Oozing elegance and luxury, this 18-person manor house built by sea captain Lewis Holland Thomas is steeped in history and boasts unique features such as a spa, games room, cinema room and regal decor. Host an unforgettable break with a group of friends or family in this 19th-century property on the pristine coastline of Snowdonia National Park – where you’ll have quaint towns, sandy beaches and scenic hiking trails within easy reach.

You’ll be wowed by this grand nine-bed property from the moment you step inside by its chandelier lighting, stained glass windows, antique furnishings and generous size. Spend cosy evenings by the warming wood burner in the stylish and bright lounge with tones of blue and tasteful decor surrounding the Chesterfield sofas. Take some alone time in the snug while admiring the estuary views, or get together for some pool in the games room with a wooden beamed ceiling. Spoil yourself with a spa afternoon in the sauna, steam room and indoor spa pool clad in Carrara marble. Grab some popcorn for an evening in the cinema room or play some games on the consoles in the gaming area. There is also a conservatory, a spacious kitchen with a dining area, and nine bedrooms with ensuites – one with a freestanding nickel bath. Outside is a courtyard with furniture.

16 Ladies over 40's social group, we had a great time in this peaceful wonderful property with its stunning views. Each day some went out exploring the area, while others made full use of the spa facilities. The house was big enough for us to all have space but also come together in evenings and dinner.

This is a superb property in a quiet location with wonderful views. You do need a car to get to shops and restaurants. All bedrooms are en suite, although the over bath showers can be an issue for older visitors. The kitchen is generous and we managed a party of 12 elderly relatives without any issues.

The 2 downstairs bedrooms are ideal for those who don't want to tackle stairs, but it does leave the basement inaccessible to them. Hide
