CHANGING TIMES
Since mid-2024 our restaurant with rooms has had new owners, and a new culinary team. And a staged refurbishment is under way.
TYDDYN LLAN'S TEAM
Gareth Stevenson is an acclaimed head chef. He has already shown his desire to support local producers and source quality ingredients, including the use of the kitchen garden when possible. This ethos and focus on sustainability shines through the new cooking style at Tyddyn LLan, creating an exceptional and truly Welsh dining experience.
Joshua Morris, Welsh Chef of the Year 2024, is Gareth’s second in command, with David Cox as Head Pastry Chef. To complete this experienced team, Gareth’s partner Maria, joined our current restaurant manager Torin, as front-of-house manager.
There is experience and expertise gained from some of the UK’s finest starred establishments.
Regulars will know Carol Moody in the office, from before.
Dinner is now only tasting menus, to reduce waste and maintain quality. There is a choice of six or ten courses, including coffee and petits fours. Sunday lunch is a more traditional three course offering. Our Dining Page has menus to entice you and give a flavour of what is on offer.

SOME REVIEWS
Below we show customer opinion of recent months from Trip Advisor, Google My Business and by email.
I wanted to write to thank you for your hospitality during our stay in September.
My husband and I stayed at Tyddyn Llan twice pre-Covid and had wanted to bring my parents. Covid intervened but we managed finally to arrange a stay in September for my mother’s birthday. We knew that you had just changed hands (and of course the hospitality sector has difficulties as a whole) and were prepared to experience some teething issues – but our stay was superb from start to finish.
The food of course was magnificent. I’ve been lucky to eat in Michelin starred and other highly rated restaurants throughout the UK and I’ve seldom eaten as well, and never better, than we did during our stay. But what really makes Tyddyn Llan stand out is the welcome and the service, which is friendly, knowledgeable, never overbearing and makes guests feel like they are at home (but with a truly superb dinner and breakfast).
A particular thank you also to your gardener who recommended that we visit Plas Brondarw, which we had never heard of and was lovely (and also where the sun was).

Fantastic progress, stunning food We were the first guests to stay at Tyddyn Llan after the refurbishment of the public areas, and what a wow factor! They are beautiful, a wonderful freshness with a nice relaxed feel to the place. I could see myself curling up with a book by the fire if we were to stay longer than 1 night. Our room was clean and comfortable, if dated and tired, the building is undergoing an extensive refurbishment and one of our party stayed in the newly decorated room, which is stunning, I look forward to returning when there are more rooms sorted as that's my only real critique.
Our meal in the restaurant was stunning, every course was packed full of flavour, and you can tell the chef takes care in procuring his ingredients, and breakfast the next morning was fantastic. Well done to the new team, we can't wait to come back when there are more refreshed rooms!
Tyddan Llan - new team but still fabulous food and hospitality This was our first visit since Gareth and Emily took over from Bryan and Susan and we were not disappointed. We had the 10 course tasting menu and it was a stunner. Every single course was excellent but there were some courses we swooned over. The venison and beetroot, the crab with XO sauce, and the pre-dessert of orange and custard (like a trifle) all had us swooning. A truly truly excellent meal. The service was warm, friendly and attentive without being overbearing (thank you Faye). We loved our visit and were so pleased that Tyddan Llan has such a worthy successor. We will definitely be back. Visit this restaurant whilst its still possible to get a table because it is going to become a destination restaurant with cooking of that standard. 
A wonderful evening for two Absolutely wonderful! Food sublime, staff excellent, surroundings exceptional. Would highly recommend. This place We are certain, will soon gain a Michelain star! 
Excellent all round Superb in every aspect! New owners have put their stamp on this excellent restaurant with rooms and have a rolling plan of improvements and refurbishment. Certainly deserve our support. Can't wait to return. Particularly impressed with the breakfast experience. 
Delicious from beginning to end This was our third visit since Gareth and the new team took over . We have thoroughly enjoyed each visit but each time it gets better and better. We started with a selection of delicious snacks, so creative and an excellent start to what was to follow . The 6 course menu was well balanced , creative, fresh and mouth watering delicious. The wine pairing was excellent value, fun and beautifully served by the lovely and excellent front of house Emily . The whole team are a delight. Thanks to you all.
