An aristocrats playground
A grade I listed building formerly belonging to Lord Newborough that once held the ball of the investiture of The Prince of Wales, now King Charles III.
The Plas, or manor house, and its 16 acres of gardens are privately owned and sit within the expansive Parc Glynllifon grounds. As you explore the park you’ll see the Plas from multiple angles but perhaps our favourite is from the water fountain where you can enjoy a picnic on the lawns that stretch all the way from the cascading waterfalls to the house itself.
Protected gardens
Surrounding the building itself are spectacular gardens and woodland, which have been designated Historical Garden status (grade I) and a Site of Special Scientific Interest by Cadw and Natural Resources Wales.
We encourage you to explore the many rare species of trees and plants, many over 150 years old, as you wander along the 8 miles of paths. Touch the giant redwoods, and enjoy the sound of birds chirping and the stream flowing. See if you can spot the wooden carved animals as you go!
