Dining Experience
The Berwyn Arms serves British, French, Korean, and local cuisines across brunch, lunch, dinner, and high tea. The daily specials menu includes homemade dishes such as steak pudding and sticky toffee pudding with vanilla ice cream. Gluten-free options are available, and the restaurant sources local produce for the full Welsh breakfast.
Rooms & Views
Each of the four guest rooms offers mountain and river views, with Double Rooms with Mountain View featuring bay windows overlooking the wooded Dee Valley. Rooms include private bathrooms, flatscreen TVs, and work desks, with some rooms providing views of heritage steam trains passing below. The bedrooms are located at the rear of the property, minimizing road noise from the A5.

“The setting here is undeniably a significant draw, particularly the rear-facing rooms that open onto truly beautiful views, a welcome contrast to its roadside placement. Staff clearly go the extra mile, accommodating late arrivals with kitchen service and ensuring a comfortable, well-appointed room. The food, from evening meals to breakfast, consistently impresses with both quality and value, making a return visit an easy decision.”
