Introduction
The house, garden and park at Voelas are situated in a notably picturesque part of the Conwy valley. The entire site is designed to exploit its riverside setting. The park, the garden terraces, terraced walled garden and woodland and river walks were laid out in the late-19th century, at the same time as the house was remodelled.
