This impressive country house, built in 1890 as the village school, nestles on the edge of a delightful small Welsh village amidst open countryside, rolling hills and with delightful scenic views. Following a 4 year renovation project to convert the property from a vacant 9 bedroom care home, the property now provides spacious yet comfortable accommodation for up to 10 guests. A 20 minute drive to the North Wales coastal towns of Abergele and Colwyn Bay, and onto Llandudno and Angelsey. A 30 minute drive in the other direction gets you across to Betws-y-Coed, and into the Snowdonia National Park.
