The address is a little misleading - in the nicest possible way. Llanarmon DC is only ‘near’ to Llangollen as the crow flies. A long and winding road up the beautiful Ceiriog Valley leads to a crossroads and tiny village locked away in the undiscovered Berwyn Mountains.

A giant sculpted wooden hand outside beckons you into an ancient hostelry which is so much a part of village life that staying here becomes inseparable from its location. The combination of Llanarmon’s soothing surroundings and what you find inside

The Hand work together in a magical way: as soon as you arrive you feel the weight of the world dissolving. Your hosts Gaynor and Martin De Luchi have created a gem of a country inn where locals and visitors mix in unaffected harmony.

All the classic ingredients are here - old beams, roaring fireplaces, a casual mix-and-match of pine and oak furniture, real ale, warm, plum-coloured walls and good food. The latter is seriously good. Thanks to the talents of Head Chef Grant Mulholland and his team, The Hand is renowned for award-winning food, an inventive marriage of country fare and sophisticated metropolitan cuisine.

The bedrooms, in a variety of sizes, reflect similar influences, with rustic decor and sparkling modern bathrooms. Country lovers just love the location.

You can walk in the Berwyns for hours with only the sheep for company. And the ever-helpful Hand can arrange many country pursuits, including horse riding, fishing and shooting. Don’t bother packing your mobile phone - it doesn’t work here.
