Bed and Breakfast Description

Our terraced gardens offer magnificent views across Llangollen and the valley to Castle Dinas Bran and the mountains beyond

Inside Oakmere the original Victorian splendour is reflected in the polished pitch pine and period furniture, all of which combine to produce a relaxing atmosphere of spacious comfort.
The private drive to Oakmere is well signposted and there is ample parking within the grounds.

At the front of the house there is ample private parking for Oakmere residents.

Accommodation for guests is either "ensuite" or with private facilities (bathroom or shower). All rooms are centrally heated and have a colour TV and a radio clock/alarm. Bedroom 4 below features a French 19th century "Louis IV" double bed in carved walnut under a mahogany "ceil de lit".

Tea/Coffee making facilities are provided in all bedrooms and there is a choice of double, twin bedded or family rooms, all with matching decor and period furniture.
The mahogany canopy bed of Bedroom 3 is shown here together with matching oak lined Edwardian mahogany wardrobe.

Twin bedded ensuite rooms are also available. Bedroom 6 opposite has a restored fireplace, Victorian satin walnut wardrobe & dresser and two seater settee.
The bedroom window looks onto a Panoramic view of Castle Dinas Bran and the Eglwyseg & Minera Mountains beyond.

Bedroom 5 is another twin bedded, ensuite room with two restored 1930's Canadian "Sledge or Sleigh" beds in mahogany. The view from the window offers a panoramic sweep of Llangollen, from the Horseshoe Pass to the Castle of Dinas Bran, the famed resting place of the "Holy Grail".

Local Attractions

The River Dee, looking downstream towards Llangollen bridge, one of the "Seven Wonders of Wales". The original bridge is supposed to have been constructed by Henry 1st and believed reconstructed in 1346 by Dr. John Trevor, Bishop of Saint Asaph. The Victoria Promenade can be clearly seen and offers fine views of both the Bridge and the River Dee.

Llangollen proudly boasts a steam railway and the Head of the Shropshire Union Canal at the Horseshoe Falls on the River Dee. Horse drawn canal boats provide trips to the falls and motorised long boats offer rides over the 120ft high Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. Plas Newydd, the home and grounds of the famous "Ladies of Llangollen" is a few minutes walk from Oakmere.

Plas Newydd, the home and grounds of Lady Eleanor Butler and Miss Sarah Ponsonby after they left their homes in Ireland in 1780. Upon their arrival, Plas Newydd was a small unpretentious cottage which, over the years, the Ladies extended and added carved panels and much carved oak. In the distance can just be seen the ruins of Dinas Bran Castle. A concealed gate in our boundary wall leads from our garden to Plas Newydd.

The Horseshoe Falls in the River Dee, built by Thomas Telford to supply the Llangollen and Ellesmere Canals. Built several miles upstream of the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, the level of the river above the falls still controls the flow of water into the canal system which links the three Rivers, Severn, Dee and Mersey
Canoeing, White water rafting, Hang-Gliding, Pony Trekking, Mountain Biking (cycle hire and guides available), Clay Pigeon Shooting, Rock Climbing, Golf and Trout fishing on the spectacular River Dee are all available within easy reach of Llangollen.
Walkers and Ramblers can enjoy breathtaking views from the 1400ft Horseshoe Pass and the 13th Century remains of Castle Dinas Bran, or explore the ruins of Valle Crucis Abbey; whilst the more ambitious can tackle Offa's Dyke as it climbs the Eglwyseg Mountain.
 

B&B Location

From the main A5 traffic lights in the centre of Llangollen, follow the A5 towards Shrewsbury/Oswestry. Oakmere is situated up a private driveway, on the right hand side, some 300 yards from these traffic lights. Look for black topped white gateposts with black and gold gates and the Oakmere B&B sign.
