The Black Lion Hotel ; The Story 

​

Purchased from Enterprise Inns In 2011 the Black Lion is a grade 2 listed building set at the 'top of the hill' in the seaside village of New Quay, West Wales. Its stands overlooking the bay just minutes walk down to the harbour.

​

After purchase, the property was closed to start full renovation work throughout, re configuring the existing interior of the building, adding an extension to make a sea facing dining room, bringing the hotel rooms into the 21st century with crisp white bedding and a modern feel, finally reopening the public bar area In March 2013, and the hotel a few weeks later, this is where the Black Lion started and where it is today.

​

The Black Lion Hotel is a 9 Bedroom Hotel & Public House With Spacious En-suite Rooms, 5 Of Which Have Sea Views Two Of Which From the 1st and 2nd Floors Giving You Breathtaking Views Out Over Cardigan bay
