A.O.L.: Accommodation on

Tuscany


 


 You couldn't hope for a more historic location. The Castle stands in the heart of medieval Conwy, snug within the town's ancient walls and neighbour to some of Wales's most historically significant buildings, including a mighty 13th-century fortress and Plas Mawr, 'Britain's finest Elizabethan town house'. In such surroundings it's easy to cast your mind back to the days when the Castle was a famous coaching inn. Step inside the striking, red-bricked porch &endash; one of the town's most photographed features &endash; and you'll see vestiges of days gone by, when the Castle played host to visitors such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Johnson and Charlotte Brontë. Beams, panelling, old fireplaces, antiques, nooks and crannies and a row of servants' bells bring real character to the place.

But most impressive of all are the paintings of Shakespearean scenes by distinguished Victorian artist John Dawson-Watson, reputedly given in return for his lodgings. Within this historic fabric, the Castle provides the welcome that today's travellers expect. The hotel's owners, the Lavin family along with friend and partner Graham Tinsley, are an experienced, professional team. They offer the highest standards of hospitality, and have established a reputation for fine dining based on an accomplished and enthusiastic use of locally sourced produce. This wonderful old hostelry is enjoying a new lease of life thanks to a programme of major upgrading and refurbishment which will be completed in 2005.
