This marks the fifth year Big 7 Travel has released its Best Hotels list, incorporating feedback and suggestions from readers to curate a collection that resonates with travellers.

The listing for Palé Hall – Gwynedd, Wales reads:

'Live out your Pride & Prejudice dream from this Victorian mansion.

'The setting couldn’t be better, on the cusp of the wild Berwyn Mountains and Eryri National Park. Although, with grounds as beautiful as these, there are few reasons to leave.

'This hotel is so beautiful that it once played host to Queen Victoria and Churchill.

'The manor’s period features and ornate furniture are wonderfully regal, holding the power to make any guest feel like royalty.

'Maybe it’s that, or maybe it’s the discreet yet attentive staff. They’re not hovering over you, but they’re somehow there as soon as you think you want a glass of wine. And delicious wine at that – even better when paired with the five-or-eight-course dinner menu.

'It’s this seasonal, ultra-fresh, and creative food that earned Palé Hall Wales’ first *Michelin Green Star.'

Price per night from £327.

That's why you said previously that you'd been passed often enough. So you'll pass again, eh? ;)

We need more quality hotels and less caravan sites for Welsh tourism to benefit local people. Wales needs to offer more than just the 'cheap and cheerful'.
