Description

Mostyn Lodge Hotel is a double-depth plan hotel constructed in the Tudor-Gothic style, dating to the late 18th century. The building is characterised by a three-storey, three-window front, built with finely coursed, dressed sandstone, and covered by pitched slate roofs. Stone end stacks rise from each roof pitch, featuring triple shafts. Architectural details include gables over attic windows, parapets, and a substantial moulded stone string course that runs between the first and attic storeys. The windows are flat headed, with fine ovolo-moulded mullions and transoms containing small-pane casements. Full-height bay windows extend across the ground floor, with a continuous hipped roof forming a porch over the central entrance, supported on arched braces. The entrance features late 20th-century double boarded doors with a multi-pane overlight, flanked by four-light windows with transoms. Three-light, transomed windows are present on the first floor, while two-light windows are found in the attic. The string course continues around the sides of the building. Small single lights are set between the gables of the west end on each storey. A three-light window appears on each storey of the right-hand gable, offset slightly, with the attic window lacking a transom.

A two-storey, two-window rear wing, likely a later addition, adjoins the right-hand side, with a stone end stack and raised copings to its gable. A round-headed boarded door with a small light is found at the far left, with the wing slightly projecting and featuring 20th-century casement windows.

Adjacent to the east end of the main building is a single-storey range with an attic, slightly set back from the road. A wide, round-arched entrance is located to the left of centre, leading to a rear courtyard. Two late 20th-century windows are present to the right, with at least one replacing a doorway, and there are two attic dormers with hipped roofs. A higher, square, hipped-roof block to the left, originally a smithy, has a 20th-century window on each storey. A 20th-century hipped-roofed garage sits in front, with doors to the west and a window to the front.

The rear courtyard is roughly triangular in shape and is bound to the southeast by narrow, single-storey ranges, formerly a forge and retaining a high bank; these are rendered and feature a stack and late 20th-century windows. A stone stack is located at the southeast angle of the former smithy. The east end of the main range has a 20th-century casement to the left of the attic storey, with a fire-escape door positioned below, and a single light between the gables. Behind the main range is a steel fire-escape staircase leading to an attic doorway, with a large mullioned and transomed window below the first floor. A mullioned two-light window is located to the left of the attic. Single-storey, flat-roofed blocks are at ground level. The rear wing has a lean-to on the east side and a round-headed doorway, above which are three-over-six-pane sash windows.

The interior has been altered as a result of conversion to a hotel.
