Home of the Marquess of Anglesey, with spectacular views of Snowdonia

Set on the shores of the Menai Strait amidst breathtakingly beautiful scenery, this elegant house was redesigned by James Wyatt in the 18th century. The 1930s restyled interior is famous for its Rex Whistler association, containing his largest painting and exhibition.

A military museum contains relics from the 1st Marquess of Anglesey's tenure, who commanded the cavalry at the Battle of Waterloo.

There's a fine spring garden and Australasian arboretum, with an understorey of shrubs and wild flowers, a summer terrace, and massed hydrangeas which give autumn colour.

A woodland walk gives access to a marine path beside the Menai Strait.

We've a wide range of events this year to suit everyone including:

  • 5 June: Plas Newydd's Jubilee Strait Party
  • 19 June: Bonhams valuation day
  • 7-8 July: Summer jazz concert
  • 7 August: Summer Fair
