Caerwylan Hotel

Caerwylan Hotel is best thought of as a comfortable coastal base rather than a full resort. That suits a lot of golf breaks down here, especially if your plan is to play, explore and spend evenings in Criccieth rather than stay on-site all day.

Rooms vary, with many set up to make the most of the sea views across Tremadog Bay. If views are part of the trip, it's worth requesting one when you book. After a day on the links, the hotel has a relaxed feel, ideal for couples and small groups who want somewhere easy and unfussy to come back to.

Practicalities matter on a golf trip, so it's worth checking the details when you enquire, including parking, dining options and whether there's space for storing clubs. The upside is you're also within walking distance of the village, so you've got choice for food and a casual drink without needing taxis.

For course access, Criccieth puts you within easy reach of the standout layouts around Harlech and the Llŷn Peninsula, with Snowdonia close enough to mix in a non-golf day. In summer, the beaches are a genuine alternative to the 19th hole, which is handy if you're travelling with non-playing partners or a mixed group.

The Victorian building has been thoughtfully updated to offer contemporary comfort while retaining its coastal character. The emphasis is on providing a quality stay in a superb location, with those ever-present bay views creating a relaxing atmosphere. For golfers who prioritise course access, scenery and a welcoming place to stay, Caerwylan Hotel delivers what matters without unnecessary extras.
