About this property

With off-road parking and an enclosed garden, 21 Heol Gylfinir, resting on the island of Barry, is an ideal base for a family or group of friends looking to explore South Glamorgan and the coast and countryside of South Wales. Make yourself at home in this lovely property, finding a well-fitted kitchen housing a great selection of amenities, so guests can cook a heart-warming meal together, which can be enjoyed in the living/dining room. Here you will be able to put your feet up and indulge in a movie night beside the warm glow of the electric fire or read in the conservatory, a space filled with natural light. As the evening wears on, freshen up after a day spent at the beach in the family bathroom before cosying down in one of the three well-presented bedrooms, including a double with an en-suite shower room and two singles. Outside a delightful decking area encourages you to dine alfresco, making the most of the sunshine and salty air. Barry is a fantastic island located in South Wales, teeming with loads to do just a short walk from the property. The town houses several great eateries, pubs, bars and convenience stores, so why not dine out before stocking up on essentials? There are two lovely beaches to be enjoyed, Barry Island Beach and Jackson’s Bay, and you can try out water sports at Barry Community Water Activity Centre, plus there are fascinating boat trips available to nearby islands and along the coast. Barry houses the ruins of Barry Castle, Knap Gardens, a war museum and Barry Island Pleasure Park, giving guests no shortage of activities to enjoy. Walks along the coast are aplenty, and the bustling city of Cardiff is also within easy reach, brimming with loads of museums, Cardiff City Stadium and Cardiff Castle. From here you can visit the impressive Caerphilly Castle, Bannau Brycheiniog National Park where there is a plethora of walks through the breathtaking scenery and the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which houses a golf course, Goodrich Castle, Wye Valley Butterfly Zoo and the ruins of Tintern Abbey. Enjoy all of this and so much more with a stay at the lovely 21 Heol Gylfinir.

Barry, the largest town in Wales, lies in the Vale of Glamorgan between Sully and Rhoose. Well-positioned to easily access the golden seaside resort and the infamous Welsh Coast Path, tourists can amble along a stretch of footpath which spans 870 miles across the coastline. It is also well-known for being one of the notable filming locations of the popular TV show Gavin and Stacey and offers everything from fantastic green spaces to historic attractions and glorious seaside. As well as an array of shops, pubs, and eateries to choose from, the town boasts oodles of history at the Barry War Museum and the funfair, once a reminder of its humble beginnings as a popular resort for miners and industrial workers, it has now flourished into a holiday empire. From Barry, visit the bustling city of Cardiff, where tourists can enjoy an abundance of shops, theatres, and bars as well as the magnificent Cardiff Castle and Cardiff Bay, or take a day trip to Newport and Bridgend, which reside only a short car journey away.

    Lovely house, well laid out, exceptionally well equipped and easy to find everything. Nice comfortable beds. Good location, short walk to seafront, near station for trains to Cardiff and close to Barry shopping centre. We would certainly recommend it. Only downside, a shower screen/curtain needed in bathroom and faulty electric socket in middle bedroom.

    The property could do with a little extras the coffee table has the to on so we’re for your cups glass to be put on only the floor.no clock any were so relia on your phone for the time also needs a lamp as you have to use the main light at night . No information sheet how things workor local information . Nice kitchen but needs a bread bin. No wast information I notice the the binds were being empty so put them out .also tea towels had to go and buy some.these are small things that would make a difference all in all lovely house great location would recommend it to anyone

  • Tina

    Sad to find mouldy food in the kitchen cupboards left by previous guests. Sad to find greasy cookware in the kitchen, clearly not cleaned properly by previous guests, and not checked by whoever manages the property. The gardens are overall quite scruffy, and not inviting. The conservatory roof leaks when it rains, and the bath tap in the main bathroom is prone to coming off. I think the description that there is parking for 2 cars is over ambitious
