You’ll find plenty of secluded bygone charm mixed with stylish contemporary living when you come to stay at Glandŵr Tresaith. Make this 200 year-old Welsh country house yours, ideal for a holiday or an extended break with family and friends. Oozing with Georgian grace, Glandŵr sits in 5 acres of woodland and gardens, just a stone’s throw from Tresaith’s glorious sandy beach and the national coastal path hugging Ceredigion’s stunning heritage coast. Coupled with inland footpaths and cycle trails which can take you to undiscovered places, Glandŵr is an unrivalled location for your visit to west Wales.
Built at the height of the Georgian Regency period in 1809, Glandŵr is a Grade II listed country house, offering spacious five-star accommodation for up to 12 persons.

Staying here
You’re bound to unwind completely once you walk in through Glandŵr’s front door. Beyond our lawns you’ll see the Irish Sea, and you can practically roll out of bed into the charming wooded valley of the Afon Saith and it's babbling brook streaming to its confluence with the sea over a magnificent clifftop waterfall.
Back indoors we have three double bedrooms with either en suite or private bathrooms, plus a further double bedroom which shares a shower room with our two twin bedrooms. Our master bedroom boasts an enormous, and extremely comfortable, superking four-poster bed – we’re sure there’ll be fierce competition as to who gets to sleep here! We have three amazing contemporary bathrooms plus a stunning shower room upstairs – and if you're someone who likes to soak in a relaxing bath whilst gazing up at the stars in our pitch-black night sky, you can do so here… our bathrooms all have spectacular glass atrium skylights.
Downstairs, via a beautiful spiral staircase, topped with a striking natural-light lantern which streams daylight into the middle of the house, you’ll find our 30-foot – 9 metre long – kitchen and dining area. Surrounded by floor to ceiling windows with views of the surrounding countryside, you’ll have plenty of space to cook, entertain and dine with your friends and family.
There are three lounges at Glandŵr. Our main sitting room is adjacent to the kitchen and is dominated by an impressive fireplace with its wood-burning stove (we’ll provide you with a supply of logs to get your fire going). Our Red Room lounges lead on from one to another – the first, smaller, sitting room is a cozy space with a wood burner which leads through an archway into a vast comfortable lounge dominated by a magnificent period mirror.
We could have given you a fourth lounge to enjoy, but instead we’ve made it into a games room, equipped with pool table, table football, cards, and board games. You’ll also find a shower room downstairs, ideal for getting rid of sand or mud following a day on the beach or exploring.
We have a large television in the main sitting room, served by a Sky Freesat box and a DVD player – feel free to bring your own Sky viewing card to use during your stay. We provide you with a stock of DVDs for all tastes. A high chair and travel cot are also available for youngsters.
Outside we have acres of lawns and woodland for you to enjoy, along with a barbeque, plenty of parking space, and room to keep your bikes.

Accessibility statement
Glandŵr is a listed Georgian house, dating from 1809. Unfortunately this means access to and within the house may be restricted to some visitors, particularly visitors with reduced mobility.
1. Entrance: two curved narrow steps lead up to the front entrance door.
2. All downstairs rooms at Glandŵr are on the same level, except for a slight incline into the large Red Room, and a step down to the kitchen.
3. All bedrooms at Glandŵr are on the first floor. These can only be accessed via a curved staircase with original handrail which is not suited to support weight. There is no lift.
4. Three steps descend from the en suite bedrooms down to their respective bathrooms. Similarly, three steps descend from the top to the bottom half of the family bathroom. There are no handrails.
5. Fire escape routes from the bedrooms are restricted, and lead on to open ground on a bank.
6. Our doors and passageways vary in width; some may not be accessible for wheelchair users.
Events and celebrations
Glandŵr is the perfect location for smaller events and celebrations – whether it’s a big birthday get together, family reunion, special anniversary or even an intimate wedding reception – we can make sure that all of the details are taken care of.
For self-catering visitors, we can offer a bespoke chef service for that special dinner party. We’ll take away all the worries and work of creating a dinner party exactly how you want it to be. We’ll discuss in advance the menu with you, arrange a chef, organise the catering, food and drink, prepare the dining room and service, and make sure everything is cleared away at the end, so you need do nothing but relax and enjoy. Or you may just want a couple of ‘main’ meals prepared for you during your stay, to help you kick back and relax.
We can provide the same service for non-residents when the house isn’t occupied by guests – for family get-togethers, dinners for clubs and organisations, Christmas and birthday celebrations, or funeral teas.
The kitchen-diner can easily seat up to 16 people, the Red Room up to 20 for a sit-down menu. The house is suitable for hosting around 40 people for buffet events.
Call or email us to discuss your requirements. Glandŵr has the top-scoring Food Hygiene Rating of 5.
