Discover the Epic Landscapes of North Wales staying at Grade I listed Bodysgallen Hall

Wales remains relatively undiscovered even though it is easier to reach than many think. North Wales is connected to London by train in just three hours. The epic landscapes of this part of Wales offer visitors a unique travel experience with a distinct culture. 

Bodysgallen Hall is located within 220 acres of gardens and parkland. The gardens are often referred to as the finest of any hotel in Wales. The hotel offers a front row experience to vibrant Llandudno, the Victorian seaside town with a history that goes back to the Bronze Age. The hotel also offers wonderful views of World Heritage Conwy with its rich maritime past.   

Visit Wales promote Llandudno as follows: “Holidaymakers have been coming to Llandudno for generations, and it’s still the best all-round destination for every member of your family. There’s a proper Victorian pier, historic castles and farm parks full of cute animals.” Llandudno is only a ten minute drive from Bodysgallen Hall. 

Conwy Castle is one of Wales’ UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Visitors should climb to the top of one of Conwy Castle’s eight towers to get a stunning view over Conwy and the surrounding area. Investigate the inner and outer wards with their many rooms and explore the castle walls with their 21 towers that completely enclose Conwy town.

Winter is a wonderful time to combine cosy moments indoors at Bodysgallen Hall and also outdoors exploring 220 acres of gardens and parkland.  Bodysgallen Hall is an award-winning hotel home to one of North Wales’ finest restaurants awarded 3 AA Rosettes serving traditional Welsh cuisine. The hotel is also home to a spa with an indoor swimming pool. The hotel offers 31 spacious bedrooms, a combination of rooms in the main house and cottages within the grounds. 

The gardens at the hotel are both manicured and natural. The gardens include a rare 17th century parterre of box hedges filled with sweet-scented herbs, a rockery with a cascade, a walled rose garden, and several follies. Several woodland walks enhance the outdoor experience. Search out the Gothic Tower within the woodland and the Obelisk located on top of Ffrith Hill. An additional highlight is that of a kitchen garden providing the freshest of ingredients for the dining menus. There is also an abundance of seasonal foliage for the in-house arrangements.  

While staying at Bodysgallen Hall, take the opportunity to visit other National Trust properties nearby including Bodnant Garden, a historic Grade 1 listed horticultural gem. Garden fans are further in luck as there are many gardens locally to discover and Bodysgallen Hall offer the perfect base to visit many of the other beautiful gardens participating in the National Garden Scheme in North and West Wales.

Also during the stay, discover Welsh Whisky with a tour of the Penderyn Whisky Distillery in Llandudno. Learn about the history of Penderyn, how whisky is distilled, the water being brought down from its source deep within the Great Orme, and then aged in oak barrels giving the whisky its unique authentic flavour. You are promised a fascinating tour from guides who are passionate about their craft.

Bodysgallen Hall has been sympathetically restored by Historic House Hotels since 1980 and was given to the National Trust in 2008. It is the ideal hotel to discover the uniqueness of Wales.
