Description

Originally established in 1873, the Bontddu Hall Hotel is a historic stone structure that has witnessed many notable guests, including Sir Winston Churchill. However, following a significant fire in 2020, the property now stands in a state of disrepair and cannot be used in its current form. This presents an advantageous opportunity for redevelopment or complete reconstruction, allowing potential buyers to create a bespoke project tailored to their vision, pending appropriate planning permissions from local authorities. Nestled within the stunning Snowdonia National Park in North Wales, this site spans approximately 2.4 acres and is conveniently located just five miles from Barmouth, with beautiful views over the Irish Sea. Access is readily available via major routes such as the A496, A493, and A470, connecting easily to both North and South Wales as well as England. With no existing planning permissions associated with the property, any interested parties will need to explore these avenues directly with the relevant departments. Given its previous success as an operational hotel, there remains substantial potential for future business opportunities here.
