Wall Roman Site Tours and Activities

Very calm and quiet. Really enjoyed the Crazy Fox

We had a lovely overnight stay at The Lion Quays resort, my husband was able to check in to our room early, whilst my cousin and I went on a very nice spa day in the separate facility on site. The hotel site is showing some signs of wear and tear, the carpets are tired and worn in places, the decking on the moorings is a bit rotten but it looks as though they’re starting to replace it. This however, didn’t really spoil anything for us. Our room had a lovely view of the canal with doors you could open up and take in the fresh air, the proximity to the A5 means there is some road noise almost all the time, but this didn’t bother us. Overall the room was well appointed and clean, though we couldn’t figure out how to get the tv to work other than as a radio and it would’ve been helpful to have had more than one USB socket, as we both forgot our charger plugs. Large comfy bed, no complaints there. We had booked B&B, and the breakfast buffet in the adjacent restaurant was excellent. Everything you’d generally want in a good British buffet, including decent coffee. The proximity to the Llangollen canal meant we could get straight onto the tow path and enjoyed a lovely walk up to Chirk and back. Well worth it to view the aqueduct and viaduct. You can go further through the tunnel and there’s lots to explore. We’d go back. It’s a nice, convenient place to stay. The spa facilities are also excellent and they use Elemis products which is always a bonus from my point of view.

Chris and Val are excellent and friendly hosts and can provide you with a plethora of local information on places to visit and eat at. It was a pleasure to be able to stay with such a nice couple. The only thing to note is the Shower Room is a little tight but, you do not stay in the Shower Room and this should not put you off staying. Once again, thank you to Chris and Val especially for the excellent and plentifull breakfasts and scones.
