  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.

  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.

  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!

  We had the most fantastic stay here at Granar.

  The house itself exceeding our expectations-it was very high spec and well thought out, a perfect place to be with family/friends. It was very quiet and peaceful and not too far from local attractions etc…the only thing to be aware of when booking is that you can’t walk out anywhere so you do have to drive everywhere. Also, I would suggest to do your research about pubs/restaurants nearby as we struggled with this (not sure if it was covid related or just not a lot around that would let you book) The only other thing that disappointed us was that we had planned our last afternoon to be at the house, in the hot tub and upon our return we found that it had been emptied therefore it was cold. We have never been anywhere before that has done this so we were a little shocked! It would have been good to know this happened before. However, as we have said before everything else was fantastic so definitely don’t be put off by the only negative. The scenery is also incredible and we would 100% recommend this property.

  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!
