We had a fantastic stay at Glyn-Y-Coed with Julie being an amazing host who couldn't do more to make our stay comfortable. We took her advice and booked our evening meals in advance so when we arrived all we had to do was enjoy ourselves. The room we stayed in was newly decorated and very smart and comfortable. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and is to be recommended. We had a great time and Julie gave us information on places to visit so we kept ourselves busy apart from a day sitting on the beach in the sunshine eating ice cream. Lovely! We would definitely recommend this hotel and will be coming back in the future.

Spotlessly clean. Julie and her team work like a well oiled clock to provide excellent accommodation in the teeth of a difficult pandemic. Our stay from 12th September to 21st September was really enjoyable in a superb Seaview Room with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Superbly cooked breakfasts set us up for the day. We will return to this b and b I am sure. hxr

We had a great stay. The rooms were very clean and pleasant to stay in. The view outside was incredible, eating fish and chips on the patio was one of our favourite experiences. The host was also very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic location, great service and facilities. We stayed for five nights during early August 2020, just as the country was coming out of lockdown. Our host Julie and her team were utterly professional and diligent - not just in the necessary post lockdown activities but also in the routine aspects of running a healthy guesthouse. Our rooms (we had a double and a twin for our two children) were perfectly furnished with everything needed and great wifi. Cleanliness was perfect, breakfast was excellent. Criccieth itself was lovely, and the castle and coastal views - well, one can never tire of looking at them. All in all a brilliant stay and we will certainly return.
