Gyrn Castle, Grade II listed mansion in Llanasa, Wales.
Gyrn Castle is a Grade II listed mansion with an asymmetrical three-storey structure built from coursed stone and topped with slate. The property contains a picture gallery with a five-bay roof supported by decorative arched braces.
The property developed from an earlier structure dating to the late 1600s, which was substantially transformed between 1817 and 1824. This major redesign was carried out by John Douglas, a cotton manufacturer who reshaped the estate.
The entrance hall displays woodwork in Jacobean style that reflects craftsmanship from that period. These details shape how the interior feels and remind visitors of the quality work that went into furnishing the rooms.
The estate can be used for events and offers self-catering accommodation for overnight stays. The grounds invite leisurely walks through the lakes and gardens to explore the landscape.
The 2000-acre grounds feature five lakes created by widening the Afon-y-garth stream into a designed landscape. Rhododendron plantings and wooded paths wind through the property, creating a naturalistic setting developed over time.
