Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

Dating back to the 16th century, though the main building is 18th century, this grade two listed building is one of the most historic hotels in Wales. Originally known as the Tan y Bwlch Inn, it was renamed The Oakeley Arms, after the name of the local estate, in the 1840s.

The remote Plas Halt request stop on the preserved Ffestiniog railway is a mere 550m way as the crow flies, probably twice that by actual footpaths, if you can find them. Tan-y-Bwlch station is a more straight forward 1.5km up the B4410. Alternatively buses stop reguarly right outside the pub.

Historic Interest

Possibly 17th century, it had reached its current size by about 1840. Grade II Listed. Historic Wales ID: 4705
