SELLERS from across North Wales and the Marches will be coming to Llangollen later this month for the town’s newest antiques fair.

Taking place at the Hand Hotel (pictured below) on Sunday, March 26, the fair will showcase the wares a select number of dealers from the region.

Staged in two rooms of the historic hotel in the town centre, there will be a wide range of items on sale including quality antiques, collectables including militaria and coins, decorative and vintage homewares.

The fair opens from 9.30am until 3.30pm and there will be refreshments available in the hotel.

Organiser Rob Bellis, of Nook Antiques in Llangollen, has already had a positive response ahead of the inaugural event.

He said: “We’ve had a great deal of interest and are now fully booked in terms of stalls so there will be plenty on offer for collectors or those looking for something interesting or quirky for their home.

“We’ve got some great sellers coming from the west coast of Wales who will be bringing a range of good antiques, some good local dealers, including a couple who make regular trips over to France to source their very interesting stock, and a number of specialists in things like militaria, treen, linens and coins.

“The Hand is a great venue, with its own gardens overlooking the River Dee so it should make for a very good day.”

Admission to the fair is 50p per person.

Parking at the hotel is limited so patrons are asked to use the nearby public car parks when appropriate.
