Built in the 1930's, the name Castell Mynach translates into English as: "The Castle of the Monks", referring to an old monastery which the pub overlooked. The ruins of the monastery still stand, providing an interesting site to explore. Originally a residence, the pub was extended to accommodate the hostelry and our pub restaurant now stands on the grounds of the old stables.

A country pub near you oozing rural charm and rustic character, our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pubfood on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.
