Castell Deudraeth, Grade II listed castle and hotel in Penrhyndeudraeth, Great Britain.
Castell Deudraeth is a mid-sized country house with castle-like features built from local slate and includes a three-storey central block with taller adjoining sections. The building now operates as a hotel, combining its historic structure with contemporary guest accommodations.
Built in the 18th century and originally called Bron Eryn, the building was purchased by David Williams in 1841, who undertook major renovations that transformed it into Castell Deudraeth. This extensive redesign created the castle-like architecture that remains visible today.
The rooms display works by Sir Kyffin Williams and Marc Chagall prints, while restored oak paneling and stone fireplaces mark the interior spaces. These artworks connect the building to both local Welsh culture and international artistic traditions.
The property features 12 rooms and suites with equipped kitchens, underfloor heating, and Wi-Fi throughout. Its setting at the edge of a village makes it easy to explore the surrounding countryside on foot and enjoy the quiet of rural Wales.
One of the suites offers views of the Dwyryd estuary and the Rhinogydd mountains from its balcony, highlighting the building's setting in a dramatic landscape. Views of these natural features are rare from most other locations in the area.
