We had a wonderful 3-night stay at Gelynis! Margaret was always friendly and helpful, and the train station to Cardiff is a scenic 30-minute walk. My husband and I stayed in the Lambert room and my brother in the Bute room; both in the old stables of this 16th century house and both very clean with comfortable beds, and spa-like... More

We had a most enjoyable one-night stay here. The location is excellent, the rooms are faultless, and the hostess was most helpful and nothing was too much trouble. If you look at the map, the guest house appears to be very near the motorway, and I was a bit concerned about the possible noise - but there were no problems... More

I stayed at the Gelynis Farm north of Cardiff in mid-November and was delighted with my visit. I walked from the Radyr rail station along the Taff Trail, next to the Taff River, although the hostess offered to pick me up at the station. The room had everything I needed and breakfast was excellent. The hostess was very engaging, answering... More

This is the first time I’m I have stayed at Gleynis farm though my husband has stayed here twice before. Pros – very comfy large bed, great shower. The furnishings were quality, bedroom and ensuite nicely decorated and immaculately clean. I slept very well as it was quiet with no noise from outside or neighbours. The room size was snug... More

We spent three nights at Gelynis in May and had a terrific time. The farm itself has great character - built in the 17th century it just oozes history, and tasteful restoration makes it a snug and fascinating place to stay. It's a few miles out of Cardiff but we really enjoyed the stroll to Radyr station to catch the... More

We stayed here for two nights in July 2011 after researching B&B's near Cardiff on Tripadvisor. The booking system and how the deposit is taken is bizarre: It required several emails and Links send back to secure sites etc - this could be improved upon and may cost Gelynis potential business- the booking experience should be seamless now, in 2011,...

Very impressive bed and breakfast with an excellent 'welsh' breakfast with good choices. The room was very comfortable with good ensuite and 'king' size bed--although due to Cadw--the Welsh equivalent of English Heritage-asking for the canopy above the rooms at 1st floor level to be removed there was a very small problem of dripping water outside due to the heavy...

My wife and I stayed at the Gelynis B&B for 4 nights and loved everyting about it. We arrived by car and my wife was not too sure about the rail crossing gates. However after talking to Margaret (the hostess) and her son Edward we found that the easiest way to get to Cardiff was by train. This involved a... More

I can truely recommend gelynis farm for anyone visiting Cardiff looking for somewhere which has heart, character, authenticity and that special something extra which makes you want to go back again. iIt is on out skirts on the taff trail which makes it perfect for cyclists. Its a little quirky for drivers having to manually cross a train line but... More
