We are delighted to inform you that Bodysgallen Hall is now the proud holder of the title ‘AA Hotel of the Year for Wales, 2012-2013’. We are honoured to receive this prestigious award from the Automobile Association. It is a true reflection of the dedication of the long-serving team at Bodysgallen Hall, to ensure that the high levels of service to which we continually strive to provide our guests have been maintained over the last 31 years. The AA Hospitality Awards, hosted this year by Kate Silverton, saw the great and good of the country’s hospitality industry come together to celebrate not only the amazing achievements of the individuals and establishments receiving recognition for outstanding excellence in their field but also 20 years of the iconic AA Restaurant Guide.

However, we will not rest on our laurels, and to celebrate and share our success with you we are extending our GREAT BRITISH BREAK from January 3rd through to the end of March 2013!

Also, for this coming year of celebration of the award we have organised a whole series of exciting events including garden tours, cookery demonstrations and guest speakers. I hope that you will come and celebrate with us and you can be certain of a very warm Welsh welcome on arrival at Bodysgallen.
