More Information...

Llanelly House has been described as one of the finest early 18th Century town houses in Wales. That description pre-dated archaeological work and investigative contracts which revealed the full splendour of the original design and a wealth of panelling and paintings which greatly enhances its importance.

The house was substantially re-built in 1714 by Sir Thomas Stepney. The building fell into massive decline, was derelict and at a critical stage by 2009. The Trust, Carmarthenshire Heritage Regeneration Trust, successfully applied for and secured full funding to restore this Georgian gem.

Full site mobilization commenced in 2011 to undertake the restoration works, with the doors opening to the public on the 25th October 2013.
