Gwydir Castle
The 16th-century Gwydir Castle technically isn’t a hotel, but a family home that rents out two bedrooms as part of a tiny bed and breakfast operation between April and October. Naturally a castle this old comes with its share of inhabitants who never left, like an unknown young woman who’s most often spotted in the North Wing and the corridor between the Hall of Meredith and the Great Chamber. While this ghost generally doesn’t bother visitors, she is accompanied by the smell of something rotting. Former resident Sir John Wynn has also stuck around, and is perhaps connected to the young woman. According to his story, he seduced a maid, then murdered her and buried her in a castle wall after she became pregnant. He’s been spotted on the spiral staircase leading to the Great Chamber. Overnight guests should also be on the lookout for a phantom dog whose bones were found in the cellar.
