About this property

The Welsh Chateau - Eleven Bedroom House, Sleeps 23

For a group of adventure-loving holidaymakers, this incredible manor house and garden cottage offer the ideal base to explore South Wales. Begin your adventure with a trip to the stunning Gower beaches, Britain’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. After a day on the beach, treat yourself to a meal at the Michelin-starred restaurant in Oxwich Bay. The nearby Brecon Beacons National Park is home to Pen Y Fan, the highest peak in southern Britain at 886 metres. Hike through its peaks and valleys, or explore the iconic ‘Waterfall Country’, where you’ll find Britain’s largest collection of publicly accessible waterfalls. History buffs will love a visit to Carreg Cennen Castle, perched dramatically on a limestone cliff and complete with its very own dungeon. Alternatively, take a trip to the National Showcaves of Wales for an underground adventure. For those seeking thrills on two wheels, South Wales is a world-class mountain biking destination.
Step through the grand oak doors and into the vestibule, where a high ceiling creates an impressive first impression as you enter. The bespoke kitchen is a chef’s dream, with extensive cabinetry and an Aga set within a reclaimed stone inglenook. Glass doors open to the spectacular indoor heated swimming pool, allowing you to enjoy a dip at any time of the year. The dining room exudes elegance, featuring original teak sash windows with shutters that add to the room’s timeless beauty. The drawing room, with its views of the front lawn, showcases an ornately carved fireplace and a secret door that leads to the library. The expansive master suite offers a private retreat with a Juliette balcony that overlooks the garden, ornamental pond, and folly. It also boasts a walk-in wardrobe/dressing room and a luxurious en-suite. For wine enthusiasts, the ancient 15th-century wine cellar is ready for storing a range of wines during your stay. The guest bedrooms are located on the first and second floors, accessed by a beautiful Elizabethan staircase, overlooked by an original stained-glass window. The first floor boasts five bedrooms, three of which have en-suites, while the second floor offers another bathroom and four additional bedrooms, one with an en-suite. The rooms share a family bathroom featuring bespoke units and a luxurious sunken bath. From one of the top-floor rooms, you can even glimpse the sea on the horizon. For larger groups, you can book additional rooms in a cottage in the garden. The heart of the cottage is a bespoke fitted oak kitchen with a traditional style rangemaster oven that adds warmth and character. Gather around the wood burner in the lounge after a day of exploring and unwind in this inviting space. The light-filled conservatory is the perfect spot to relax, offering a seamless connection to the surrounding greenery. The cottage offers two comfortable bedrooms – one double and one twin with versatile zip-and-link beds.
Head outside and explore the sprawling grounds, where you'll find a tennis court, or wander through the enchanting Italianate garden featuring a tranquil pond and a charming domed folly. Discover the hidden walled garden with a lily pond and roam over 100 acres of lush countryside. Ample off-street parking is provided.
