Penrhyn Castle
Penrhyn Castle is an astonishing neo-Norman fantasy built in the early 19th century, rising above the Menai Strait with all the drama of a genuine medieval fortress. Its vast interiors, including the extraordinary stone staircase and state bedroom, were designed to impress on a monumental scale, while its history is also intertwined with the wealth of the North Wales slate industry. Set between Snowdonia and the coast, the grounds offer views that are nothing short of spectacular.
