  We stayed at Glanduad Fawer over New Year, it was a return visit having had a short stay the previous summer.

  Yes, we liked it that much we went back there to see in the New Year. The house is in a secluded and sheltered spot down a long private drive. The surrounding land is very peaceful with a stream, mature trees and a large green open space. The property has a massive patio perfect for outdoor living - weather permitting. The house has been completely renovated to a very high standard. It has a large paneled dining room perfect for evening get togethers and a well proportioned living room with comfy sofas and a wood burner in a massive inglenook - which makes things super cosy in the winter. The bedrooms are lovely tranquil spaces, some with ensuites. I found the beds and bedding to be very comfy. Glanduad Fawer is only 10-15 minutes from Cardigan. As a big group we ordered a Click & Collect at the Tesco's for when we arrived - very convenient. There is some dramatic coastal walking and expansive sandy beaches a short drive away. There is also an Iron age village a short walk from the house. Which also has electric car charging points. What makes a stay special is often the host. Martin is a brilliant host whom has an absolute passion for the property and is incredibly welcoming. He absolutely goes above and beyond. If we don't ever go back, there are lots of places to visit in the world, we will always have very fond memories of our time at Glanduad Fawer. Genuinely a 5* review.

  Sykes misled us as it clearly states on the listing that it is in Broadhaven when it's actually miles from Broadhaven.

  We made the booking on that basis so we were immediately disappointed with the location as we'd visited the area 3 yeaes ago and wanted to return there and not stay at Hasguard Cross. The shop didn't actually stock anything so it is pointless to promote a shop nearby as the nearest shop is miles away in Broadhaven. The house itself was nice, needed a little TLC in places but it was spotlessly clean apart from flies under the beds in the ground floor bedroom. It is classed as sleeping 8 which it does comfortably but there is not room for 8 to watch TV on the sofas. We were cold in the house and had no way of drying clothes or towels. I think there should have been information there in regards to the heating as we didn't get a response from emails sent requesting help with this from the owner or Sykes but apparently, as we found out on the last day, the boiler was in the garage next door and had to be turned on there. We were asked to complete a disclaimer for the hot tub which we did and it said the hot tub would be checked for the correct chemical balance numerous times during our stay but this was not checked for the whole week we were there. I think the property would benefit from a washing line and also ice cube trays. The little bar in the caravan park next door is lovely and serves delicious food a few nights each week, has a pool table too.

  A Home Away from Home Our recent stay at Glanduad fawr was nothing short of idyllic.

  Nestled amidst breathtaking Welsh countryside, this charming house offered the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The interior was beautifully decorated with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it a joy to prepare meals. The living room provided a comfortable space to relax and unwind, with the log burner being a real treat. The dining room was beautiful , with original 17th century panels, and a huge table perfect for 12, or even for playing Dungeons and dragons! The bedrooms were peaceful and inviting, and the contemporary en-suites stunning, with all mod cons. We particularly loved the cottage's proximity to Castell Henllys, and the lovely little village of Newport. Whether we were exploring the quaint villages, hiking through the picturesque countryside, breathtaking coastline, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet, there was always something to do. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. Their attention to detail was evident throughout our visit. We would highly recommend Glanduad fawr to anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. It's the ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with nature. We will definitely book again for our next family get-together.

  Wow what an amazing place.

  The house has been sympathetically restored retaining original character along with all the modern conveniences that modern living require. The bedrooms are spacious with lovely quality bedding & furniture. The bathrooms are lovely - luxury hotel style with character reutilisation of existing features from the former dairy. The towels especially are of excellent quality, and lovely to have bath sheets not just towels. The kitchen provides everything you could need, with the breakfast room providing additional area for casual dining. The dining room is magnificent! The panelled walls are wonderful with surprises in the hidden cupboards (providing more crockery, glasses and the hosts have even through of a cocktail shaker!) The living room is a lovely place to gather , socialise and relax. The grounds are breathtaking and the ambience is so relaxing - the lack of light pollution means that you have lovely clear skies at night, perfect for those who like to look out for the auroras we’ve been blessed with lately! Finally the host Martin is wonderful - you can tell he has put his heart and soul into this project. He is welcoming, friendly and informative of the local area. We have rented Lots of houses over the years and this is definitely one of the best. Will definitely look to return.

  I don’t know how else to contact you so am writing on the feedback form.

  We have stayed in many welsh cottages in the last few years and this is by far the worst….. despite the ridiculously late check in (due to extra cleaning for covid) the place was not clean. The table was dirty and sticky, and the bathrooms had been wiped at best. The worst however was that the middle bedroom had gentleman’s clothes left in the drawers and tablets in another drawer. The tablets were found by my 5 year old daughter!!!!!! Luckily she was sensible enough to bring them to me and not eat them as sweets otherwise this could have been a very different email……. This is shocking On top of this the property is so sparse - no welcome basket, no cleaning products not even any washing up liquid. We have never stayed anywhere so basic in terms of what is provided. The property is also in need of redecorating and some tlc as it is very tired……. Such a shame as the property and its location are fantastic, but the lack of cleanliness and lack of supplies were a serious letdown. Based on how much we paid for this property (and the fact that we lost over half a days holiday due to your extreme check in and check out times) this was very disappointing. We will be checking out on Saturday morning as requested but sadly would not stay with your company again based on this experience.
