Plas Machynlleth, Grade II listed country house in Machynlleth, Wales.
Plas Machynlleth is a country house spanning multiple periods, with a grand entrance front added in 1853 and sections from the 1600s. The building now serves as a cultural venue with exhibition spaces and event halls for the community.
The property came under the ownership of the Marquesses of Londonderry following Viscount Seaham's 1846 marriage to Mary Cornelia Edwards. This connection linked an English aristocratic family to this Welsh estate for generations to come.
The mansion houses the Celtica heritage centre, which displays Welsh crafts and cultural traditions for visitors to explore. You can observe how local artistic practices are preserved and presented within the spaces.
The property is accessible as a cultural venue with exhibitions and public gatherings, so check opening times beforehand to plan your visit. The surrounding gardens provide pleasant grounds to explore at your own pace during your time there.
The residence was once called Greenfields and hosted King Edward VII during his time as Prince of Wales in the Victorian era. This royal connection from that period is now largely forgotten by most visitors to the site.
