Fodor's Expert Review Nanteos Mansion

This historic Georgian mansion, now a luxury hotel which also offers self-catering accommodations, was for many years the home of the Nanteos Cup (alleged to be the Holy Grail and now in the National Library of Wales). The sophisticated, traditionally furnished rooms have all the modern amenities; the suites are particularly grand. The restaurant, Nightingale, is renowned for its creative use of local produce and the bar has a good selection of Welsh beers and spirits. Nanteos is 4 miles southeast of Aberystwyth.
