Best for older children who enjoy a good story and sitting down to eat, drawn in by Georgian history brought to life and a relaxed afternoon tea.

πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

The draw is a Georgian townhouse where costumed guides and local historians turn a visit into something close to stepping back in time, rounded off with an afternoon tea to linger over. Worth weighing that the atmosphere leans grown-up and genteel, so it suits children who enjoy stories and sitting to eat over those needing to run about.

β€œI had a wonderful visit to Llanelly House, starting with a fascinating guided tour followed by a lovely afternoon tea. The tour guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and very engaging, bringing the history of this beautiful historic house to life with interesting stories and facts. The tour was informative without being overwhelming and made the whole experience really enjoyable. The afternoon tea was the perfect way to finish the visit. There was a lovely selection of sandwiches, cakes and treats, all beautifully presented, and it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Overall, it was a fantastic afternoon out combining history, hospitality and delicious food. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and would highly recommend the tour and afternoon tea at Llanelly House.”

β€œThe tour of Llanelli House was amazing. It was more than a tour-it was like living in the time, with the lady of the house, in Georgian dress, informing us of her family history. The gentleman giving the history of the area, house and family was extremely knowledgeable and interacted with us, welcoming questions etc. They made a brilliant team. It was so enjoyable and informative. I thoroughly recommend it.”

Overview

A handsome Georgian townhouse, as striking inside as out, where the history arrives through people rather than placards: the lady of the house in period dress sharing her family's story, local historians filling in the detail. The afternoon tea is the gentle landing afterwards, with a good spread of sandwiches, savouries and sweet treats and staff who make a fuss of you. There's a car park and pram access on site.
