A wonderful day for history at The Plas yesterday! 🕰️ We were thrilled to have a visit from Ysgol Eifionydd as they explored Percy Bysshe Shelley's time here as part of their school curriculum. 🏫 It’s always a privilege to bring local history to life!

Did you know he finished his first epic poem 'Queen Mab' right here at The Plas and we even have a connection to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein? 🧟‍♂️

Howard even sent the teacher a detailed account and investigation of an author and scholars' thoughts on the 'supposed assassination attempt' that took place here in February 1813! 🕵️‍♂️ Was it real or a dramatic invention? The debate continues!

And for a fun twist: Shelley claimed to be a staunch vegetarian, but was actually caught trying meat at a local hostelry! 🍖

Who knew Shelley had so many intriguing secrets right on our doorstep?

Guest Review Paul & Nicola. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

We’ve had an excellent 5 Bubble Review on Tripadvisor, from lovely guests Paul & Nicola, who stayed in the William Madocks Room for 3 night’s earlier in the month.

Here is their review:

If there was a 6-Star Rating, it would fit here.

From first contact it was friendly professionalism, the room was fantastic but not just the room the whole place is magical, like stepping onto the set of Downton Abbey, but more upper class!

The breakfasts were spot on; we even had an afternoon tea served in the drawing room!

Bet Lenny Henry never had that in his hotel chain!

If we ever in this area again we will 100% be back!

Miss Hilda's Bedroom.

Mary Hilda, known as ‘Hilda’ was born here at The Plas in 1855. Daughter of John Whitehead Greaves founder of Llechwedd Slate Caverns and aunt of Sir Clough Williams- Ellis the creator of world famous Portmeirion. Known for her generosity and kindness she made several changes to the house which are evident today including a mural of ‘The Triumph of Neptune’ commissioned no less than by Sir Clough himself.

Famed for her legendary afternoon tea - Guests can enjoy ‘Miss Hilda’s Classic Edwardian Cream Tea’ in the Drawing Room or on the Veranda during the warmer months.

Miss Hilda’s with its quaint Half Tester – Be wrapped up and cossetted by her old world charm whilst enjoying spectacular views over the Glaslyn Estuary to the sea and mountains beyond.

Guest Review: Greg & Jo 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

We’ve just had a fantastic review from Jane & Adam from England who stayed in Miss Hilda’s for 2 night’s earlier in the month!

Here’s what Jane had to say...

Sumptuously comfortable and peaceful stay.

Gorgeous comfortable historic house in very peaceful natural environment with lovely elevated view towards the estuary.

Mark was a most considerate and attentive front of house host. Every detail was attended to.

The breakfast was delicious. The afternoon tea in the drawing room indulgent.

I have come home and had to buy a butter curler inspired by our stay!

All was excellent.
