Glan Towyn Reviews

Yvonne
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 3night 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!
Delyth
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.

Our group of Friends are all in Luxury Travel and the House and dcor ... Our group of Friends are all in Luxury Travel and the House and dcor 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.
Absolutely beautiful property. Perfect. We had a fabulous holiday. Thank you.
Graham
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 kitchendiner 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!
Stuart
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.
Angela
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.
Claire
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 didnt explore much of the local area by car as we didnt 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 dont 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.
Fantastic property in a great location by the beach. Top quality specifications throughout.
Loretta
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 Ive given it a 810 as a recommendation, but for people who are used to them kinds of roads Id 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 kitchendining 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 pubplace 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!
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.
Excellence in location and facilities contributed to a memorable weekend celebrating a significant birthday.
5 stars... !!! our party of 12 aging from 1590 Loved it.. Fantastic location, fantastic facilities. The pictures on the website do not do the house justice.. Well worth every penny.. Thank you Kathryn
Heather
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.
Carole
We have stayed here twice now both times March and Ive only now realised I havent left feedback! The second time we stayed here we felt like we had come home. Its 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 weve received on arrival are always so appreciated and I was excited for it the second time round after not expecting it the first time! Its 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! Its a bit of local legend! And so deserves to be. I know we will be back. The attention to detail hasnt been matched anywhere else! Were 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 Im sure well be back many times before then!
Graham
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 viewsand a lovely pub only a five minute walk away. Beach even closer!
Nicola
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.
Louise
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 didnt 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.
Caroline
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
Sherree
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.
Cheryl
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, its 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 .
Charlotte
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, wellequipped 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.
Jonathan
A truly wonderful setting for a family gathering. Easily one of the best houses we have ever stayed at. My brother described it well its 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 well 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!
Lyndsey
This house is phenomenal. Such beautiful decor and so well equipped. Such a fantastic location. We will definitely be returning!
Graham
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 games 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.
