ABOUT THE BRITANNIA INN HOTEL
Britannia Inn Hotel,
Llangollen: High Quality food, accommodation, Bed and Breakfast (B&B)
Back to HOME MENU
The Britannia Inn, situated at the foot of the
Horseshoe Pass, was built in the 14th Century by the Monks of
the nearby Valle Crucis Abbey. Having an extensive view of the Vale of Llangollen below,
well known throughout
the area for it's good food, accommodation and hospitality, the Britannia Inn is a favourite for locals
and holiday makers alike, offering high quality Bed and Breakfast (B&B)
accommodation and also half board accommodation (see
special breaks), in a relaxed
country setting.
As well as featuring in many quality Food and Hotel guides, the Britannia Inn Hotel has also featured in publications abroad - once favoured in the L.A. Times as the place to stop in North Wales! Another attraction for visitors to the Hotel are our award winning flower displays. The Britannia Inn is credited with no less than 15 Wales in Bloom awards - the colours change with the seasons and always look spectacular. Accommodation at the Britannia won't disappoint, the quaint "cottage style" guest rooms are friendly and welcoming, and four of the Guest rooms have lovely panoramic views of the valley below.
View down the valley from one of
the Hotel's Guest Rooms...
In the summer, sit outside at one of the outdoor seating areas and enjoy the lovely views. In the winter, sit indoors with a hot drink, enjoy the sparkling snowy view, and consider a short trip up the nearby mountain. Whether to enjoy tobogganing with the kids or to take in the spectacular views at the top of the Horseshoe pass, its a lovely place to visit. Alternatively, wander down the mountain and explore picturesque Llangollen Town, centred around it's bridge crossing over the Dee River. Or just go off on an exciting adventure on one of the many local tourist activities - there is so much to do from your base at the Britannia inn, you will be absolutely spoilt for choice. And even if the weather is poor, you can relax in your guest room with a good book, or your Television, and just feel your blood pressure reducing by the minute - whilst eagerly looking forward to your next tasty meal down in the elegant dining room or the comfortable Lounge Bar. Or simply sit in front of the open fire in the lounge bar with a book or newspaper - it's entirely up to you!

Nearby Aqueduct....
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 10 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, Clwyd Theatr Cymru, and the historic walled city of Chester are all within easy striking distance.
At the right time of year, Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod is a must. But book early as accommodation is scarce during the Eisteddfod!

history,

unless you are incredibly fit!

History...
Britannia Inn Hotel,
Llangollen: High Quality accommodation, Bed and Breakfast (B&B)
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 - have a look at the wooden beam over the fireplace!
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!! Several séances have been held at the Brit with startling results!
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...
