“My time at Plas Dinas felt less like a hotel stay and more like being welcomed into a storied private home, where elegantly appointed rooms, rich with Armstrong-Jones family history, provided a luxurious and comfortable retreat. The dedication to local provenance shone through every course of the meticulously crafted tasting menu at the Gunroom Restaurant, creating a truly exceptional dining experience. It's clear that thoughtful touches and a genuine warmth from the team are at the heart of what makes this country house so special.”
