Composed by a duo of classical musicians, The Glasshouse is a soothing waterside retreat that’s ideal for hen or stag dos. Evolving from a humble cottage to a contemporary sanctuary, this luxury home was designed with nature and deep relaxation in mind. Surrounded by two-and-a-half acres of woodlands, lakes and marshlands, The Glasshouse’s gardens are a true celebration of Afon Teifi.
