House holiday rentals in Barry Island

The place was beautiful and the hosts were very responsive. The cinema room was a hit with us all - watching Lord of the Rings from a hot tub was amazing! The rooms were all comfortable, the animals were all gorgeous and the fairy garden was adorable. It felt like a real hideaway, and we'd be delighted to visit again. Thank you ever so much!!

I cannot overstate how amazing this place is. I was looking for an escape into the woods and it was exactly what I wanted. The setting of the cottage is stunning, right on the river and surrounded by trees. It feels remote, even though it's only a short walk into the village. The welcome was really friendly, you can tell that the owners are very active in their community and have put together loads of local info. I particularly liked the map of the community forrest which made me feel confident enough to explore walks by myself. The cottage itself is beautifully kept, with everything that you need, and then some. I didn't want to leave.

Lovely place to stay, right by the beach which was perfect for us! Nice sized rooms and beds and Jess was a lovely host! Check in and out instructions were clear and easy to follow!

Was a great place to stay when we visited the Urdd Eisteddfod which was held in Margam Park this year. The house was very clean and Yan was very easy to get in touch with if we required anything. We have 4 young children, who loved the added bonus of the toys that were in the house. Everything you would need for a short stay was in the house. Thank you 😊

Wonderful place and fantastic hosts which made everyone feel so welcome and were brilliant at communicating with us. Location is perfect to walk to the pubs in Cowbridge then is perfect for a quiet nights sleep just away from the main high street. We will certainly be back! Thanks so much :)

We had an amazing stay. The place was beautiful and the amenities were awesome! Love the sauna! Great host as well!

I stayed here with 7 others for a chilled, relaxed night away from home and that’s what it proved to be! The heated pool was well used and an awesome feature in the cosy extension. Plenty of space to sleep everyone and had everything you needed. I stayed here with friends but I feel like it would also be perfect for a get away with the kids too. One thing that wasn’t advertised greatly was the view you get to experience in the morning, it’s stunning. Thanks for having us and helping us out with some fresh sausages and bacon in the morning!

Brilliant stay for my mothers 60th. House was very spacious and brilliant location. Check in very easy and straight forward. We had an issue with the upstairs water pressure but the maintenance man came out the following morning to look at it. Would definitely come back. We very much loved our stay.

Perfectly placed to walk with my husband who uses a mobility scooter and has dementia. Flat easy access and met all our needs. Wonderful for me to walk our dog too. Can’t fault it really and it felt like staying in a friend’s home. Any questions were answered immediately. Thank you Lee.

Perfect location, beautiful accommodation and responsive host. Would absolutely recommend and definitely stay again

We had a fabulous time. The house was magnificent. Plenty of room and beautifully decorated. Our host, Anna, was very helpful sending me a comprehensive list of things to do, where to eat etc. Even suggesting things to do with my 6 year old grandson. We will definitely be going back. Thanks Anna.

We had a lovely stay here and hope to come back again next year. The location is perfect, you can easily walk over to the island or further around the coast and have Asda just on the doorstep. You're also only a short drive from a whole lot of other attractions and walks, or visiting Cardiff. The train station is also just around the corner if you don't want to drive! The house itself is well equipped and feels comfortable for a family stay. They provided a stair gate and other equipment for our toddler which was a massive help. You are next to a road, but the back bedroom is nice and quiet and you don't really hear much with the windows shut at the front. The garden is a nice size and we enjoyed sitting out there of an evening. We would recommend this home to anyone visiting the area.

We enjoyed our stay in Sandra's house. It's a lovely house, recently refurbished throughout, with attractive decor, well-equipped kitchen and lovely modern bathrooms. The beds and pillows were all very clean and comfortable (absolutely no lumpy bits, which we've often encountered in other houses we've stayed in!) and there is a nice outdoor seating area. The only downside we found was the rather small living room/seating area, which wasn't quite large enough for us all (3 adults and 2 children) to sit in comfortably at the same time.

Four adults and one dog stayed here to go and visit the Gavin & Stacey sites. Great access to all the places we wanted to visit. Premises has lovely sea views and is located behind electronic gates. Very quiet location will all the amenities and space we needed and more. Host was contactable if needed and the house has loads of information in to enhance the stay. A great place to say, well located, peaceful and well kitted out. Enjoyed our time here and for the price - great value

I had a fantastic stay! The place was spotless and exceptionally well-maintained. Everything I needed was included — from kitchen essentials to extra linens — making it incredibly convenient, especially for a longer stay. The parking was also amazing — easy, accessible, and stress-free. It truly felt like a home away from home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-equipped space. Would definitely stay here again!

Gareth is a great host, friendly and helpful. The place was amazing, close to everything you’ll need and see! Would definitely recommend Gareth’s place and I would stay again.

Beautiful, quirky cottage in a great spot with lovely garden and stream. We had an amazing 3 night stay with 11yr old, 8yr old and our dog in this lovely cottage. Great walks from the door, an easy walk to the pub and lovely beaches a bit further afield. It's so peaceful and surpassed expectations, shame kids had to go back to school as we would have loved to stay longer. Hosts are super responsive and really helpful. Worth noting there are a lot of ticks on the moor so worth bringing spray and tick removers. Thanks and we hope to come back.

Very pleasant place fitted out sensitively to an old style. Bedrooms and shower were excellent. Close to pubs and shops but far enough away they are not a bother. Parking is on the road where you can find it but we didn't have any problems.

Our family of ten included three generations and we all enjoyed a wonderful week. The house and garden were beautiful and the views stunning. Our four grandchildren enjoyed the top floor games room as well as outdoor water activities. We all enjoyed good walks from our doorstep. We hope to return to return for another week.

Georges house is a lovely bright and airy space with everything you need. The location is perfect - so close to lovely cafes, restaurants and shops. Lynton is a beautiful little town. George sent lots of helpful information re access and parking before our arrival and it was really easy to find the house and car parking close by.

The photos do not do the Drydock Cottage justice - it is even more beautiful than it looks in the photos and also a lot more spacious. The attention to detail and every element of the design that has gone into the conversion of this building is second to none. The location is also absolutely perfect - so peaceful, tucked away in gorgeous grounds with a view straight out onto the canal and across over the valley to the mountains beyond. I could have sat and watched the world go by, including the families of ducks, all day. The home made goodies were very welcoming and I loved every minute of my stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place for people looking to escape to somewhere unique and peaceful.

Couldn’t have been happier, lovely house, clean, comfy, great location just a short walk to station, which is 1 stop away from Cardiff Central. Nicole was so friendly and helpful, will 100% return

The annex is very convenient. We were 2 couples, and had enough space (one double room + 1 bed in the living room, as mentioned). On arriving, everything was set ready. The instructions were very clear. Sasha was very thoughtful and gave us recommandations for our trip, very helpful. We were offered many snacks in a mini fridge, which we enjoyed ! The house is at Sullly, accessible from Cardiff by bus, although we founded it more convenient to take a taxi (20pounds, 20min). Overall a great stay for a couple of days, thanks to our hosts' thoughtfulness !

Lovely week at Blackberry cottage. Fully fitted to a fabulous standard. Perfect for us all ages 57, 15 and 88 (with disabilities) Becky was really helpful leaving us instructions for everything and loaning us a dog bed and wheelchair to use while we were there. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a true home from home. Little touches like treats for both us and our spaniel were appreciated too.
