Ellesmere Beano Accommodation

The Grange is a haven for people wanting space, peace and tranquility. Built in the 1740's, this elegant house is surrounded by ten acres of grounds. When the famous Victorian engineer Thomas Telford was constructing the Llangollen Canal, his chief engineer lived at The Grange – it is quite likely that the great man himself slept in one of the bedrooms.

Jon and Rosie are our hosts at The Grange which, as well as being their family home, is the venue for a range of courses from yoga to painting. Spacious accommodation includes two comfortable lounges, a conservatory, and a tiled terrace surrounded by ornamental ironwork. Most bedrooms are in the main house, with a few more in the converted stable block across the yard.

"The Grange was a special place to stay." – Carol Patton
