Llanerchaeron is a small 18th
century Welsh gentry estate which has survived virtually unaltered. The
house was built by John Nash in 1795. Consisting of the house,
servant's quarters, stables, farm buildings and walled garden,
Llanerchaeron is a traditional rural estate that has remained in the
same family for ten generations.
The house was commissioned from John Nash in 1789
by Colonel William Lewis. Nash had been made bankrupt at the age of 31,
however after designing Llanerchaeron and a number of other Welsh
estate houses, he went on to grander things, designing the Brighton
Pavilion and Buckingham Palace.
In the house can be seen the collection of antiques
donated to the National Trust by Miss P.M.Ward. as well as memorabilia
from the Lewis family.
The
House and servant quarters were opened to visitors for the first time
in June 2002 following extensive restoration. There are extensive
gardens also open to the public. The cafe serves home made food and
their bread pudding is renowned.
