Full Details for 9 Bedroom Detached to rent in Prestatyn, LL19 :
9 bedroom, 6 bathroom fully furnished stately home available to rent immediately. Including land and golf course.
Westbury Castle comprises a magnificent Late Regency Mansion in Tudor- Gothic style which has been sensitively refurbished. Originally constructed in the 1820's by the 7th Baronet of Mostyn this Grade II* listed property comprises three distinct wings with the north and east wings forming the main body of the house.
Westbury Castle Estate History:
This majestic listed building and its grounds are set amid attractive north-westerly sloping woodlands, the position chosen for the outstanding views over its original parkland to the Irish Sea, the Great Orme, Anglesey, Lancashire and the Cumbrian Hills.
The site was first occupied by a son of Baron Mostyn of Mostyn in the 15th Century. In 1670, the title of 'Baronet' was conferred on Edward Mostyn of Talacre by Charles II in gratitude for his support in the Ulster Campaign. At that time, the family lived in a Jacobean Mansion House on the site.
The current Mansion was built by the 7th Baronet Mostyn in the 1820s and reflects the considerable wealth and status that the family had accrued. The House is late Regency in the Tudor-gothic style, built from Ashlar sandstone from the family's own quarries and using oak from the Estate.
The Talacre Estate originally comprised over 6,300 acres, which included farms, quarries and woodlands around Talacre Hall, plus the Greenfield Valley industrial area and adjacent farms and extensive land with valuable mineral resources including lead and coal. Stone from Gwespyr quarries, besides being used for building was exported as sharpening stones worldwide.
The Mostyns left the property in 1920 following the deaths of two Baronets in quick succession. It was occupied by an order of Benedictine Nuns as an Abbey until the late 20th Century when it once more became a family home. The property is available to rent fully furnished and accomodation comprises:
The main entrance features an oriel window over a 3-bay crenulated porte cochere with family crest. It leads to the Entrance Hall:
The Entrance Hall features oak panelled dado, oak floor, stone fireplace with oak surround and panelled ceiling with historically important heraldic medallions. This room has separate doorways to the State Dining Room, Morning Room and Main Staircase.
The State Dining Room, facing East, features oak panelled dado, oak floor, stone fireplace and panelled ceiling with cornice featuring Trefoil Crest and Mostyn Rampant Lion. A second oak door designed to link the room with the Service (West) Wing now also links with the current Family Room / Kitchen next door.
The Morning Room, also facing East and adjacent to the Entrance Hall.
The Drawing Room is in two parts, linked by large oak-lined double doorway, designed to partition the room for ladies and gentlemen after dinner; the eastern end has a fine ornate white marble fireplace with rampant lion over, panelled, finials and carved spandrels. The western end, the former library (where the gentlemen 'retired'), has a matching white marble fireplace with Trefoil badge and full height french windows leading out to the Conservatory. The impressive ceiling is identical in each half of the room with radiating mouchette patterns, crenellated cornices with openwork cresting and foliate basketwork to friezes. Outside is a paved terrace supported by a Gothic loggia. Extensive Views are over the grounds to the east and the sea to the north.
The octagonal Conservatory benefits from the afternoon sun. It has a stone floor, arched full-height windows and French casement doors leading to a polygonal terrace. Views over the courtyard, fountain and woodlands to the west.
The Grand Staircase.
Two separate doors lead from the Entrance Hall to this impressive feature with massive oak baluster and large leaded light window on the half landing, leading to the first floor landing and accommodation.
On the ground floor, passages from the Grand Staircase lead to the State Rooms, the Baronet's Study and an original feature cloakroom. The Cloakroom has a washbasin and separate Victorian toilet with original fittings.
The Study features an original stone fireplace, alcoves with bookshelves and a desk-style window ledge with cupboard beneath. This room also has a private access to the Undercroft, formerly used by visiting tradesmen. Views are over the Courtyard and towards the Riding School .
The Family Room. This magnificent room, originally the private Mostyn family Chapel, has been converted to a stunning kitchen / breakfast / sitting room with vaulted ornate and gilded ceiling. The room features an original stone fireplace and stained glass window. The recently installed kitchen area comprises pine cupboards, granite worktops, a Belfast sink and double gas-fired Aga. There is a first floor gallery overlooking the room.
A large Utility Room with parquet flooring adjoins the Family Room. Linked to the Family Room by a passageway to the former Butler's pantry, now a comfortable Sitting Room.
