About the prize

Two night stay (valid Sunday-Friday) for two adults sharing a classic king double or twin room

Nestled in 220 acres of parkland and boasting sweeping views across Snowdonia, Bodysgallen Hall is a dreamscape of quiet luxury. One of three Historic House Hotels of the National Trust, it offers a peaceful retreat steeped in history and brimming with natural beauty.

The site features one of North Wales’ finest restaurants — recipient of 3 AA Rosettes — as well as a relaxing spa, award-winning gardens and over 30 faithfully restored rooms and suites. It’s also the perfect base for discovering Snowdonia national park, Bodnant Garden, and even the Penderyn Whisky Distillery in Llandudno.

With authentic features including stone mullioned windows and stained glass panels, guest rooms burst with character, perfectly blending contemporary comfort with fidelity to the past. Take a journey through time and explore quintessential furnishings, fine prints, and ancient relics, or sit by the fire in the drawing room and soak up the 17th Century ambiance.

Enjoy a woodland walk, seek out the Gothic Tower and feel the stress of the world melt away as you immerse yourself deeper in the hotel’s surroundings. The gardens have been described as some of the finest in Wales, and have even been featured on the BBC show ‘Glorious Gardens from Above’. Restoration and preservation of the exquisite grounds is an unending job, leaving box hedges, follies, herb bushels and all other kinds of natural marvels ready for guests to discover at leisure.

Bodysgallen Hall is also home to a variety of wellbeing facilities including a luxurious spa, perfectly fit for a country retreat. Guests can relax in the indoor pool, spa bath, sauna, steam room and relaxation room, or elect for a restorative treatment from the extensive menu (extra cost). Head to the Spa Club Room to enjoy views of the Deganwy Castle ruins with a refreshing drink, or have a detoxing workout at the fully equipped gymnasium. There’s also a croquet lawn, sun garden for lounging and several golf courses in the vicinity.

Dining at Bodysgallen Hall
What better way to indulge than with a seasonal menu crafted using the freshest local ingredients, including organic fruit and vegetables grown in the kitchen gardens on-site?

The restaurant at Bodysgallen Hall serves traditional Welsh cuisine, dreamed up by Head Chef Abdalla El Shershaby. Proud recipient of 3 AA rosettes for excellence, this award-winning culinary haven places special emphasis on quality and sustainability. Unwind with a heavenly candle-lit dinner and experience country house hospitality at its finest.

Included in the prize package is a second opportunity to be thoroughly spoiled by the talents of the kitchen team with a heavenly afternoon tea. Served in the library, drawing room or oak-panelled hall, enjoy a range of sandwiches, cakes, pastries and of course — freshly baked scones with cream. This really is a treat and is sure to be one of the highlights of any Bodysgallen stay.
