The Dining Room at Bodysgallen

Bodysgallen's 2 AA Rosette Dining Room is led by Head Chef Abdalla El Shershaby. The cuisine is traditional modern British, with a strong estate-to-plate element: fruit, vegetables, herbs and other produce from Bodysgallen's own gardens appear throughout the menus alongside locally sourced ingredients.

Representative dishes have included confit Scottish salmon with citrus fennel and avocado, sea scallop with caramelised cauliflower, fillet of beef with estate artichokes and truffle sauce, and estate-grown beetroot preparations. A fine-dining Bill of Fare runs Wednesday-Sunday, with a simpler, less formal dinner menu on Monday and Tuesday.

Dinner is served Sunday-Thursday 6.30pm-8.30pm and Friday-Saturday 6.30pm-9pm. Dress is smart; trainers, tracksuits and shorts are not accepted. The restaurant is on site.

Sleep

The hotel has around 31 rooms and suites across the main house and cottages, set within more than 200 acres. That mix allows guests to choose between the atmosphere of the historic house and more independent cottage-style accommodation.

Retreat

The spa includes an indoor pool, sauna, steam room, gym and treatments. Recent guest feedback calls the spa relatively compact but consistently praises its cleanliness and treatments; the surrounding gardens and estate add a second, outdoor form of relaxation.

Location and things to do

The hotel's setting in Llandudno makes it a natural base for the surrounding area as well as a place to stay for dinner. For a two-night break, allow time outside the dining room rather than treating the property as a one-evening stop.

The Gourmet Getaway

Indicative build-your-own Gourmet Getaway: the indicative price shown in the price panel combines our current accommodation-and-breakfast benchmark with the selected restaurant's dining cost for two. It is designed for comparison and research and is not an official hotel package price. Because accommodation and menu prices can change, use the live price panel as the current indicative figure.

National Trust Winter Break from £139: Accommodation, cooked breakfast, spa use, £25pp dinner allowance, £20pp spa-treatment voucher and National Trust entry benefits. Sunday-Thursday; valid 1 October 2026 to 25 March 2027, with stated festive blackout dates.

Gourmet Getaways view

Bodysgallen Hall and Spa works best when the hotel, restaurant and setting are treated as one trip rather than three separate bookings. Choose the room and dinner first, then use the surrounding time to make the break feel like a proper retreat.
