Glandwr Cottage

We loved it.

House and garden were beautiful. Only thing we never liked was the shower.

The cottage was beautiful, perfect location, walks right on the door step, beaches within short drive, the garden was so peaceful, the cottage was very comfy and homely ✌️

I stayed at this property with my husband, son, my future daughter in law and their 8 month old baby plus one large German Shepherd dog and a small Jackapoo.

There was plenty of room for us all, plus more. I did do some cooking from scratch and I found all of the utensils I needed. The garden is a large enclosed cottage garden, with small pathways going in different directions, through shrubs and under archways full of climbing roses, a real sensory overload of wonder fragrances, visual colours and let's not forget the sound of the river. I'm a light sleeper and I did wonder if the river would keep me up at night, but once you are in the cottage and the windows are closed you can not hear it. With the windows open the noise is minimal. The front garden is a sun trap in the afternoon where my husband spent many an hour relaxing. Out and about We have a dog that can be reactive to other dogs so we need big open spaces to walk him. There are many beaches nearby that are very dog friendly and they are huge, one beach my son went to you can drive your car on, which was very handy for the dog . There are pubs within a short drive away from the cottage (you could walk it but there is no path and it is a bit of a walk). Barmouth seaside town Is nearby about a 30 minutes drive from the cottage, it has amusement arcade, a small fun fare and shops. The cottage was a great place to escape for some peace and quiet and an excellent base for you to explore.

Lovely old cottage, grounds spacious and well laid out secure for dogs.

Kitchen spacious as well as living room, main bedroom large other bedrooms seemed to have a beds shoe horned into them. The downside, fridge freezer was described by my wife as “minging” and smelt or the smell could have been in the pantry, we put food for the freezer into plastic bags. The oven dials had no markings so had to guess temperatures and the grill didn’t work. Hot water tap in bathroom was a trickle television in main bedroom didn’t work and no welcome pack for the living room fire.

Lovely cottage in a lovely spot.

Lovely walks from the door and short drive to beaches. Cottage very homely and large garden but we couldn’t sit out because not secure for the dogs. Just a couple of things spoilt it for us, The road was quite busy outside the cottage and cattle grid noisy so not totally peaceful. Garden not totally secure, ok for very small dogs.

Wow, what a lovely cottage in a beautiful quiet location.

The cottage was the perfect place to explore the Welsh countryside and mountains. Also very close to the picture perfect beach and castle at Harlech. Apart from a few cleaning issues upon arrival and a lack of any fire wood it was a very pleasant stay. The bed was very comfy and the kitchen was well equipped to cook a Sunday lunch. The garden is a lovely addition and the sound of the rushing water from the two rivers across from the cottage was a welcome addition that made our stay even more enjoyable. We will definitely be booking it again for next year.

Beautiful,peaceful and so comfortable.

We stayed for New Year and it was perfect.The cottage is so lovely. We were kept so warm with the raeburn and log fire.And the heating provided.It felt were were cosy and part of the Welsh countryside with the rivers either side.We were lucky to have significant snowfall during our stay which made the surroundings and views even more amazing.Close to the beaches where the dog loved to run and wow they are just brilliant!! Thank you for a perfect stay.Highly recommend

This cottage is even better than the photos!

Crossing over the road bridge to reach the property, surrounded by two rivers and an abundance of trees, set the perfect tone for our stay. (Parking is easy and secure) The garden is spacious and fully secure for dogs, even the tiny ones which was such a relief. We entered through the back door into a lovely conservatory/morning room, the perfect spot for morning coffee. The lounge is traditional and cosy with a beautiful fire, and the kitchen had everything we needed (no issues storing boiled water). The bedrooms were comfortable and welcoming, and the bathroom was clean and well equipped. Our only small gripe was that the water pressure was a little low — but we managed just fine, and it didn’t take away from our enjoyment of this beautiful old cottage. The surrounding areas have plenty to offer from local walks to a full day out. And don’t worry about no central heating, the Rayburn keeps the kitchen warm and there are plenty of heaters and blankets available throughout the property.

Amazing place Cute and quaint Only thing is maybe few more facilities in kitchen general day to day items.

My second visit to the cottage this year.

The setting is a great place to be for walking, sea side beach visits and down time. Sadly no welcome pack as previous visit bottled water, milk and nibbles (tap water not for drinking). Contacted Sykes shortly after arrival and had need for discussion with housekeeper who offered advice, but we did our best to accommodate our needs including for bedding and lighting. Garden and outside space is magical and was well used by dogs on lead and for afternoon tea and relaxing. The Rayburn was on roasting temperature which spread throughout. There was almost everything in the kitchen you could possibly need apart from oven gloves and dishwasher. The cottage is beautiful and lovely. Would recommend and be happy to visit again. PS Would like to have communication with owner if possible

Kitchen very tired and muddled , tv didn’t work at all , we had a fire stick to get tv otherwise we wouldn’t have had any!

! Garden needs tidying and paths/patio needs cleaning (my wife slipped and fell on slippery surface!! ) , there was a new fence up the neighbours side but a gap at the end which I put a old fence panel against to stop our dogs getting into neighbours garden!, cottage lovely just needs some updating

We loved our trip to Glandwr cottage.

The cottage worked really well for our family, is in a lovely location and the perfect base for our week in North Wales. The only downside was that the cottage was very cold (even in the middle of summer) and with out the Rayburn on, it was difficult to dry towels, swimsuits and wetsuits. Also, we something in the cottage and it hasn’t been easy to contact you and the owner to arrange for its return.

All lovely and ready for us!

A quiet and soothing place....

Idyllic place in idyllic setting very comfortably provided with may good things to do and places see.

This is a beautiful property location is perfect lovely garden and home we spent evenings in the conservatory/snug not once was tv turned on as this room was so relaxing.

Walks all around with breathtaking scenery. 4th visit to Wales in years and loved every visit. But this one was definitely the best and we will definitely come again. Thank you too the owners for letting us stay in their beautiful cottage.
