    Quiet position but only a few steps from the street, no seagull noise ! useful decked area to sit and relax on.. we look forward to returning next year..

  • "Superbly clean, fabulous facilities, wonderfully comfy."

    Perfect town centre position but perfectly calm and quiet with it. The welcome pack of goodies and the car park pass is a perfect illustration to the thought the owners have put in to ensure our stay was as good as it could be.

  • "We really loved the cottage!"

    So cute and great use of space! The bed on a mezzanine was a bit hot though. Just one other thing, it's great that we could take our dog, but unfortunately their was a gate on the terrace with a big space at the bottom for him to get through! I think this needs to be addressed if the owner allows dogs. On the whole we loved staying in the cottage!

  • "A great and comfortable cottage."

    Great location and really helpful to have the parking permit. A great touch in providing a welcome pack, welcome card and a pre paid post card. The only other feedback we would offer is that a toaster would be really handy. Other than that the cottage is a real gem. Thanks again Tess for a great stay at your beautiful cottage

    Hi Ellen, Thank you for taking the time to review, happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. I’m so sorry you were without the toaster. It’s kept with the microwave and iron under the breakfast bar. As your the second person to mention it I think I’ll just leave it out on the bench from now on, I’m a clutter free person, haha. Thank you again for your review online and in the book, lovely to read :) Property Owner

    The location just off of the high street was perfectly situated for it to be quiet and private enough rest and relax, but still with quick and easy access to the town. The inside and outside is well thought out and after a days exploring, we enjoyed returning to the cottage to unwind and settle in for the evening. We would highly recommend and hope to return in the future.

    Cozy and comfortable bed, lovely reclining two seater sofa and an amazing shower. The kitchen was well stocked and the location was perfect, central to Barmouth yet nicely tucked away and quiet when sat out on the terrace (apart from the seagulls ofcourse!) and so well maintained inside. We will be recommending it to family and friends and will be booking it again should we return to Barmouth in the future

    Everything you could need, built to a good standard and all the equipment is decent quality. The radio didn’t work but we could use the tv or phones and the wifi was excellent. It’s quiet and tucked away but also just off the high street so you have access to all that Barmouth has to offer easily. I’m already planning my next stay.

    Hi Leila, thank you for taking the time to review, and the 5 stars, much appreciated!

  • "Really quirky, well presented and well equipped cottage, with style and comfort."

    It's not for those who are not very mobile and we had fun accessing the bed, which was extremely comfortable. If you want town centre, this is this place, but you wouldn't know it as it felt, and was, very quiet. Access to the cottage was a little challenging but all part of the experience. The description and notes were very accurate. We had a lovely long weekend doing things we like to do: walking, challenging climbs (Cadar Idris!), watching nature, paddling, boat trips, eating and enjoying wonderful views.

    It feels very spacious, although headroom is limited in the sleeping platform! The lighting and power points are fantastic. The outdoor space is just right. The location is perfect, very near the beach and restaurants, yet very quiet as it is set back. The parking permit was very welcome, as was the lovely card and goodies. The property was very clean too. We had a fantastic stay, helped by perfect weather.

    The downside, futon cushion as bed, very uncomfortable and not fit for purpose, three nights no sleep. Lack of bedding so also cold, parking for car is five mins walk away, would be a concern in busy months. Poor customer service from Sykes not interested in my complaint referred to it as feedback.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Glan Meon is a much loved cottage and the Owner who, as you know, lives close by, would have been happy to rectify any issue had you raised it with her during your stay. It is of paramount importance to her that guests have an enjoyable stay and has taken your feedback on board and replaced the mattress. Property Owner
