Gardens & Grounds
The East Wing benefits from front yard and private rear garden, carefully landscaped and full of mature planting. The front yard in particular is notable for its sunny, south-facing aspect. The East Wing is set within the heart of the historic Trawscoed Estate, formerly known as Crosswood Park. The mansion is surrounded by parkland, ancient woodland, and open countryside, creating an atmosphere of peace, privacy and rural refinement.
Historical Significance
Trawscoed Mansion is one of the most historically important country houses in Ceredigion. Dating back to the 13th century and extensively remodelled in the 17th and 19th centuries, the house was the ancestral seat of the Vaughan family, later the Earls of Lisburne. During its height in the Victorian era, the estate extended to over 42,000 acres.
From 1947, the mansion served as the Welsh headquarters for the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and the East Wing has since been sensitively converted for private ownership.
