Yesterday myself and my husband celebrated our wedding at Gwesty’r Emlyn, we had an absolutely amazing day, certainly one to remember for the rest of our lives. We’ve had nothing but compliments from our guests about how well the staff treated everyone throughout the day and the night. I want to say a massive thankyou to Julie for all that she done for us leading up to and on our special day, without the help of her and her staff our day wouldn’t have gone as smooth as it did. Thankyou so much for all that you done to make our day as special as it was. I will 100% be recommending this venue to each and every person I know.

Attended a family wedding hosted by Gwesty'r Emlyn on the weekend of 28th-29th June 2024. Thanks to Julie and her staff, it was wonderful: accommodation was lovely, clean and convenient for the wedding celebration; food was excellent, tasty and ample; the wedding venue within the hotel was ideal for the ceremony, reception and evening event; Julie and her staff were all cheerful and helpful. Most memorable, and a real asset for the pleasant and picturesque market town of Newcastle Emlyn.

We have just spent 2 nights at the hotel as we needed to attend a family event nearby. We stayed in a classic double room which was positioned at the side of the hotel rather than in the main building. …

Just for context - I was not a guest. I was a musician at a wedding last night. One thing I have never done is leave a review on a venue I play at because why would I? But today I'm compelled to. STUNNING venue. …
