Glanaber Bach

Reviews

The property is poorly appointed, cheaply furnished making it uncomfortable. The view from the main window was however wonderful but this did not make up for the fact that the place is directly on top of the main road into the town and consequently subjected to a lot of road noise. The kitchen was adequate with just sufficient crockery etc. We were unable to get sufficient hot water to have a bath, but the shower was functional. Bed linen was very worn and 'bobbly'. We were unable to use the pillows provided and went out to buy ourselves alternatives. Outside the property is not well kept in any way, the 'patio' is uneven, full of weeds and very sad looking. At the rear the place is tatty and has not been cared for. I feel that Original Cottages need to be rather more discerning about which properties they allow on their listings.

Glanaber Bach is in an excellent location for walking into the village and to the beach, there was some road noise as you are right on the road and it was a bit off putting having everyone looking over when we sat on the front patio as its at at the same level as the road but the view is well worth it so one offsets the other. The property is reasonably well equipped however there is nowhere to store food, no empty cupboards or shelves in the kitchen so if you like to cook this probably isn't the property for you. It didn't spoil our holiday as we ate out every day but its worth being aware of this. Also although four of us managed ok with the facilities an extra downstairs toilet would be an amazing addition and make a huge difference to the house. However the cottage is very quaint and I think I would stay again, if only for the views and location.

Overall property was lovely with amazing views, but needs bit of TLC and rubbish from outside spaces removing

The cottage was in a fantastic location and very clean. Will definitely stay again in the future. Views was amazing and very short walk to many restaurants and bars. I went for a nice break with the children and we all loved the stay there. Definitely will say it has been our best holiday adventure. The only thing I would suggest is up to date tv so you can put Netflix on ect as freeview box is so outdated now and it was a nightmare to set up

The facilities are excellent. No complaints about any part of the facilities especially downstairs. Unfortunately upstairs on the first day my husband sat on the bed and fell through. The slats needed straightening. I’m Monday the same thing happened to me . On closer inspection the slats weren’t linked together. On Wednesday night a slat fell out and a metal part detached itself from the bed. We felt the bed was unsafe to sleep in , we are 76 and 77, and with sadness decided to return home. When we arrived the owner was putting in a new fire. He didn’t know we were expected. A minor problem was there was no brush to go with the dustpan. The bed could have happened at any time. This does not mean that we were not impressed by the equipment provided.
