The decorations are up! Plus some posters to let people know when we're opening. Trouble is, I don't think the 'Coming in March 2015' is very visible from the road!!!

It appears that Facebook does not allow you to change your username for a page more than once, so my attempts to change this page name to 'Olif' which is our intended name has failed miserably! So I've decided to keep this page open for people monitoring our chaotic progress and I'll open a new page for Olif closer to opening time!

What's in a name?

'Gwesty Betws' is at present called 'Plas Derwen'. We're struggling to get access to the www.plasderwen.com website and another Plas Derwen has the co.uk domain name. There's also a Craig Derwen and Garth Derwen in the village (Derwen means oak of which there is a lot in Betws!!) which has already led to confusion with deliveries.

We had originally hoped to call the place Gwesty Betws ('Gwesty' means guest house / hotel) but then thought we should maybe stick with the historic name. Plas Derwen has a 4.5 out of 5 TripAdvisor rating for the B&B but only 3.5 on the restaurant side. The reviews for each seem to be mixed up too. The restaurant reviews are also very hit and miss.

So the question is, do we change the name, to distance ourselves from the previous business and change our name to Gwesty Betws or stick with the traditional name?

Comments very much welcomed!!!!

We're en route to our new home. Exciting times are ahead. I see Champagne in my immediate future. And a head-crushing hangover tomorrow.

Time for Champagne I think!!

We're rewatching 'The Restaurant Man' and getting quite excited about the prospect of providing 'Welsh Tapas'. No don't look at us like that - it really is a thing!

There are very few tapas bars in Wales but they do exist. Not many focusing on using Welsh ingredients though so hopefully we'll lead the way in North Wales!
