Built on the site of an ancient monastery, it has its own Holy Well and medieval ruined chapel (St Deiniol’s) in the garden. A picture of St Deiniol’s chapel, by the artist Charles Norris, hangs in The Library in Cardiff. It is also illustrated in Richard Fenton’s ‘Tour in Wales’ in 1811, and both the chapel and the village church can be found on the earliest map of Pembrokeshire. The origin of Penally Abbey is strouded in mystery. Legend says there was a monastery on this site in the 5th century. In 1301 the advowson was given to the nuns of Aconbury. Eight nuns and their prioress lived in the rectory until the Dissolution of the Monastries. Since the beginning of the 20th century it has been in private occupation. In 1916 the Jameson’s Whiskey family left the troubles in Ireland and stayed until 1925. Various military personnel lived here in the 30’s and 40’s, and in the 50’s it became a country club - the only place you could get a drink on a Sunday. In 1985 the present owners fell in love with the beautifully proportioned rooms, ogee head doors, huge windows and wonderful views across the bay. They bought the house on a whim, and for the first ten years it was the family home, giving the children an idyllic Enid Blyton childhood. When weekend breaks became the rage in the 90’s they decided it had all the qualities of a small country house hotel, and have been running it as such ever since. Penally Abbey is on the border of Britain’s only Coastal National Park: a spectacular landscape of rugged cliffs; exceptional sandy beaches; wooded estuaries; wild inland hills and a place of sanctuary for wildlife. This year Pembrokeshire was voted 2nd in the Top Rated Coastal Destinations in the World, by The National Geographic. Its proximity to the Medieval Walled Town of Tenby makes it one of Pembrokeshire’s most desirable locations. Regarded by many as the’ jewel in the crown, ’ because of its pastel painted Georgian houses, ruined castle, cobbled streets and long stretches of golden sand. Immortalized by artists such as Gwen and Augustus John, Nina Hamnett and John Knapp-Fisher, it has the most photographed harbour in the British Isles. Tenby, is a town steeped in ancient history, which through the passages of time has seen many changes. In medieval times it was an important port, but by the early 19th century, Sir William Paxton, found a town in decay. His investment and vision resurrected it to a wealthy resort. Later the Victorians began visiting the town for the health benefits they believed it offered. In 1863, The Industrial Revolution arrived in the form of railways and shipping lanes and the tourist industry truly boomed. Today, Tenby is still accessible by rail. Trains run regularly each day to and from Paddington via the cities of Swansea and Cardiff. Ferries sail daily from Fishguard and Pembroke Dock to Ireland. Tenby, is now only a 40mins journey from the end the M4 motorway.

SITUATION The outstanding GALLOWAY HOUSE is located in approx. 20 acres of tranquil gardens, grounds (believed to be influenced by Capability Brown), and a field surrounded by mature woodlands, overlooking Wigtown Bay. Wigtownshire is the gem of South West Scotland, for centuries well known and appreciated for its colourful hills, magnificent forests, rivers and dramatic coastlines. It has a low population, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The area benefits from the mild Gulf Stream climate, which allows a variety of tender plants, including palm trees, to grow. There are many opportunities for country sports in the area, including wild-fowling, fishing and stalking, as well as pheasant and partridge shooting on surrounding estates. There are several excellent golf courses, such as Wigtown, Newton Stewart, Gatehouse of Fleet, Glenluce and Stranraer with Championship courses at Turnberry. The coastline offers sailing and sea fishing and there are safe anchorages at Garlieston, Port William and the Isle of Whithorn. Garlieston is a small fishing village, located just under a mile away, and has a primary school. Newton Stewart offers the nearest secondary school, as well as supermarkets, a variety of shops and professional services. The historic town of Wigtown, "Scotland`s National Book Town", lies about 8 miles to the north and is home to both the smallest and the largest bookshops in Scotland. Stranraer (33 miles) and Dumfries (57 miles) are the major towns in the area and have an excellent range of shops and local services, hospitals and supermarkets as well as railway stations with regular services to Glasgow and London. Galloway House can be easily accessed from the transport network of Scotland. The M6/M74, the main route from North West England to Scotland, lies to the east of Dumfries while Prestwick Airport (69 miles), Glasgow International Airport (100 miles) and Edinburgh Airport (135 miles) are also within easy driving distance. These have regular flights to London as well as a wide variety of other domestic and foreign destinations. Stranraer lies 33 miles to the west and is the ferry terminal for Northern Ireland with services to Larne and Belfast. ARCHITECTURE AND HISTORY Galloway House is an imposing George II Category "A" Listed Palladian mansion house of national significance. It was built for Alexander Stewart, Lord Garlies, later the 6th Earl of Galloway. The family seat was previously at Garlies Castle then at Glasserton. When Glasserton was destroyed by fire in 1734, the 5th Earl set about building another house. However his heir, Lord Garlies, decided a new grand mansion was called for. He was well known for his extravagant personality and generous hospitality. He chose to situate it near the old fishing hamlet of Carsewell at Pouton, overlooking Wigtown Bay, which he described as the healthiest, pleasantest, most agreeable and convenient place in the whole estate. A design submitted by William Adam was amended by the architect Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, Lord Garlies kinsman and the great arbiter of taste of the day. Lord Garlies commissioned the master mason, John Baxter, to build his new house. The house overlooks the Solway Firth and was built from 1740, taking 5 years to complete. It was later worked on by architects Robert Milne in 1764 and William Burn in 1842. The construction is of whinstone and elaborately carved and dressed red sandstone, with slate and lead pitched roofing. The total floor space, including two staff flats and outbuildings, is about 35, 000 sq ft. Well preserved, with conditions created for remaining refurbishment, extensive upgrading and preparation works having already been undertaken. The total floor space, including two staff flats and outbuildings, is about 35, 000 sq ft. Well preserved, with conditions created for remaining refurbishment, extensive upgrading and preparation works have already been undertaken. There is flexibility in the size and layout of the building, which makes it an outstanding family home with potential for additional, complimentary commercial useage. The house is set in listed and protected parkland and farmland and enjoys legal access to the adjoining sandy Rigg Bay beach. The family name of the Earls of Galloway is Stewart which is one of the most significant clans of Scotland, and their direct descendants date back to Robert the Bruce. The Clan Stewart was active in most of Scotland’s wars. A great number of clansmen were killed at the final battle of Culloden, fighting for Charles Edward Stuart, Bonnie Prince Charlie. The House of Stewart not only provided all the monarchs of Scotland from 1371 to 1603, but also of the united crowns of Scotland and England from 1603 to 1714 and through time, 13 Dukedoms and 17 Earldoms in Great Britain. The Stewarts also provided two British Prime Ministers and held Dukedoms in Italy, France and Spain. The Royal Stewart tartan is worn by HRH Queen Elizabeth II. The Garlies branch had associations with Robert I, James I, Mary Queen of Scots, Bonnie Prince Charlie, Queen Anne, Robert Burns, Lord Nelson, Wellington, Walpole and Gladstone among many others. The poet Robert Burns, whom the 7th Earl of Galloway refused to receive at Galloway House, disliking his politics, satires him vigorously in Epigrams against the Earl of Galloway as shown in the following extract: What dost thou in that mansion fair, Flit Galloway, and find Some narrow dirty, dungeon cave, The picture of thy mind. However, the Earl is described in an obituary: Perhaps there never was a nobleman more deservedly and sincerely regretted by so many distinguished families and connections, and by so many poor people, long employed, and supported by him.
