An air of elegance and calm informality pervades this exquisitely furnished Welsh country house set in 50 acres of parkland. Dining by candlelight in the restaurant is a memorable experience, and the cuisine has won several prestigious awards for its excellence. Suites and bedrooms are delightfully appointed, each having a private bathroom, television, direct-dial telephone and period furniture.

Excellent salmon and trout fishing is available on the rivers Wye and Irfon, as well as the hotel’s own picturesque lake. Tennis, croquet, clay pigeon shooting and a nine-hole golf course are all on the grounds. There are four 18-hole courses in the vicinity. The new gym and spa complex is situated by the lake, providing an inspired setting for those wishing to unwind.
