Bodelwyddan Castle, North Wales

A Grade II-listed Victorian folly with spectacular views of the North Wales coastline

A lavishly magnificent Victorian Folly peering out over the spectacular North Wales coast, Bodelwyddan Castle has enjoyed many guises. Variously a folly, a house, a military establishment and a school, today it’s home to the National Portrait Gallery. It’s also as welcoming and relaxing a hotel as any you’ll find.

Perched on the Clwydian Hills, from Bodelwyddan Castle you can explore both the impressive Welsh countryside and rugged coastline.
