The Black Swan is in a perfect spot to relax and walk about. The village is interesting and picture perfect. Location is handy for touring North Wales and Cheshire. The room was very comfortable and the pub and staff were friendly. Food delicious. Highly recommended.

Excellent accommodation

We stayed for 4 nights at the Black Lion. The room was spacious and comfortable. If you wanted every day cleaning, then you would probably have to ask. For us, we found that ok. It is a very busy place and popular. The bed was comfortable. The shower is in the bath, which for me was a bit awkward, as I am in my 80s. The food was really good, breakfast and evening meals really tasty and filling. The hosts and all the staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Absolutely recommended.

Absolutely fantastic stay. We stayed one of two nights here. Had we realised how close we were to the places we wanted to explore we would have stayed here both nights. Definitely better than the second place we stayed by a mile. Staff very welcoming and helpful. We arrived late and not with much time before the kitchen closed but was able to check in, get our belongings to the room and still order food. Evening meal and breakfast fantastic. Room very nice, specious and comfortable. Really enjoyable and pleasant stay. Thank you.
