"We could gush about the house, garden and setting all day but it was the incredible hospitality and warmth from all the staff that made it feel quite so special."
About Us
Gliffaes is very much a family business and Susie and I represent the 3rd generation of the Brabner family to take on the running of the hotel, which was started by Sam and Jane Brabner in 1948. Nick and Peta Brabner took over from them in 1972 and the baton was passed to us in 1999. The fourth generation are being broken in gently. Like most small businesses owners we are very much hands on from day to day. This is our home and we look forward to welcoming you here.
We employ about 28 people, a mix of part and full time employees. Some live in the next door village while others come from us far a field as Thailand or New Zealand. Some stay with us for six months, while others like, Diane Leonard (receptionist - Di the Desk) have been at Gliffaes for over 20 years. It's their friendliness and helpfulness that is commented on regularly by our guests.
"I would like to thank you and your staff for your relaxed and efficient hospitality." - Dr N. McCulloch
Gliffaes is proud of the niche it has made for itself in this wonderful part of Wales and we hope to carry on in the same vein for many years to come.
