Early Victorian mansion house with spectacular views over Ascog Bay.
Balmory Hall was built in the early 1860's and is a magnificent example of the Italian style of villa architecture. When Mount Stuart House was destroyed by fire in 1878 the 3rd Marquess of Bute and his family lived at Balmory Hall until his own Gothic mansion was completed. The original house was extended in the late 1800's and in more recent times the current owners have overseen an extensive programme of restoration and sympathetic modernisation to create the wonderful property that we see today. The hugely impressive reception hall sets the tone and leads to the grand reception rooms whilst the original dining room has been converted into a modern kitchen and family living area. The lavishly furnished bedroom areas include two 2 bedroomed self contained suites with sitting room, and kitchen facilities, a further 1 bedroom suite and 5 further bedrooms with en-suite facilities. Whilst forming a very comfortable and spacious family home the owners have run a very successful tourist related business, offering a combination of bed and breakfast and self catering opportunities.
