The Glengower

The Glengower

10/10 Excellent
"What a fabulous find, with the greatest staff service from beginning to end. Room 24 was immaculately clean with a great view of the sea. The bed was amazingly comfortable and we had the best sleep we've had in a long time. The restaurant had a great menu, and the food was fabulous too. I can honestly say it was probably the best hotel stay we have had in the UK. Well done to all the staff, and keep up the amazing customer service that you provided."

Which area of Aberystwyth is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Aberystwyth for beaches is the town centre, particularly along the seafront promenade.

This area stretches along Cardigan Bay, offering direct access to both North Beach and South Beach. The promenade itself is a key feature, great for strolls, and you'll find hotels with sea views, traditional guesthouses, and a good selection of restaurants and cafes. It's also very convenient for reaching the town's main attractions, like the Royal Pier and Constitution Hill.

Couples looking for a relaxing coastal break will find the seafront appealing. You can enjoy long walks along the beach, watch the sunset over the bay, and have dinner with sea views. There are also plenty of spots for a quiet drink in the evening.

Families will also appreciate staying near the beaches. North Beach is popular for its pier and the funicular railway up Constitution Hill, which offers great views and activities for children. South Beach, while smaller, is a nice spot for a quieter afternoon by the sea.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Aberystwyth?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Aberystwyth is during the summer months, particularly July and August. The weather is at its warmest then, with average temperatures hovering around 18-20°C, making it ideal for enjoying the town's seaside charm and the shingle beach.

During this peak period, families often find the conditions great for classic seaside activities, from building sandcastles to strolling along the promenade. All the local attractions, like the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway and the National Library of Wales, are fully operational with extended hours, and the town buzzes with a lively option. You'll find plenty of opportunities for outdoor dining and enjoying the long daylight hours.

For those seeking a slightly more tranquil experience with potential for excellent value, June presents a fantastic alternative. The weather is still very pleasant, with temperatures often reaching 16-18°C, and the days are long. It can be easier to secure reservations at the most sought-after beachfront accommodations and top restaurants, and you may find better value on travel arrangements.
What beach activities should we do in Aberystwyth?
The best area to stay in Aberystwyth for beach activities is along the seafront, particularly near the North Beach and the promenade.

This area is the heart of Aberystwyth's coastal charm. The North Beach is a shingle beach stretching for about a kilometre, bordered by a long Victorian promenade. You'll find the iconic Aberystwyth Pier here, offering traditional seaside entertainment. The promenade is great for leisurely strolls, and the beach itself is excellent for skimming stones, enjoying the sea air, or simply relaxing with the sound of the waves.

For families, staying near the North Beach is ideal. Children will enjoy building sandcastles (though it's a shingle beach, there are sandy patches at low tide), searching for interesting pebbles, and riding the cliff railway up Constitution Hill for panoramic views. The promenade also features a paddling pool and play areas, making it convenient for keeping little ones entertained close to the hotel.

Couples looking for a relaxing coastal break will also appreciate hotels along the North Beach. You can enjoy romantic walks along the promenade, especially at sunset, and easily access the many cafes and restaurants overlooking the bay.
