A pub and eatery in the Ceiriog Valley is having a double celebration after being awarded two top awards following an anonymous inspection by The AA.

The Hand at Llanarmon retained its Two Rosettes for Culinary Excellence and following a refurbishment programme, which has seen the recent opening of the new ‘Pump House Spa’, has been awarded the much coveted Gold Star Award.

Jonathan Greatorex, managing director of The Hand at Llanarmon said, “We are all absolutely chuffed to bits.

“This has been the culmination of five years of hard work by the entire team here.

“For a small village inn to be awarded these incredible accolades is utterly fantastic; we’re totally blown-away”.

The Hand at Llanarmon attracted national interest earlier this year when it was approached by the publishers Away With Media who offered them a book deal to write a book about The Hand.

‘A Slice of Heaven’ is being published in November.
