Nanteos, Grade I listed country house hotel in Llanfarian, Wales
The mansion exhibits English Palladian architecture with fourteen baroque-style windows, three stories, and a symmetrical seven-bay south elevation with sandstone details.
Built between 1739 and 1757 for the Powell family, Nanteos incorporated materials from an earlier structure mentioned in records dating back to 1666.
The estate includes a medieval drinking bowl known as the Nanteos Cup, which local traditions connected to supernatural healing properties.
The property extends across parkland entered through a western lodge, featuring additional structures such as kennels, stables, and a circular dovecote.
The name Nanteos originates from Welsh words meaning brook and nightingale, reflecting the natural elements surrounding the mansion.
