Pet Policy: Up to 2 medium/large dogs or 3 small dogs welcome at no extra charge

About the host
Hosted by Debbie & Carl
We are very fortunate to live in the beautiful area that is North Wales. We don't live too far away from Glan Gwna Holiday Park and are here to help out guests should you need us. Our other favourite destination is the USA.
We do have 2 properties on Glan Gwna. Both advertised here on VRBO. Once called Watkin and the other called Ranger. Both on Glan Gwna park and only a few doors away from each other.
