Bryn Beryl Hospital (Welsh: Ysbyty Bryn Beryl) is a health facility in Pwllheli, Gwynedd, Wales. It is managed by the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board.

History

The hospital was established as the Pwllheli Cottage Hospital in 1924.[1] It was extended by the erection of two wards to create a naval hospital to support the naval training facility HMS Glendower during the Second World War.[2] After it joined the National Health Service in 1948, a prefabricated ward block for geriatric patients was added in 1974.[1] The new Llynfor Ward was opened in newly-refurbished facilities in July 2019.[3]
