Guests say
Glan Dwr Bach is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its stunning views, comfortable furnishings, and high-standard cleanliness. Guests appreciate the modern kitchen, luxurious bathrooms, and thoughtful touches such as welcome gifts. While some mention minor maintenance issues and the proximity to a busy road, the overall sentiment is one of satisfaction and a desire to return.
The majority of guests found the cottage to be very clean and comfortable. A few reviews mentioned issues with cleanliness, such as cobwebs and a musty vacuum cleaner smell, but these seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
The location is highly praised for its spectacular views and convenience for exploring Anglesey and Snowdonia. Some guests noted the proximity to a busy road, but this did not significantly detract from the overall positive reception of the location.
Guests consistently mention the comfort of the beds and the cosy atmosphere of the cottage. There are a few remarks about uncomfortable sofas and a need for modernisation, but these are balanced by the numerous positive comments about the property's comfort.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the modern kitchen and bathrooms. Some guests encountered issues with appliances and suggested improvements, indicating room for enhancement in maintenance and facilities.
While many guests express gratitude for the welcome gifts, such as Prosecco and cake, there is not enough information to determine if these are consistent offerings or if they have impacted the overall experience to a significant degree. Therefore, a score cannot be provided.

It's just beautiful. You couldn't get a better property to enjoy the stunning views of the Menai Straits. Having just returned from a weeks stay, can honestly stay we all didn't want to leave. The property is in a fantastic location for visiting Menai Bridge and Beaumaris and just a short walk to the Gazelle Pub. You can easily drive round Anglesey and visit the amazing sights. The owners of the property are very welcoming and friendly, thank you for the welcome treats were very much appreciated. We would all stay again in this property. Thank you and can't wait to return to our happy place â¤ï¸

Interior lovely etc couldnt fault . On advertising it said ( PETS YES) on payment it said one pet only, which caused problems at short notice. Also got the place coz out was all on one level and when we paid a few weeks later somebody put about outside area being down steps etc at side of property. Then sykes changed their description to ( outside area at side etc , no mention before) so although inside was lovely the outside area too my 97 yet old dad and my husband were inaccessible. Also we had to make arrangement for the other dog . So I woukdnt go back personally as it wasn't described correctly. If you don't have pets or elderly family it's a beautiful place .

However furnishings were grubby and stained, carpets were dirty and stained. Kitchen cupboards had sticky finger prints all over them and draw fronts had crumbs in the recesses also the microwave was dirty inside from previous use. The Fan in wet room wasn't working which left everything damp, wet and slippery for most of the day. Misleading listing of property no garden as stated just a small patio area that can only be accessed from the front of the property next to the busy main road. Fishing was also mention in the listing but this was not possible due to no access to the main garden or sea front. This property was listed as a cottage but is in fact a flat on the top floor of a 3 storey building with the owners occupying the lower floors and Garden with access to shore.
