Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Just a short note to say how much we enjoyed our stay at Plas Glansevin, over this New Year. The consensus opinion amongst the whole group was that this was the best venue that we have been to, in the 15 years that we have been holding New Year’s Eve parties. The key to the success was the enormous dining and kitchen facilities.

Thank you so much for everything you did to make our time at Plas Glansevin such a hugely enjoyable one. Every single person had a brilliant time and we would love to come back again at some point to do it all again. What was particularly wonderful was the fact that when we arrived everything was all ready and set up for us - from the beds, made up exactly as we needed, to the spare duvets, right down to the soap and shampoo, towels and supply of logs by the fire.The house and the whole weekend really was marvellous. Amazing to have such a large house with so much space for everybody, that felt so homely and cosy.

We could not have chosen a more perfect location for my autumnal 40th birthday party. A gorgeous house and so well equipped, roaring log fires and lots of character. Everything has been thought of and the housekeeper is very helpful on arrival. Thank you so much for allowing us to use your beautiful house!
