"The reception staff were excellent very accommodating and friendly, well located only a 5 minute walk to the Byron's town centre and beach. The cabins and the whole property was neat,clean and well maintained, I have no hesitation of recommending Glen Villa for a place to stay and will definitely be going back there in the future. There is a neat little coffee hut just outside the reception serving a good coffee and an assortment of food items."
