A GRADE I listed mansion in Gwynedd has been put on the market.

Plas Glynllifon, near the village of Llandwrog, is available via Sidney Phillips for £2million on a freehold basis.

It lies just off the A499 between Pwllheli and Caernarfon, and is located within Parc Glynllifon, a large country park which remains open to the public.

The property once belonged to Lord Newborough and was built in the early 1800s.

It was originally a playground for the rich and aristocracy, including hosting a grand ball held by King Charles.

Set in grounds of roughly 16 acres, across three storeys under pitched and flat roofs, it comprises 102 rooms.

The property also has its own car park, brook, and bat cave.

Sidney Phillips said of Plas Glynllifon: “Much investment and renovation is needed to bring this mansion to sustainable use, but offers the potential for conversion to a luxury wedding venue, spa, hotel or restaurant, subject to the relevant planning permissions.”
