| Why you should go: To look out over the Menai Strait from a “gloriously romantic” (Daily Mail), fairytale-esque château. Modelled after the 16th-century castles of the Loire Valley, Château Rhianfa is full of period décor, tapestries, chandeliers, and stained-glass windows. The hotel is also less than a 10-minute drive from the beautiful town of Beaumaris, which is home to a 13th-century castle built by King Edward I. What's the big deal? A 2-night stay for two, with breakfast, in a Château Standard Double Room is now £199 instead of up to £320. |
