Mikä on kiinteistön historia?
Once the home of Baron Gwydir, Earl of Ancaster, Elen's Castle formed part of his Welsh Estate. Named after the daughter of Llywelyn the Great who was born in the castle here in the village of Dolwyddelan. The holtel was sold to the Baron's gamekeeper when it became a hotel which specialised in hunting parties. We have a roman well on the property purported to have healing properties.
