The Abbeyfield Hotel has a history that can be traced back to the 18th century, having metamorphosed from a Coaching Inn, to a Farmhouse and finally a Hotel in 1968. Well known for the excellent quality of its traditional home cooked food and for only using freshly sourced and seasonal ingredients, the menu of the Abbeyfield Hotel itself is exciting and unpredictable due to this seasonality. Another added bonus is the restaurant’s proximity to several sites of historical interest, such as the old village of Talybont and the National Trust Property Penrhyn Castle.
