Quintessentially British Afternoon Tea
Every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday


A Grade II listed country house hotel near Caernarfon, whose restaurant planted its own vineyard in 2023 and uses the vines in its cooking.
Gwinllan Plas Dinas is the Gunroom Restaurant's own vineyard, planted by the restaurant's team in 2023. The restaurant is in Plas Dinas Country House, near Caernarfon, and the vines are part of its cooking. A Plas Dinas Vineyard verjus has been served with cod cheek, cauliflower and raisin, and cuttings from the vineyard are used, with vines from Gwinllan Conwy, to smoke the butter. The same kitchen keeps a garden for its menus, and elderberry from the estate goes with the pigeon.
Plas Dinas does not describe a tasting, a walk-in visit or a tour of the vineyard. Visitors come to dine at the Gunroom Restaurant, where tables for dinner and afternoon tea are booked in advance, or to stay in the house.
The house is at the end of a driveway nearly a mile long, and Gatekeepers Holiday Cottage stands at the entrance. Helicopters may land on the main front lawn, with clearance from Caernarfon Airport, 2.4 miles west. The hotel will book a local taxi from a surrounding train station on request.
