The Leyland Arms
Pub
👍👍 What an absolute hidden gem. The staff are attentive, polite and very welcoming. The food is superb quality and in my mind reasonably priced. The views are stunning from the beer garden and the church facing the pub is a beautiful historic building.

Bod Petryal
Hiking area
👍👍 Stunning and quiet. Just off the Ruthin to Cerrigydrudion road this little beauty will relax and please you. A small lake, lots of tall trees and a “woody” scent that reminds of childhood adventures in the trees. Picnic tables are provided. A nature treat to be savoured. Small car park.
