“Thank you for the most wonderful weekend staying in your beautiful cottage!”

! Me and friends were extremely impressed with the cottage, we had a very comfortable stay and loved the decor in each bedroom & the kitchen was brilliant had everything we needed! My own criticism would be the lack of outdoor lighting near the hot tub where in late evening now it is darker we struggled with seeing where we were going. Apart from this, we had a fabulous time and will recommend this accommodation to friends and family :)

“Beautiful conversion, every family member absolutely loved this property.”

Very well finished, very clean, very cosy… and the hot tub was a real delight whilst it was pouring rain. Very friendly welcome from Eirian the owner.

Erin September 2024

“We had the best stay ever!”

The house was gorgeous as shown on the pictures and so spacious for 10 people. We went as a group of 9 and would recommend this property to everyone, the host was also very helpful and on hand if we needed anything. We will be back!

Sarah August 2024

“Not only beautiful in situ and decor but this house is fully equipped for evenings in!”

There wasn’t anything that we needed that wasn’t there. The host was lovely and on hand for local advice. We were a mixed aged party and had the most amazing week mainly because this property was so comfortably liveable. We will definitely be going back.

Harvey July 2024

“Excellent property, has everything you need for a short stay.”

Only problem was the hot tub wasn’t hot enough to be used on the first night but the owner sorted this out by the second night and was really helpful. Would definitely stay again!

“Was great to stay at a working farmhouse.”

As a family of 7 with grandparents and grandchildren we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Bigger and better than the photo's. Very clean, modern and a beautiful farmhouse. Must admit it is in the middle of nowhere but we enjoyed the peace and quiet and had the car to travel about. Beware of the country roads. All in all a great stay, would stay here again.

- Jacqueline, July 2024

“The hot tub could have been cleaned more often.”

- Sylvia, June 2024

Thank you for your 5 star rating and your comments. Our hot tub is emptied and refilled ahead of every guest's holiday and tested throughout their stay in accordance with hot tub safety requirements. This was carried out regularly during the week when you were out of the property for your own safety, and out of courtesy to you. Property Owner

“Just returned two weeks ago with family (from America) where we had the most fantastic week in this stunning converted farmhouse in the heart of North Wales.”

It is a true gem and blends modern luxury with classic charm. The exterior has breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and a beautiful hot-tub which some of us used to unwind after a day exploring North Wales. The interior has been meticulously designed and offers both elegance and comfort with spacious and sunlit rooms that are adorned with beautiful furnishings and exceptionally high-quality finishes. The kitchen is a chef's dream, equipped with huge appliances and ample space for socialising while cooking. The house is located in an ideal spot for exploring the beautiful towns of Conway, Llandudno, Caernarfon and many more, as well as close to Snowdonia National Park and Mount Snowden. Would love to stay here and visit again, thank you for this beautiful property. We created memories to last a lifetime. Thank You.

“Beautiful house set in a stunning location.”

The house is spacious, decorated to a very high standard and immaculate. The stairs are steep to the third floor bedrooms but all the bedrooms are comfortable and relaxing. The house is well equipped, the hot tub is in a perfect location with views across the valley. Highly recommended!

“What a stunning property.”

Thank you so much to the Jones family for your warm welcome and hospitality. This barn is truly amazing, absolutely stunning renovation.The pictures do not do it justice. We have just returned after celebrating a family birthday, we were a party of 9 and the set up and space of the property was perfect. All rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The cottage was well equipped through out, home from home. The views from the property made it more relaxing especially when enjoying the hot tub. We will definitely be returning, I can not recommend this property enough. Thank you again, Leah & family.

Colin April 2024

“Our stay at Plas Glan Yr Afon was to celebrate my recent retirement with our family.”

We had a very warm welcome on arrival and a tour of the house with extra information for eating and visiting etc. The cottage was absolutely beautiful and really clean. The hot tub was amazing. Shame the weather was not the best but it didn't stop us having an amazing week and enjoying the cottage to the full, the children loved it and enjoyed the table top football immensely. Thanks for a great stay at your beautiful cottage.

“Wow!! This place is amazing”

! Thank you so much to the kind owners who were on hand with anything we needed. Location is stunning and the property has been finished to such a high standard. All of the bedrooms are individual and interesting. Beds were so comfortable and it was lovely having so many en suites as we had 8 people staying. Very well equipped, we didn't leave the property for the whole time we stayed as everything we needed was there. Beautiful views, we will definitely book again!

Christopher December 2023

“The pictures don't do this place justice.”

It is absolutely beautiful in an incredible location. The way they've blended the 16th century farmhouse with the modern decorating is lovely. The hot tub by the flowing river in the winter months is a great touch. A really special place for our 10 person family to spend Christmas. Will definitely return.

- Christopher, December 2023
Sophia October 2023

“We received a lovely welcome from Eirian The house is beautiful and tastefully decorated.”

It was interesting hearing and seeing the development of the property. The views that surround you are incredible, and it’s very peaceful. The bedrooms are all equally beautiful, so you won’t need to fight over who gets which one. There is one bedroom up some steep stairs, so bear that in mind if you’re planning to use all 5 bedrooms and are less mobile Would definitely recommend & return. Thanks!

- Sophia, October 2023
Michael September 2023

“Thank you so much for renting to us this fabulous, well located, clean, comfortable, spacious and luxurious house.”

We had such a wonderful time with all the comforts that we could have wanted. The owner of the property was at hand should we have needed them and the warm welcome we received was really lovely. We combined families for our break and to sit at the large open-plan kitchen table having our meals together and playing cards was really something wonderful. We will be booking again - such a treat of a place, Loved it and didn't want to leave !!

- Sara-jane, August 2023
Barbara August 2023

“Beautiful location.”

Plenty of room to spread out in the farmhouse. Hot tub was great and enjoyed by all of us. Host was more than helpful and very welcoming. Plenty of things to do in the surrounding area. Definitely need a car though. Somewhere I would think of going back to.

- Barbara, August 2023

“A beautiful blend between old and new!”

We had the most fabulous holiday at Plas Glan yr Afon for my husband's 40th Birthday. The accommodation was so beautiful and had everything we needed. The owner Eirian was so accommodating and helpful with any questions we had during our stay and was great to recommend places to go. Our children absolutely loved the window in the floor that you could look through to the lower floor. Every detail in the refurbishment of this gorgeous old barn has been thought of, blending seamlessly the old and the new features. We would highly recommend to anyone.

“So good we have booked again.”

Susan May 2023

“We had the best time, we loved the design of all the rooms, each with its own individual style and it was the perfect size for 8 people.”

It was spacious and super comfortable with lots of seating options to relax, eat and chat, loved the fire place and hot tub with its beautiful views, all perfect for spending quality time with fried sand family. The showers and bath were all amazing and the kitchen had everything we needed. The host was very friendly and attentive. The Wi-Fi wasn’t that great but other than that it was fantastic vacation and wished we could have stayed longer but we will definitely be back.

- Susan, May 2023
Darryl April 2023

“Lovely cottage in a remote location, finished to a really high standard.”

My family enjoyed a great bank holiday weekend stay. For those considering working while on the break, the wi-fi is via Vodafone hotspot but got a steady 40mbps during our stay, so no issues there. The TV is also sat in a media wall, so no scope to plug in consoles should the children fancy playing video games. The stairs to 2 of the bedrooms are very step, so worth considering for those with mobility issues. Overall, a brilliant stay, our host was lovely and we would return.

- Darryl, April 2023
Simona April 2023

“It’s a beautiful newly refurbished and well equipped converted barn on a working farm, it is a good size and easily accommodated 2 families with enough space and two large living areas.”

It has lovely views. The owners are friendly and helpful. We spent Easter week here and had a great time, everything is within 20 minutes driving distance so you can enjoy some of the busier villages and attractions as well as the peace and quiet of the location and more remote walking areas. There are two pubs within short drive, one we walked to through fields. We would definitely consider coming back again.

“A wonderful stay in a wonderful cottage!”

Ten of us stayed in this fantastic, converted building in beautiful surroundings. It is spacious enough for ten, yet feels cosy and warm with lovely underfloor heating downstairs and a huge hearth with log burner in the main living space (there are more, big cosy sofas downstairs than in the current pictures). The whole space is beautifully decorated and comfortably furnished, with thoughtful nods to the building’s history. The place is well equipped and what's not to like about a hot tub overlooking the river and hills! A great location just a few miles from the A55, superb for exploring North Wales and with more local walks over public footpaths. We found this cottage at the last minute on Sykes and I cannot rate it highly enough; it’s a beautiful place to stay, either as a base for more exploring or a relaxing time with family and friends. Wonderful.

The property

With stunning countryside views, Plas Glan Yr Afon is a 16th century Grade II listed building set on a working farm in Llangernyw, North Wales.

With grounds home to cattle and with a wealth of characterful features including an inglenook fireplace, exposed stone and original timber touches reused within the renovation, this fabulous property seamlessly blends character and contemporary.

Step inside the grand open-plan living space, hang your coat on the old saddle hooks, and find everything you need for a celebration with loved ones; the sleek kitchen is fit with all the appliances the chef of could want to whip up tasty dinners, while the pew-seat dining table offers a space to catch up about your day.

From here, take the open-tread staircase up to the first-floor sitting room, fit with a media wall with a Smart TV and electric fire to snuggle up in front of for your evening entertainment.

When sleep calls, find five beautifully decorated bedrooms where you can catch your rest; the ‘pink room’ is home to a stunning reupholstered French bed and a showcased exposed original wall, while the ‘green room’ boasts a grand headboard, lovingly repurposed from an old stable, with an en-suite shower room complete with a unique stone sink.

Moving through the property, the family bathroom steals the show with a spacious freestanding bath and a walk-in shower to freshen up in, and steep stairs lead up to two more bedrooms, fit with vaulted ceilings and skylights.

The last bedroom is ideal for those with limited mobility and rests on the ground floor, with a gorgeous en-suite shower room, river views and zip and link beds, with easy access to the patio.

Spend your mornings, afternoons, or evenings in the garden, where you can dine al fresco or soak in the hot tub while admiring the vast countryside views.

With its lovely Welsh cottages and stunning landscape, Llangernyw is the ideal spot to escape the hustle and bustle of city life; those with a fishing rod licence may relax along the river Elwy on the property, catching the likes of brown trout and salmon.

You'll also have easy access to some fantastic destinations, like the majestic, Grade I listed Gwrych Castle, via scenic drives along the popular B-road route.

Visit Saint Digain, one of Wales's oldest churches, and don't forget to walk along the coastline cycling route.

Visit the mediaeval town of Conwy, which is home to some of the country's most stunning historical sites, including the towering Conwy Castle and the Smallest House In Great Britain.

If you're searching for outdoor activities, head to Snowdonia National Park for lagoon surfing at Adventure Parc Snowdonia, Tree Top Adventure, and Zip World, while the Carnedd Llewelyn and Glyder Fawr peaks are sure to please keen hikers.

The evocative Plas Mawr, a 16th-century Elizabethan townhouse, and the lovely Quay Street, with its pretty stores and eateries, are among highlights.

Visit the beach resort of Llandudno; Llandudno Pier is a lovely area to wander and take in the gorgeous views of the coast.

Plas Glan Yr Afon is a superb property in a picture-perfect area for your next break to North Wales.

Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1102383 together sleeping up to 20 guests.
