Our Inspector's view
Palé Hall was originally built in 1871 by industrialist Henry Robertson with the instruction that ‘no expense should be spared’. The result was a grand Victorian mansion that has played host to many important figures including Churchill and Queen Victoria; the bath and bed used by Victoria are still in place today. Fully restored, this interesting house has a wealth of original features including a hydro-electric system powered by water from the nearby River Dee – it continues to provide electricity for the whole property. The comfortable bedrooms are individually decorated and furnished. Afternoon tea, in the sumptuous drawing room, is a must but make sure you leave room for dinner, a truly wonderful experience. In-room spa treatments are available to guests.

About the area
Discover Gwynedd
The county of Gwynedd is home to most of the Snowdonia National Park – including the wettest spot in Britain, an arête running up to Snowdon’s summit that receives an average annual rainfall of 4,473mm. With its mighty peaks, rivers and strong Welsh heritage (it has the highest proportion of Welsh-speakers in all of Wales), it’s always been an extremely popular place to visit and live. The busiest part is around Snowdon; around 750,000 people climb, walk or ride the train to the summit each year.
Also in Gwynedd is the Llyn Peninsula, a remote part of Wales sticking 30 miles out into the Irish Sea. At the base of the peninsula is Porthmadog, a small town linked to Snowdonia by two steam railways – the Welsh Highland Railway and the Ffestiniog Railway. Other popular places are Criccieth, with a castle on its headland overlooking the beach, Pwllheli, and Abersoch and the St Tudwal Islands. Elsewhere, the peninsula is all about wildlife, tranquillity, and ancient sacred sites. Tre’r Ceiri hill fort is an Iron Age settlement set beside the coastal mountain of Yr Eifl, while Bardsey Island, at the tip of the peninsula, was the site of a fifth-century Celtic monastery.
