A quick overnighter while in the area for a golf event. Happy with our stay and no complaints - the lady who checked us in was very helpful and friendly, especially around directing us to use the dining room for takeaways which suited our purpose.

This is the second time we have stayed at The Moelwyn . Always a lovely welcome. At £70 per night for the room it was fine . We were able to bring our own food in to eat at the hotel- one evening we ate fish and chips with a bottle of wine on the terrace with a lovely view of the castle and seaside nearby - perfect
