'What a wonderful time we had last Sunday at our Golden Wedding lunch! Many of our guests have commented how much they enjoyed the occasion, made special by The Glen-Yr-Afon and of course the staff, who made it all possible. We were looked after by the team with excellence and professionalism. However, we must not forget the kitchen; out of sight bu tnot out of mind, so our thanks to Chef and her brigade.'
