“Absolutely brilliant!!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

I booked the hotel last minute for my partner and I to spend New Year's Eve and New Year's Day away. We loved the place as soon as we drove up the driveway, it's a really nice hotel in lovely grounds. At check in we were greeted by the owners and couldn't have been made to feel more welcome, or so we thought - we hadn't made any plans for eating but the hotel was having a New Year's Eve event and the owners moved things around to fit us into the party. It went on to be an amazing evening, we met a couple who have been going for 15 years (tells you how good the place is!) and the food was absolutely lovely, in fact my partner ate his dessert and mine! We had a brilliant stay and have never stayed anywhere quite like it! The pool, gym and sauna were lovely and were very clean. Reception even kept breakfast opened later for us on New Year's Day and gave us a call to come down to make sure we didn't miss it. We are already planning on spending next New Year and hopefully be going a couple more times in the year, family are planning to join us based on our rave reviews and here's hoping we too are still going time and time again in 15 years!!!

Room Tip: We had room 408 which was on the first floor at the end of the building - lovely comfy room and good...

“Very pleasant and helpful staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

Stayed here for one night. Very friendly helpful staff. Good evening meals. Plenty of parking space. Comfortable room. Would return here again. Recommended. Old world style bar area and having a drink here was pleasant. Did not use the gym area or pool so can't comment on these.

“We had a wonderful day”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 October 2011

We got married and held our reception here last weekend and had a wonderful day. Our 36 guests agreed it was the best wedding they had been to, the food was gorgeous and the staff friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is relaxing and the grounds beautiful for photographs and the building is magnificent. We fully intend to restay for every anniversary.

“From strength to strength.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

Considering this property was built in the sixteenth century and fell victim to a major fire in 1984 this hotel continues to make its presence felt. The setting, in its own large grounds, naturally lends itself to wedddings and functions, Not content to rest upon their parents laurels, brothers Stephen and Jonathon continue to make tastefull improvements. There is a reasonably sized swimming pool and the necessary equipment to keep fitness fanatics busy. You can eat either in the confortable bar area or the old oak panelled dinning room, one of my favourite dinning rooms. Having known the hotel for some years I have yet to be disappointed with the quality or the service. There is no question of the chefs only being able to offer a set meal at a function. Good choices are available and they are presented very well, with more than adequate portions for all. The quality of the food is consistently good and any function is made more pleasurable by the ever attentive staff. Located close to the A55 Expressway this is very coveniently placed for the North Wales Coast or hinterland.

Room Tip: Discuss your requirements when booking. Every effort will be made to help you.
