Inspector comments
"Inventive modern Welsh cooking."
Overview
The Firecat comprises two separate rooms which have retained their original 17th-century features including exposed beams, slate flooring and large open fireplaces. It makes for a characterful backdrop for the imaginative modern British cooking that utilises homegrown produce as well as Welsh meats and seafood in dishes that are big on flavour.

About the area
The county of Gwynedd is home to most of the Snowdonia National Park – including the wettest spot in Britain, an arête running up to Snowdon’s summit that receives an average annual rainfall of 4,473mm. With its mighty peaks, rivers and strong Welsh heritage (it has the highest proportion of Welsh-speakers in all of Wales), it’s always been an extremely popular place to visit and live
