Stayed for a week with my brother and our wives as a great base to explore the castles, steam railways, mountains and beaches of N. wales. Caerwylan is well located for touring and has wonderful views over the town and beach. …

This is a wonderful hotel. It is beautifully decorated and very very comfortable indeed. The view from our bedroom window is one of the most stunning views I have ever had - sea with mountains behind it. The food in the restaurant is delicious and the staff are excellent. We will definitely return - again and again!

We have just returned from our sixth stay in this wonderful hotel and to be honest, there simply aren’t enough superlatives to describe it. From the moment we checked in once again we were treated like old friends returning. …

We had booked a table for dinner in the Tonnau restaurant and this was our first visit to see what it was like. The decor and ambience was pleasant. The food was excellent (try the chocolate lava cake!) and wines were reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and helpful and the service was good too.
