Introduction
Bodysgallen is situated to the south of the town of Llandudno with views to Snowdonia. The remains of a landscape park and oak woodland surround an early-17th-century country house with many later additions. There are extensive terraced and walled gardens on several levels, with early origins, and largely unaltered 18th-century rose and kitchen gardens. At the time of writing in 2011 Bodysgallen Hall is a hotel and spa.
