dreams and it really has ruined us for the future. I don’t think we could stay anywhere better. At the end of the week we left as firm fans of William Morris and even bigger fans of Rhoscolyn. A magical place.

An amazing property with every guest and eventuality catered for, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean.

Perfectly proportioned for my family group ranging from 8 to 69! So close to the beautiful beach as well - perfect for the kids and dogs! Being city dwellers the single track lane was the only downside and hence why I’ve given it a 8/10 as a recommendation, but for people who are used to them kinds of roads I’d say 10 out of 10! A lovely long weekend living a very luxurious life

We have just had the most amazing week ever staying in this property.

I have stayed in lots of sykes cottages and this is the best so far. In addition to the hot tub, sauna and games room, you have a minutes walk (max) to the beach, option to lay on the sun loungers or play cricket in the garden or read on the balconies. A bonus was the short walk to the pub where the food was delicious. Our family will take back the most incredible memories whilst celebrating my Sons 30th birthday. Thank you Emma and the team.

Glan Towyn was the absolute perfect place for our 40th birthday celebration week.

The property itself is gorgeous and so uniquely decorated, with such thought and care and good quality, well maintained furniture. The kitchen/dining room has such beautiful views out of the massive windows, and we spent a lot of time on the balcony when we were in the house. It is a short walk to a quiet beach, and the provision of wetsuits and paddleboards, kayak and other beach and garden items was an absolute bonus as it meant we got to try things that we wouldn't have normally. The hot tub was lovely and clean, as was the sauna and bbq. It also has a charge point for EV vehicles which was a great bonus for my brother as he didn't have to hunt down somewhere to charge. We loved having a games room too - this was right up my families street. The White Eagle up the road was a great pub/place to eat. The guidance in the property was also really useful for looking into other places to go. There are really nice walks from the property too. Word of warning - the lane to the property is single track and tight. You get used to it, but be aware if you have a giant car (although we had 2 4WD and a small motorhome and were ok) In summary, it is a beautiful place and area that we didn't want to leave, and wish we could return to again and again.

Just superb!

Excellence in location and facilities contributed to a memorable weekend celebrating a “significant “ birthday.

A fabulous house in a great loaction, we loved our stay and did not want to come home, 11 people in our party from aged 80 to aged 6 and we all had a fantastic time, the house is fully equipped with eveything you could need and more.

5 stars.

..!!! our party of 12 aging from 15-90 Loved it.. Fantastic location, fantastic facilities. The pictures on the website do not do the house justice.. Well worth every penny.. Thank you Kathryn

Fabulous holiday.

Worked so well for all 3families. Facilities were amazing. Think we had a go at everything. Early morning walks on the beach were incredible. We were so lucky with the weather. The house was so homely. You felt you could relax there, even with four children and dogs. You have thought of everything. Excellent, thank you. We hope to be back next year.

Our second visit to Glan Towyn.

Did not disappoint! What a great house for a big family group. Lots of room, very well equipped to cope with a house full, beautifully furnished and decorated, great views……and a lovely pub only a five minute walk away. Beach even closer!

Absolutely amazing house, as good as it looks in the pictures.

Stunningly decorated, with everything you need. Beautiful view of the sea with lovely walks at our fingertips. I celebrated my 50th birthday and staying at the house is something I will remember for a long time.

The house had everything and more.

We made full use of the hot tub, sauna , kayak and paddle boards. The games room was a bonus ; we enjoyed a family table tennis tournament! The bedrooms are all very comfy and the whole house is beautifully furnished. We will definitely come again.

This is our second visit and certainly didn’t disappoint.

The location is exceptional being a stones throw from the beautiful bay. The house is a lovely family home and very comfortable. The games room and hot tub a must. We will be back.

We have just spent a week with our children and grandchildren in this wonderful property.

We didn't need to use our car once we arrived as the beach is a 2 min walk away. We made full use of the kayak and paddle boards supplied by the owner and in the evenings the children and adults were entertained in the games room. The property was very clean and well stocked with crockery , utensils and cooking items. We would highly recommend this property.

A truly fabulous property in a magical location.

The owner emailed us before the holiday with helpful information and suggestions, then messaged us on arrival to check that everything was ok. We had a great family holiday.

We had a fabulous week at Glan Towyn.

The house was really well furnished, spotlessly clean and very spacious. The owners had thoughtfully provided many things that you would normally find in a hotel rather than self catering accommodation, so we had everything that we needed. We enjoyed use of the games room in particular and our dog was living his best life running around the garden and walking on the beach. Wonderful.

Fantastic house, lovely location a really special place

We have had the most amazing week staying here.

The owners have supplied everything you would need to cook, play and relax. The house is stunning and the view from the balcony is the best. The location is superb with access to a wonderful beach and easy access to all the amazing places to visit on Anglesey. We would definitely make a return visit.

A beautiful house with everything catered for, it felt like a home not a holiday rental.

Perfect location too.

Absolutely fabulous we have had the most wonderful time at this beautiful house.

Everything we could have possibly wanted was there and although the weather could have been kinder we had a lovely time. We loved the location of the house, all its excellent facilities, it’s proximity to the beach, the lovely walks, the daily Seal hunts, the wonderful sea views, hot tub, sauna I could go on and on all in all highly recommended .

Wonderful property and overall a fabulous holiday.

It is so close to the beach and has absolutely everything you could need. Thanks again.

The house is beautiful, spacious, well-equipped and the location is simply perfect.

My dream home on a beach. We slept so well after being out all day long and the weather was even sunny and dry enough for us to paddleboard, kayak and swim. Knowing that there was a warm shower, sauna and hot tub to warm up in was worth that initial cold shock from the sea! Our dogs had the time of their life on the beach and with the beautiful coastal walking. We had planned to eat out at local restaurants but only managed to tear ourselves away from the kitchen and stunning views once (we had dinner at the White Eagle - lovely food and the dogs were made very welcome). I would definitely recommend getting a supermarket home delivery to bring everything to the door for when you arrive....you really won't want to leave!

The property and its location were just so, so special!

I don't think either could be bettered and the photos really don't do justice to the stunning rooms and the extensive equipment. We were a family of 10 spanning three generations aged 12 to 76. There was something to delight each of us and it seemed every little thing that would enhance our stay had been provided. Even a pair of binoculars strategically placed beside a balcony window. The younger element of the group were thrilled by the contents of the "shed" and put the wet suits to use. They also loved escaping to their very own snug lounge when the rest of us were heading for bed! We all enjoyed the hot tub, silly games round the table after dinner, late night football on the telly, toasted marshmallows on the BBQ and, us older ones, the cosy log fire with cheese and port! We all agree that we would love to return.

A truly wonderful setting for a family gathering.

Easily one of the best houses we have ever stayed at. My brother described it well - “it’s on another level to nice!” We were a family group comprising of grandparents, their children and the grandchildren. The house catered for all ages and is finished to a very high standard. It is big and we’ll laid out, giving everyone plenty of space and a number of different living spaces. The views are amazing and all together this makes for a pretty special stay. Would highly recommend!

This house is phenomenal.

Such beautiful decor and so well equipped. Such a fantastic location. We will definitely be returning!

Lovely property, beautifully presented and fantastically equipped for a large family group.

Loved our stay …. Thank you

Glan Towyn is amazing!

We spent a fantastic long weekend with a group of friends at the house. The owners have created a modern, contemporary but also a traditional luxury home. It really is amazing in real life! Upon arrival were we overwhelmed with Glan Towyn and quickly felt relaxed and so at home there. The kitchen wanted for nothing and the views from both balconies in the daylight are stunning. The house is decorated in William Morris furnishings which we are now all in love with. It is literally 2 minutes walk to the beach and 5 minutes to the White Eagle pub. For a winter or summer destination Glan Towyn really does tick all the boxes for all generations. We walked the coastal path to Treaddur Bay and the scenery is breathtaking. The owners have created a holiday haven. We all enjoyed the game’s room, the sauna and hot tub. All bedrooms are super luxurious and with two fantastic lounges plus a snug there is always a quiet place to sit and relax by the log burners. We really cannot fault Glan Towyn and would love to return there year and year. Thank you to the Nikols family for thinking of everything that really does make a holiday perfect! An amazing gem in beautiful Rhoscolyn.

This property exceeded our expectations.

The pictures do not do it justice. We were a large group of friends with children of varying ages and everything was thought of, from sleeping arrangements to buckets, spades and wetsuits for a picturesque trip to the beach. I received a couple of extremely helpful and informative emails direct from the owner prior to my arrival and any questions I had were quickly responded to. The house is unique and idyllic and the little welcome package was the icing on the cake. We are really excited to book here again.

Absolutely stunning property and location, the owners have spared no expense.

Utterly superb

What a wonderful week we have had in this beautiful house.

It is surrounded by beautiful scenery and walks. The house itself is perfect for a family with its many rooms (for some grandchildren to escape to!). The games room was used every day as was the sauna. The kitchen is well stocked with two fridges, two dish washers in fact everything that we needed. The owners have carefully thought about their guests’ comfort and enjoyment. Even though some days the weather was not so kind we spent a wonderful week, exploring the area and if we were wet through could come back to a house which was warm and comfortable and accommodated our every needs. If l could give it more than ten out of ten, l would.

The most amazing house!

Thoroughly enjoy our week away. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need and every room has been beautifully decorated. We wanted to stay longer!

This was our 2nd visit to Glan Towyn in only a few months.

Where else can you find a truly beautiful house, on the nicest little beach on Anglesey and only a 5 minute walk to a great pub? Not only that but everyone in Rhoscolyn is so friendly. We spent a the entire week (again) going between the beach, and the gorgeous and comfy balcony, breaking routine only to walk to the pub. It’s a perfect swimming beach if you don’t mind sharing the sea with the seals. Seal watching In the evenings in the setting sun is memorable. Our dogs adore it too.

The cottage was excellent

Glan Towyn is everything and more, Our stay was amazing the house, the interior and the facilities were above and beyond.

Emma and the Nickols family, were incredibly welcoming and super helpful throughout our booking and stay. Every little detail has been thought about and considered with great care, you could not want for more, or fault any aspect of this truly spectacular beach house. The provided watersports equipment were a hit with the entire family and a great touch to make this stay extra special. The kitchen was beautiful and had everything you could ever need, it is rare to find a let so well equipped. The house itself was spotless and finished to an incredible standard, the William Morris décor is truly wonderful. We loved every minute of our stay thank you for making us feel so at home.

A stunning property in an equally stunning location.

Everything you could wish for and more. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable throughout. Felt at home as soon as you stepped through the door. Already planning a return visit.

The house is absolutely stunning and beautifully decorated/furnished.

It has everything a large family group likes ours could need (for both young and older family members). The location is stunning. Couldn't fault it at all. The owner was so helpful with recommendations etc. The owners have clearly put a lot of thought into giving holiday makers the best experience possible, both inside and outside of the house. All in all a First (Top) Class experience.

We had a fantastic family holiday, plenty to do and see, perfect location, beautiful house, lots of gorgeous memories made.

My family and I had a wonderful holiday.

The house was amazing. The children loved having the games room, their own room to play and chat. I also appreciated the owner of the property being accessible and friendly. I would definitely recommend this holiday.

Emma was amazing, very responsive.

House was amazing, everything was thought of and catered for. Views and location were fantastic

We had a wonderful stay at Glan Towyn.

We had all age groups and we all had space to ourselves and also a wonderful kitchen to group together. The details were exceptional and I really couldn't fault this property at all. Views from virtually every window are wonderful, the beach is a step away and the hot tub was a huge hit with the teenagers! Thank you Emma for your help with getting the delicious lobsters!

Owners have thought of everything, such a beautiful house in a stunning location, Glan Towyn is a hidden gem.

Highly recommend we where a family group of 13, including 7 kids. Everyone had the time of their lives!

Glan Towyn is an amazing house set in an amazing location just a stones-throw from the beach.

The owners have thought of just about everything to make the holiday as enjoyable as possible. It takes something pretty special to excite teenagers but the kids in our group just wandered around the house shouting 'look at this' to just about everything. The games room became their sanctuary, playing pool, table tennis and darts. The rest of the house is just as special, with everything you could think of on-hand. The kitchen/diner area is vast with amazing views in all directions leading onto two raised terraces allowing the outside to come inside, or vice versa. The sheds house paddleboards, wetsuits, a great barbeque that cooked a paella brilliantly and even a sauna. The hot tub was spotless and the water changed weekly. The owners and housekeeping staff really went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and we couldn't praise them enough. The downside of having such as special house on such a lovely cove is that we didn't get to explore Anglesey much. We will definitely go back to Glan Towen and for longer than a week so we can explore further afield. Congratulations to the owners for creating and sharing such an amazing place.

The house exceeded our expectations and we had the most amazing week there.

We have never stayed in such a well equipped holiday let, the owner had thought of everything. The location was just perfect and the decor needs to be seen to be believed… it’s stunning! We will definitely be back.

The owners had gone above and beyond our expectations at Glan Towyn.

From the moment we walked through the door we were flabbergasted with the decor and facilities. They had thought of everything. There were easy to follow instructions enabling us to have a wonderful relaxing holiday. The William Morris decor was amazing. The views were stunning and access to the beach only a few yards away and the smell from the wild roses in the hedgerow was the cherry on the top.. Our dog loved the sea. The Hot tub was wonderful too. Many thanks for allowing us to share your amazing property. FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!!

Glan Towyn is absolutely lovely.

It is beautifully decorated, brimming with comfort and has everything anyone could wish for in a holiday home. On top of that it’s a few steps to the beautiful Rhoscolyn beach and a short walk to the pub! We enjoyed every minute from watching the wildlife in the marsh sitting on one of the 3 balconies to cosying up in front of the tv late at night after a glass of wine in the hot tub. We will certainly be back. If you are reading this review - go on spoil yourselves!!

Fantastic house and location.

Brilliant family break.
