Calum Milne, managing director of Llangoed Limited and The Swan at Hay Ltd, said: “His appointment is an indication of the quality rather than the style of food that customers can expect at The Swan. It will offer another price point for our customers and an alternative dining experience."

and The Bath Priory in Bath as well as The Queensberry also in Bath. Calum Milne said: “Jerry spent nearly three years at Llangoed Hall and I am delighted that Nick has nurtured his talent.

Commenting on his appointment, Jerry Adam said: “It’s an exciting challenge to become head chef and I am looking forward to cooking for local people and visitors. They can look forward to homely as well as exciting and innovative food and I plan to expand the menu with my own dishes in the coming months.” The Swan at Hay Hotel is currently undergoing a £1 million refurbishment and is the third hotel purchased by Llangoed Limited.
