and Restaurant Lampeter Wales Ty Mawr Mansion Gay Friendly Country House Hotel and Restaurant, Cilcennin, Lampeter, Ceredigion, Wales  www.tymawrmansion.co.uk Ty Mawr Mansion is a magnificent Grade II listed Georgian house sat in 12 acres of wooded grounds in the hamlet of Cilcennin in the Aeron Valley, betwixt the Brecon Beacons and the rugged beauty of the Cardigan Bay coast. Inside, the house is absolutely fabulous with oak panelling and magnificent period furniture. The suites are huge and beautifully presented with voluminous drapes framing the exquisite Georgian windows and the views beyond. The bathrooms are cavernous and nothing less than temples to modernity, with spa baths and monsoon-like showers. Ty Mawr boasts a luxurious in-house 27-seat cinema showing high definition movies with surround sound every evening. The house is unashamedly lavish with a blend of contemporary and traditional furnishings that is simply delicious. Talking of which, the food here really is just to die for and would put many a Kensington High Street restaurant to shame. And amongst all this luxury, splendour and comfort, it is Martin and Catherine's ethos of providing all the magnificence of Ty Mawr Mansion without an ounce of starchiness that makes their idyll so very special. It is little wonder that between them, they have won more accolades and awards for food and hospitality than you can shake a stick at. Simply perfect! |
