It’s been a day since we checked out and we miss having conversations with him. The property was excellently maintained and the breakfast was to die for. We were vegetarian and he accomodated our requests. Additionally, he cooked us a different breakfast daily, which was a pleasant surprise. We will definitely come back again!

Little touches, like homemade cakes (especially the Welsh cakes, which I loved :D) and individually prepared breakfasts (full traditional and vegetarian options) with local ingredients, made our stay extra special. Sean also gives excellent advice on what to do in the region. It was our first time in Wales, and we absolutely loved it. The B&B is perfectly located: just a 10-minute walk from the charming town of Betws-y-Coed, and only 20 minutes by car from the hikes around Snowdon and the Glyders. Nothing, I wish we could have stayed longer to explore the region!

Nothing was too much trouble, The accommodation was spotless, comfortable room with lovely views plus en-suite, hot drink facilities, drinking water and sweet treats too.

Tolle Zimmer, das Haus im alten Englischem Stil machte viel her.
Für uns grandios, dafür ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ .. fällt uns nix ein.
- Julia (10/5): Best Guest House i have stayed in! - If i could give double stars i would! Sean made us feel very welcome and he has my kind of humor so we really loved his company.

- Fiona (8/5): - Sean was the most amazing host. He really made our stay one of the best on our 6-day roadtrip. He is a true host, from remembering our names and small details, to ensuring that the breakfast was delicious and locally sourced. We won't forget our stay here for a long time! If you stay in the room with twin beds, bear in mind that the toilet is quite loud, making it preferable not to flush in the night, sadly. I wouldn't hestitate to come back but to stay in another room.

From the moment we arrived, Sean made us feel incredibly welcome, warm, genuine hospitality that immediately put us at ease. The house was spotless clean and clearly well cared for. Everything about the space felt calm and comfortable, like the kind of place where you can finally exhale.
Tranquil? Check.
Surrounded by nature? Absolutely.
It’s the perfect setting to slow down, disconnect, and recharge. Whether you're sipping coffee with a view or just enjoying the quiet, there's a real sense of peace here.
Would I recommend it? Without hesitation. And honestly, we are already looking for excuses to go back.
Thank you once again Sean!

- Anette (10/5): Highlight of our trip to the UK - Me and my husband loved everything about Glyntwrog House! The location is great - we got to hike every day and saw amazing gorges, waterfalls and swam in wild lakes! The room was really cosy and got everything we would have wished for. The breakfast was one of the best I have ever had anywhere while traveling! But the best thing was Sean, our host! He is the warmest and most caring host I have met! He really helped us with everything, he always asked about our day and gave really good ideas of what to see and do next! He even gave me binoculars to take with on a trip to the lake! Really recommend this place to everyone! Wish I could go back now! Cannot think of anything!
- Ann (10/5): - Gracious host and fantastic breakfast!
- Wade (9/5): Best place in Wales to stay - The hospitality, service, attention to detail, and hosting have been by far the best we've had anywhere. I can't recommend Sean and Glyntwrog enough.

Nothing...

The cooked breakfast was delicious and I don't think I have ever had better as we sat looking at the view and wildlife. We would definitely stay there again. Nothing, it was great!
