Reviews

We had a lovely stay at Granar Gyndwyn cottage, it's lovely & cosy and great good nights sleep too. we appreciated the welcome pack, especially the milk to make a cuppa tea after our long car journey.. (Thankyou also to Dylan (owner) on offering to drive us to either one of the two reasturants for our 1st nights tea, (valentine's night) which we did'nt take him up on as they were a good few miles and more away.. We drove & found one hotel & reasturant ourselves.. There are some amazing views looking out from the cottage and the stream running along side, so peaceful.. Would recommend a stay here...

Miss S,

We had a lovely stay here and lots to do with not too much driving. Lovely welcome pack.

Mrs C,

Very nice and clean property. Right next to a stream. Very quite location, right in the middle of mountains and fields. Host is very kind, helpful and gentle person. I would book it again if I'm going in that area. Highly recommended.
