The Hand at Llanarmon A TRUE COUNTRY EXPERIENCE - meet the locals in a country inn with a MODERN TWIST. Good Food- tasty, inventive cuisine, good value - and fabulous breakfasts
(616)

The Hand at Llanarmon is an ancient hostelry with all the attributes you’d expect – bags of character, a cosy, relaxing ambience and a warm welcome from your hosts, Jonathan and Jackie Greatorex. As soon as you arrive you feel the weight of the world dissolving as the surroundings work their magic. All the classic ingredients are here – old beams, roaring fireplaces, a casual mix-and-match of pine and oak furniture, real ale and good food. The latter is seriously good. Thanks to the talents of Head Chef Grant Mulholland and his team, The Hand is renowned for award-winning food; an inventive marriage of country fare and sophisticated metropolitan cuisine.

£20,000 worth of damage to a local pub. Honestly, what is wrong with people?! 😡😡

We’re absolutely gutted for our colleagues at The Star Inn in Llangollen after some mindless idiots broke in and caused all this damage.

Knowing how much hard work, time and effort goes into running a pub, it makes our blood boil seeing something like this happen, especially to people who are just trying to make a living.

Hospitality is hard enough at the moment without having to deal with this sort of thing.

If anyone recognises those responsible or knows anything about what happened, please get in touch with the team at The Star Inn or the police.

We really feel for everyone involved and hope they catch whoever did this. ❤️

We LOVE this!! ❤️❤️

A little update from me about our opening hours over the quieter months.

As I explain in the video, running a rural hospitality business comes with its fair share of challenges, and sometimes we have to make sensible decisions to protect both the business and the brilliant team behind it.

The closure dates are shown in the graphic below (Facebook won’t let you upload a video and a photo). We’ll still be open throughout the busiest parts of autumn and winter, including Christmas and New Year, and on certain dates we’ll reopen for pre-booked dinners and shooting parties.

This is simply about using the quieter days wisely, controlling costs and making sure we remain here, warm, welcoming and doing what we do best for many years to come.

Thank you, as ever, for your understanding and continued support. It genuinely means more to us than you probably realise.

Jonathan & all the team at The Hand ❤️

Well, that was a nice surprise! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an unannounced AA inspection at The Hand today and I’m delighted to say we’ve retained our Four Star Gold Inn rating for 2026.

There’s something particularly satisfying about a spot inspection. No warning, no time to get ready — they simply see the place as it is on an ordinary day.

A huge thank you to all of our team. Maintaining standards like this year after year takes a lot of hard work, and this is very much down to them.

Four Star Gold for another year. We’ll take that! 🥂

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ FIVE STARS AGAIN! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We’re absolutely delighted to have received another 5-star Food Hygiene Rating following our latest Environmental Health inspection. 🎉

We’ve maintained the highest possible rating for many years now, but that doesn’t mean we ever take it for granted. A five-star rating comes from the hard work, care and attention that goes on behind the scenes every single day.

A huge thank you to our brilliant kitchen team in particular. Maintaining these standards day after day takes real commitment, discipline and teamwork, and today’s result is thoroughly deserved.

We’re incredibly proud of you all. ❤️

Five stars. Again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Well… the weather certainly tried its best to ruin the party! ⛈️☔️😂

But you lot weren’t having any of it.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came out and supported us this weekend, despite the rain, the thunder, the lightning and everything else the Welsh weather decided to throw at us.

You danced, you drank, you ate, you got wet… and you carried on regardless. And what a brilliant weekend it turned out to be. ❤️

Seeing so many people having such a great time made all the hard work worthwhile.

Thank you for braving the elements, thank you for supporting us and thank you for making the weekend such a massive success.

You were absolutely brilliant. ❤️🍻🎶
