And that's a wrap!!
Thank you to everyone who came out and supported us on our very first open day, it was lovely to meet you and to be able to show you around Glansevin.
From getting to hear about old stories that some of you had to share about Glansevin, to hearing about all the wonderful & exciting plans that some of you have coming in the near future and looking for that perfect venue to host that event in. It's been truly lovely to meet you all.
And mostly we just want to say a big shout out to all the suppliers who came today, it wouldn't have been such a great day without you, shame about the weather, but it didn't dampen such a wonderful day.
Diolch

We are beyond excited to be able to share some pictures and memories from a recent wedding held here at Glansevin Mansion 🤍
Heres what the Brides themselves had to say.....
"We have lots of great stories from the weekend! I’m a massive movie and dinosaur fan and we had the Jurassic Park theme song playing in our ceremony, followed by Crocodile Rock by Elton John, as Beth and I had just seen him in concert a month earlier together."
We hired @limegrovegrazing for our breakfasts and wedding buffet and it was beautiful. Sian couldn’t have done more for us. We would absolutely recommend her company for any events.
Uncharacteristically, Wales was really hot on our wedding day, so the only way to cool off was jumping into the pool!
The night before the wedding we played rounders in the rain on the grassy area at the back of the house. I was told not to commit 100%, so not to cause any injuries :-)
We had a ‘Sh*t shirt’ night on Friday evening, where all our guests had to wear the craziest shirts they could find, it ranged from dinosaurs, to our faces, to see through bling, Carebears and lots of crazy themes.
We had the best 80/90s rock band called @irontygeruk , who travelled all the way up from the south coast to rock out to Summer of 69! The guitarists took it in turns to run out the dining room doors and around the house and back before their song solos.
Beth’s 87 year old grandma traveled all the way from Nottingham to Glansevin for our wedding weekend. She absolutely loved it.
My dad passed away during COVID, despite him not being able to walk me down to the oak tree, my brother stepped in and offered. He wore a full Scottish highland outfit, as a memory to my dad (he was Scottish) so in a way he was there with me.
Once all our guests left on Sunday afternoon, Beth and I spent a couple of hours sitting in the sun, under the oak tree in the garden opening our cards. It was the perfect end, to the perfect weekend."
We wish you all the happiness,
Throwback to this Huw Rees bridal photoshoot, held here at Glansevin Mansion

✨🌳Our orchard story so far...
Last autumn, we could see about 4 or 5 trees laden with apples, but between us and them was an imprenitable wall of brambles and nettles about 5 ft high. Behind the trees were a number of sorry and dangerous looking ash trees which had been smitten by the ash die back disease.
By chance we discovered there was an apple variety called Glansevin. On some research we found out that variety did originate at Glansevin. We were able to buy a couple of bare root trees. This provided the urgency to do something about this area of garden.
As a winter project we decided to reinstate the orchard that had obviously been there in the past.
The plan was to fell the dead ash trees, prune the apple trees, clear the ground and plant apple trees.
I met Carol at Telegraph Garden Centre in Llangadog who then visited and gave lots of encouragement and advice.
Our wonderful neighbours at The Coach House gave access to the back of that land where most of the ash trees were. Proclimber felled the dead ash trees. 22 tons worth of wood, which Tim Davies at Dyfed Firewood came and removed for us. We fought brambles, with strimmers and forks and rakes. Arwel Morgan came and turned the soil, making the return of the brambles less instant.
Amazingly, the vista emerged. The area was far larger than we had thought.
A highlight was when Terry Hall who was a WWII evacuee visited after about 82 years. He used to have chores in those days too. This time, we asked him to plant the Queen of the Realm variety. This variety was newly created for the Jubliee. Our nod to the future.
I hesitate, it's early days, to say, but the trees look happy. This doesn't mean the hard work is over. The new trees will need caring for.
So, thank you Glansevin staff - you are amazing. Also thank you, Carol from Telegraph Garden Centre, John and Sue at the Coach House, Andy and Emma from Pro Climber and, Arwel with your machines, for all your contributions. 🫶

Camilo and Rochelle Rincon & Co who in their words "had a fantastic time reliving memories during our recent visit. Our wedding was held on September 9th, 2010 and despite the morning rain, the sun appeared just as I was scheduled to come outside, which was lucky"✨
✨Camilo & Rochelle threw a fabulous themed party to celebrate her birthday while staying with at Glansevin Mansion over the weekend and has given us permission to share some of their photos from the weekend and of their wedding day with you all.✨
✨Thank you for choosing to come back to us and making some more memories✨

We are so excited to finally show you our newly refurbished pool ready and waiting for you, when you arrive here at Glansevin Mansion to dip in to and enjoy....rain or shine, depending on how brave you are 😆

And boy what a project this has been, and we are truly thrilled with the results 🤗 we can't wait to see you all enjoy the pool and sauna when you come and stay with us next 💦
Big shout out and can't thank enough, Roland and his team @bosleisurewales, our local builder Lloyd Davies and his team and last but not least, the fabulous team here at Glansevin Mansion who cracked on over the winter months to help get this ready for all of you guys to come and enjoy.
We can't wait to see the pictures this year of everyone having some fun in the sun or those braving a plunge in the colder climate!! 💙

Just over a year ago we completed buying this beautiful Georgian Mansion - such an opportunity.
And what an amazing year it has been!
We knew we would be creating wonderful memories and experiences here, but it's been a joy, a privilege and such a surprise to be able to help create memories and experiences for others. Guests have chosen to come with their family and friends to celebrate their weddings, their birthdays, their anniversaries, their informal family gatherings and amongst them companies have accomplished their events. All this, and so much more, has happened here at Plas Glansevin.
We want to thank everyone who has chosen to come and spend time at our gorgeous residence and has created those unique and fabulous experiences and memories with us. Thank you for making it a year to remember.
And an even bigger thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last year, our friends and family and in particular our wonderful unbeatable team, as well as all the new friends and colleagues who we have met along the way.
Here's to 2023, we can't wait to see what adventures this year holds.
We already have some surprises in the pipeline that we cannot wait to share with you. But you will have to wait to hear until later in the year, so keep watching this space! Camilla and Ben
