Venue History: The Glen-Yr-Afon House Hotel was 36 years old as a business in March 2010. Throughout the whole of this time it has been in the continuous ownership of Peter and Jan Clarke since it’s purchase as a country house in 1973. The original house was built in 1868 for a Richard Satchell whose occupation on the conveyance is given as a draper. The grounds to the house included the field next door in which the hotel extension now lies (purchased back in 1991).

Wedding Trivia:
BAD LUCK
Seeing an open grave, pig, or lizard on the way to the ceremony, or hearing a crow after dawn on the morning of the wedding are all thought to be omens of bad luck. Catching a glimpse of a monk or a nun is also thought to be a omen of misfortune because of their association with poverty and chastity.
