This month, our lucky winner and guest will head to Bodysgallen Hall and Spa for a relaxing spa break with gardens and Snowdonia as a backdrop
Picture a winding road, climbing up Pydew Mountain, cutting through 200 acres of woodland. Tall chimneys appearing through the trees, a hint at the magnificent proportions of this 600-year-old manor house.
Inside Bodysgallen Hall and Spa you’re rewarded with a romantic interior straight out of a novel; a myriad of winding corridors – imagine the centuries of whispered conversations that must have been held here. The oak-panelled hall and brooding drawing room, huge fireplaces and dark wood; it’s opulence from a bygone age. Climb the narrow time-worn stairs within the 13th-century tower, believed to have been the watchtower for the construction of Conwy Castle. Spot an obelisk, the Great Orme and Snowdonia further in the distance.
With feet on terra firma meander through the restored 17th-century parterre, admiring the lily pond and rose gardens. Inside a converted farmhouse you’ll find the well-appointed health and beauty spa, complete with its magnificent 50ft pool.
Nearby, the UNESCO-listed medieval Conwy Castle sits within the confines of Britain’s most intact walled town. The wild beauty of Snowdonia National Park is also a must-see. And not to be missed is Llandudno, with its 19th-century pier.
