The border between Wales and England is one steeped in both history and legend. With its castles and market towns there is plenty to explore all within a hour of the hotel.
With more than 600 castles in Wales it is often called the ‘Land of Castles’, more per square mile than anywhere in the world. Some have been lived in for a thousand years, while others are ruins.
Both Powis and Chirk castle are the closest to the hotel both within an hours drive and both with beautiful gardens,
The quaint market towns of Welshpool and Oswestry are the nearest towns to Lake Vyrnwy both with their own unique charms.
A little further a field is the historic town of Shrewsbury, birth place of Charles Darwin, with the town centre lined with half timber Tudor buildings.
