Plas Newydd Opening

Plas Newydd house and tea rooms has now re-opened.

Visitors will once again have the chance to learn the fascinating story of the Ladies of Llangollen and how they ran away from Ireland to set up home together in North Wales. Their extraordinary gothicised home will be open for visitors to explore and see how the Ladies turned a simple Welsh cottage into a fantasy of oak carvings and stained glass.

The tearooms will also reopen and will offer visitors a range of lunches, cakes and afternoon teas.

There has also been much work going on in the gardens at Plas Newydd over the winter including continued work on the restoration of the shrubbery, which is such an important part of the garden. As well as the new addition of ornamental trees throughout the garden which have been planted this winter. Having also received a very generous, and much appreciated donation from Amanda Ponsbsy, we have been able to purchase trees to finish the restoration of the shrubbery, as well as other plants and shrubs for the garden.

Neil Rowlands, Head Gardener at Plas Newydd, says what visitors can expect to see this Spring:

‘The gardens at the moment, with spring just around the corner will look delightful with superb displays of crocus, and towards the end of this month a stunning display of native primroses.

Further on into the season, the garden comes into its own, with all the perennial plants showing to their full glory.

The parterre will also look stunning, with the lavender and old roses in full bloom in June.’

Open 30th March – 30th September every day 10.30am – 5.00pm.
