Llangollen is one of the few towns in Britain to offer 3 modes of transport in and out of the town.  Firstly by road, secondly by steam railway, and thirdly by canal.  Llangollen steam railway is open all year around and is very popular, particularly Thomas the Tank Engine and friends.

Nearby Aqueduct....Aqueduct - Britannia Inn Hotel and Bed and Breakfast (B&B)              

There are so many historical sites of interest and tourist attractions nearby it would be impossible to mention them all.  The many historic buildings in the area include  Chirk Castle, Valle Crucis Abbey (only 5 minutes walk from the Britannia Inn), Errdig Hall and Plas Newydd - to name but a few.  The Inn is also in an ideal position for those wishing to explore further into Wales, being only 35 minutes from the Coastal towns of Colwyn Bay and Conway, and 40 minutes from the Snowdonia Mountain range and Llandudno.   Horseshoe Pass is on the Inn's doorstep, picturesque Llangollen Town only a few minutes drive away, and the River Dee, Theatre Clwydd, and the historic walled city of Chester are all within easy striking distance.

Britannia Inn History...
Britannia Inn Hotel, Llangollen: High Quality accommodation, Bed and Breakfast (B&B)

Back to HOME MENU

The Britannia Inn, Llangollen, is steeped in Centuries of history and has close links with the nearby Valle Crucis Abbey.  It is thought that originally the Britannia Inn was one cottage built specifically for the monks, using some materials that could have been from the Abbey itself!

Now the Monks are said to still inhabit the Brit... some people are certain they have caught glimpses of monk-like shadows in several of the main public rooms, and others swear they have actually seen them!!

If you are interested in reading more on this subject and the History of the Britannia Inn, Ann (the Proprietor) has given an interview to the BBC - North East Wales, Denbighshire.  Click on this link for the detailed story...
