About the home

A fine, spacious and luxurious TUDOR MANOR HOUSE, - so come and stay for a week and "live like a lord" in style - almost in a film set but with wonderful bathrooms and kitchen and it is warm! This very special house has survived virtually unaltered from the reign of Charles II. A Grade II* listed 17century house, with the earliest part of the house dating from Tudor times. One of the first of the "transitional hall houses" in Wales. The house has four bedrooms all with wonderful FOUR POSTER BEDS, throughout this fine historic house the furniture befits the period; a superb, well equipped kitchen for cooking a really special dinner party - perhaps for a 40th or a 60th birthday party.

Accommodation

Sleeps 8 visitors in 4 bedrooms:

Lovingly restored over the past four years, this delightful Welsh 17th century manor house, sleeps 8 persons, in 4 double bedrooms. The traditional farmhouse-style kitchen has been exceptionally well equipped while still retaining its historic character .A new black oil- fired Aga with a double oven, which is a dream to cook on, is set in a recess that once would have housed the original range. There is also an electric hob and oven, large Smeg fridge and a freezer, a microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker etc. (upstairs in a laundry room there is a washing machine with tumble dryer).

The dining area has a long oak refectory table to comfortably seat 10 people, an antique Welsh Dresser and court cupboard. The lovely flag stone floors through- out the downstairs of this deceptively large 17th century manor house have under floor heating, run from a new oil-fired boiler located under the stairs. There is a Snug/Study with easy chairs and a Freeview TV and DVD. Woodburning stove.

The magnificent main sitting room is superbly furnished with antique Welsh oak furniture, traditional, but very comfortable sofa and easy chairs. One wall is dominated by a large early 17thc Flemish tapestry, which gives the room enormous atmosphere and warmth. The massive fireplace with great stone hearth, the bread oven, ancient oak lintel with open chimney makes this room a lovely place to relax. There is a wide entrance hall leading through the house to the original oak staircase - dating from 1680. The whole of the ground and first floors of the house have been decorated and furnished primarily with genuine furniture of the 17c and 18c to re-create a wonderful atmosphere of another age.

There is a downstairs cloakroom with handbasin and toilet.

The original Jacobean staircase, which has been expertly renovated and repaired, leads from the inner hall to the four bedrooms on the first floor.

Historic unique property

The bedlinen and furnishings are wonderfully well co-ordinated with the historic feel of this unique property - with the original oak floors, ancient beams and lime washed stone walls; the under-floor heating keeps this large house warm even on the coldest of days. The house has over an acre of grounds surrounding it, along side the River Dulais, which are being returned to their former glory by professional landscaping. The area immediately around the house enclosed by garden walls is currently being planted as a traditional "cottage" garden, while to the rear of the property, a traditional "formal" 17c fruit orchard and arbours are planned.

"Thank you for a lovely stay at Neuadd Fawr Llanwrda (NEUFA), we had an absolutely wonderful time. The property was fantastic, full of character and immaculate. It gave us a brilliant base to explore the Brecon Beacons and loved relaxing in front of the roaring fire with a glass of wine after climbing the surrounding hills. Pen y Fan was a must as (when the rain cleared) gave us stunning views of the area. " Belinda.
