If there’s one thing I’ve learned since taking over the Rhiw Goch Inn, it’s that a Welsh sunset is best served with a cold pint and a bit of a laugh. There’s something about the way the light hits the Rhinogydd mountains that makes you forget your phone, your emails,...

There’s a specific kind of magic that happens here at Rhiw Goch Inn around 6:30 AM in late June. I usually roll out of bed, grab a coffee that’s probably too strong, and look out over the Rhinogydd mountains from our spot in Bronaber. On a morning like today, Tuesday,...
