Furnace Tea Room

Anglesey & the North Coast


Set in the former stables of Furnace Farm at Bodnant Welsh Food, these 18th-century tearooms are ideal for a breakfast of fresh Welsh cakes, a lunch of cawl (lamb-and-vegetable stew) with Bodnant-baked bread or, between 2.30pm and 4.30pm, afternoon tea. Lavish use is made of the farm's own produce, including freshly churned butter from the dairy.
