Open day overnight

We had an amazing overnight stay at the Glengower. The host was very kind after a very long trip and took time explain everything. The room was tidy and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and the server couldn't be more helpful. Would definitely recommend and hopefully return. The view from our room window was amazing.

Geraint, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great views and service

The food for dinner and breakfast were great. Parking behind the hotel was easy. The area around the hotel is starting to improve with not a lot of dining options. We had high tide and strong winds so the waves were crashing during the evening which was exciting. The room was spacious and the bathroom was good.
Roger, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely place with good food and an excellent location. We loved hearing the waves from our room at night. I would definitely stay again.
Maribeth, 2-night trip

Great stay in a fantastic hotel!

I had a lovely stay at The Glengower. It is situated right by the beach and the views are stunning. The room was very clean and comfortable. Cooked breakfast was amazing, the rest was adequate but minimal. The staff were friendly, attentive and efficient. I had an evening meal which I couldn’t fault. Will definitely stay again.

Beautiful hotel. Great staff, amazing service. Ocean view room gets warm in the full sun. Parking was a challenge on a bank holiday weekend. Would stay again.
Greg, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We ended up The Glengower because of an error with our original booking. It ended up being a much better option: the staff was lovely, the bar and restaurant was great, and the rooms were nice and comfortable for what we needed. And right by the water and shops around the corner. We would definitely stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Clean co

Lovely clean and comfortable hotel and room. Breakfast could be improved - as a vegan there was plant milk when asked but with a focus very much on a cooked breakfast, the continental breakfast options could have been improved - cereals were boxed and limited pastries. Plant based yogurt would also be a welcome addition.
