Plas Dinas is a country house set in a farmland and has a reputation for hosting guests drawn from the fringes of the Royal Family. The building was constructed around the mid seventeenth century and features a substantial stone arch fireplace from that era. Andy and Julian, the hosts, have no formal background in hospitality but do what comes naturally to them making your stay pleasant and memorable.

A refreshing morning walk could be followed by a full Welsh breakfast with pork and leek sausage, bacon, mushrooms, free range fried egg, grilled tomato and black pudding. A day spent visiting local attractions such as Caernarfon Castle and the Bodnant garden can end with a sumptuous meal at the dining room. Order the spicy parsnip soup and crispy coated camembert for a start followed by beef in whisky sauce served with new potatoes and vegetables. A crème brûlée for dessert will fill in the chinks.
