Nestling in rich woodland, high above Fishguard Harbour, overlooking some of the most beautiful coastline in Wales, is the Fishguard Bay Hotel. In 1971 the hotel was once again the head quarters of a film company during the making of Dylan Thomas' "Under Milk Wood" with stars like Glynis Johns, Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole and many others in residence. In 1974 a major building programme costing over million and taking two years to complete was started. This work provided eighteen new modern bedrooms, all with bathrooms, new kitchens, new ballroom seating three hundred guests, new lounge, snooker room and a new office area. Since re-opening in 1967 the hotel has established itself with three stars (RAC) and is internationally recommended and extensively used by a growing number of regular visitors for holiday and business. In 1979 the hotel was designated as a Building of Historic and Architectural Interest.
