About Pen-y-bryn
Pen-y-bryn is a historic two-storey manor house located in Abergwyngregyn, Gwynedd, near the A55, just five miles east of Bangor and eight miles west of Conwy. Constructed primarily of broken stone with a slate roof, the manor features a prominent four-storey stone tower and is set within the Garth Celyn earthworks, offering views over the Menai Strait.
