A good example of a late Georgian coaching inn complete with significant basement. roof lantern and beer garden. It is most certainly a rarity for an Inn with such provenance to come to the market and the Douglas Arms Hotel is definitely a unique premises located in this beautiful corner of North Wales.

Grade II Listed, it's thought the hotel was built c.1820-1830 as a coaching inn to provide accommodation for travellers on Thomas Telford's new turnpike London to Holyhead Road (now the A5), it is a good example of a substantial late Georgian coaching inn. This is a three storey, three window range symmetrical building with two parallel ranges and a large hipped square roof lantern over the centre valley, affectionally known as the Belvedere? this of course provides panoramic views. As well as the sizeable accommodation, there is an impressive cellar/basement with a slate flagged floor which has seen some use down through the years and is still in use to this day. The hotel has been in the same family and lovingly maintained since 1913 with much of the interior unchanged since the 1930s. Like stepping back in time, they certainly don't make Inn's like this anymore! The Douglas Arms is complemented by generous gardens which run adjacent to the River Ogwen, a section of which is utilised as a beer garden with views of the Nant Francon valley and high peaks of the Carneddau range.
