Room was very comfortable. Lyndon the owner couldn't do enough and always at hand to help out, nothing was ever to much. The breakfast was lovely. The guest house was very quiet and you never get disturbed.

Well definitely the location if you are a Gavin & Stacy fan.
That a side the place had everything that was required for a short stay. Very clean and tidy. Loved having breakfast over looking the sea.
Car park at the rear was a bonus.
We will definitely recommend to family and friends.
Interesting to see the new and the old. Massive amount of regeneration going on, but still parts that won't have changed in my life time. It's worth a walk round the whole of the "island" not just the promenade. Barry town centre is a bit run down but efforts being made to improve things.

Stayed in Barry as the hotel was A LOT cheaper than Cardiff for the bank holiday/Bruce Springsteen gig. 2 mins away from train station, pubs and chip shop. Ideal for what we needed the weekend.
Barry itself is OK and nearby is Barry Island fair and the beach. Not too far from the airport and half hr to cardiff on the train for £6.

Barry is my husbands home town. It is always good to visit.
Barry is my husbands home town. It is always good to visit. We usually stay in the Vale but this time we thought we would go for a cheaper option on the coast.
We were shocked at how disinterested our hosts were in our plight of arriving late at night due to 2 aircraft malfunctions. We had to stay elsewhere for the first night because they would not allow us entry to the flat despite them taking payment in full from our credit card.
Their main concern was whether we would dispose of the rubbish. There was no broom to sweep the floor. The plastic floor was beginning to peel and there were way too many pots of plastic cactus left lying about the place. Why?
There was a frying pan full of smelly fat left in the oven. the bed was way too small for two people and full of dips from previous occupants. For the first time in 42 years of being together we slept separately, My partner taking one of the single beds. The kitchen taps looked like someone had taken out their frustrations with a hammer.
On the plus side parking was good as was the location.

I stayed in Barry for 3 nights.
I stayed in Barry for 3 nights. I was visiting Wales for the Six Nations at Principality Stadium in Cardiff. There are plenty of hotels in Cardiff, but the prices were all excessive because of the Rugby event. Barry is nearby, a short, 4 quid train ride away from Cardiff Central which is pretty much the center of action, to include a short walk to the stadium.
Barry itself was a nice, quiet detour away from the Capitol city. I enjoyed a few restaurants and bars while staying in this small town.
I did not rent a car. Walked everywhere I needed within Barry.

Having grown up around the area I always love coming back...
Having grown up around the area I always love coming back and seeing the changes that have happened and I'm glad to say , all for the better.
There are some lovely coastal walks and the goodsheds are amazing , it's also nice that you can walk around the waterfront .
Located about a 10 minute walk from the Barry Train Station, which is very accessible to nearby CARDIFF.
I liked the dine and drink options in Barry. Several options within the Goodstay compound. And downtown Barry is loaded with pubs and restaurants, all within walking distance.
My main reason for staying here was to watch the Rugby Six Nations at Principality Stadium...but the lodging costs in Cardiff were excessive. Goodstay Lodges worked out really, really well, for the most part.
Once we got into the hotel the staff was helpful and friendly. We had checked in early as we were going to a festival near by and they let us put our bags in one of the rooms until the rest were ready.Our rooms where clean and a good size aswell as the bathroom. We went into the bar in the night and the locals were friendly and made us welcome.
The breakfast room is accessible at all hours with all the supplies you need when you arrive for a snack or if leaving early morning. That was great. A quick taxi ride to Cardiff Airport for early morning flights. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The owner and her family who live on the premises were very welcoming when we arrived.
Lovely house in the brand new development around the Barry Docks.
It's a short walk (600m ish) from Barry Dock train station, allowing easy access to Barry and Barry Island with regular and cheap trains.
Anna the host was really helpful.
The house was clean comfortable and ideal for our needs, attending a local event over a weekend.
Nice quiet location. Easy parking. Comfortable bed. Every convenience in the flat you have at home and then some. Spotless clean and the host checked to see if you were happy. It didn’t hurt that everyone in Barry was so friendly as well.
The breakfast was really tasty and presented hot and timely. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The location was good as it was far enough away from noise and close to train station. We were able to visit Cardiff easily.
The location was beautiful in the middle of the countryside, great base for Barry Island (5 mins drive) and Cardiff (15mins). Staff are very welcoming, plenty of seating areas and the food was homemade and delicious!
We stayed in the cottage double room, it was spacious, clean, modern and comfortable, hotel is a 15 minute walk to Barry Island /beach/sea front, a nice easy walk, would definately stay again
The staff here are always super friendly, the Hotel is always clean and tidy.
I have stayed here numerous times and its my preferred Hotel in Barry Island.
Plus it has its own car park.
great layout for an apartment, plenty of room for 2 people and 1 dog, little outdoor space, good for visiting Cardiff Bay and Barry Island, my daughter and I really enjoyed staying here!
Property was easy to find and enter thanks to hosts information. Hostess was friendly and welcoming. Close to Barry island. Comfortable beds and nice selection of breakfast food.
