“Spotlessly clean & very comfortable.”

Only problem was getting off the drive, it was really difficult & tight given the wall opposite.

Duncan October 2024

“We found the property very clean and well presented.”

It was well equipped with good quality items all of which were kept to a very good standard. The outside area was great for our dogs and secure. Perhaps an outside light towards the upper end of the garden would be an advantage in the dark evenings to observe pets. Our only small criticism would be regarding the heating. The controls didn’t work and therefore it was constantly kicking in throughout the night, which wasn’t ideal. Overall we were very happy with the property and would happily recommend it to anyone who is looking for a holiday in the area.

- Duncan, October 2024

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. The heating controls have now been fixed. Property Owner

A July 2024

“Glan Awel is a fabulous, modern bungalow, clean, comfortable and cosy.”

Walks from the door step although Nefyn is approx 25 minutes walk there. Rear garden safe and secure for our Collie. Parking requires patience with larger vehicles though. Really glad to see that the Bryncynan is once again worth a visit. Would highly recommend the Glan Awel to friends and family.

Victoria July 2024

“A fantastic cottage in a great location.”

The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed. It felt like we were the first people to ever stay in it. The beds and pillows were very comfy and all bedding lovely. The garden was perfect and secure for the dog. There was a lovely card and welcome basket with treats, this was a lovely touch. We will return, thank you.

“A very comfortable, clean and warm cottage.”

Nice welcome pack. Just a shame weather wasn't as good as the cottage. Pleasant outdoor area but to wet to use, due to weather.

- Christopher Thomas, June 2024

Thank for your feedback. Property Owner

Lee May 2024

“Excellent relaxing location.”

Close to the beaches but far enough away for quiet. The property is well laid out, a good size. Garden was brilliant for the dogs and us. Really enjoyed our stay. Thanks.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Sandra May 2024

“The cottage/bungalow was beautiful.”

It was one of the best we have stayed in and we have been in cottages all over the UK for the past 48 years as a married couple. Very clean and well equipped. Our two dogs loved the garden.

- Sandra, May 2024

We very much appreciate your kind comments. Property Owner
Trevor May 2024

“Superbly equipped modern cottage.”

Very large kitchen/diner with lots of crockery, utensils, etc. Excellent shower. Two large comfortable sofas. Nice rural location with a lovely easy walk from the house up Mynydd Nefyn with its fabulous views across the peninsula. Plenty of power points in kitchen/diner but not many elsewhere. Only minor issues are a lack of any comfortable outdoor furniture and reversing out of the drive is a bit tricky but not enough for us to not give this place 10/10. Really enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the future.

- Trevor, May 2024

Thank you for your positive and constructive feedback. Property Owner

! The cottage is beautiful, spotlessly clean, warm, peaceful, extremely well equipped. We had such a great week, have come home totally relaxed and refreshed. Thank you to the owners for the obvious hard work you put into keeping the cottage in the excellent condition we found it in. Would definitely recommend and would love to return. Gail

A lovely picnic table where I enjoyed my morning coffee . Surrounded by fields with lambs ! I can't praise this cottage enough not to mention to be beautiful welcome pack and treats for the dog ! Thank you !

Barbara March 2024

“Glan Awel was one of the best holiday places we have stayed in.”

The bungalow was well equipped with everything needed for a self catering holiday. My escapee springer spaniel was unable to find a way out of the garden. Found the folder with instructions about recycling, washing machine etc very useful. When we arrived the palce was clean and welcoming, beds were comfortable. Lovely place for a peaceful chilled break with plenty of walks in the area.

Jonathon December 2023

“Absolutely amazing property that was well maintained and very clean.”

Beds were super comfortable. This was a 'last minute' booking as the property we were supposed to stay in was withdrawn by the owner so wasn't as much choice for our budget at the time. Property was a lot bigger and more spacious than the pictures show so that was a nice suprise as was the fact the garden was secure as in the pictures I got the impression it was an open or communal garden! Was a joy to cook Xmas dinner in the huge kitchen! The only thing I missed was a slow cooker and serving tongs, we had planned on bringing our own as we usually do but didn't have any space in the car! The property is in a lovely location 'out in the sticks' with fantastic sea views and is lovely and peaceful yet only a 5 min drive to Nefyn town which has a wonderful well stocked spar shop. Nearest bigger town with an Asda is only a 15 min drive and Caernarfon is only a 30 mins drive. Snowdonia is also a 30 - 45 min drive and there are also so many beaches within a half hour! We loved walking around Abersoch and we visited different beaches each day! The only negative would have been the shower as we struggled to get it hot and when we did get some hot water it only lasted 5 mins which was difficult for 5 of us but we managed. Thank you once again for letting us stay and we hope we left the property clean enough.

Jean October 2023

“Fantastic cottage, everything we could have possible required was catered for.”

Spotlessly clean and well maintained Beautiful view's from the garden. But not the same view as indicated on sykes website, It was also misleading as it gave the appearance of being on it own, not as this mattered neighbours were very welcoming. But when trying to locate property we were looking for a single cottage, hence we drove past twice My advice would be to ignore sat nav as its unable to locate property. Use owners directions. Location of property was ideally situated for us to visit and enjoy the Llyn peninsula We would return to glan awel and recommend it to family and friends.

Thank you for your kind feedback. Property Owner
Alison October 2023

“We loved the cottage.”

Interesting to read the history of the building. It was comfortable, clean and the kitchen was extremely well equipped. Great views from the dining area. Very quiet and peaceful. We walked into Nefyn several times, although harder coming back up the hill! We would love to return soon.

- Alison, October 2023

Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

Julie September 2023

“Cottage was lovely.”

But not walking distance to the town. Had to use the car all the time. Shame because beautiful cottage. Needs recliner chairs for garden to relax. Very strong smell of diesel in the garden. Dog was poorly one night not sure if it was due the the diesel smell or not. Would book nefyn again but not this property due to location. Road very narrow and dangerous and too far to walk. Many thanks julie

- Julie, September 2023

We're very pleased you liked the cottage and thank you for the scoring. We'll look into the diesel smell. Thank you for your comments. Property Owner

“We enjoyed a short stay at Glan Awel, based in a great location to explore the Llŷn peninsula and the beautiful area of Nefyn.”

The cottage is well presented, comfortable, well-equipped, clean and in quiet surroundings. The garden is fully enclosed and was safe for our dog to explore, a great pet friendly place!
