About this space

This room makes a stunning impression on your guests or delegates. The Grand Library is a large, light - filled Rococo room. It has exquisite eighteenth century plaster ornamentation, a working open fire, gilt Rococo mirrors and a fine collection of antique books. It measures 11.6 by 3.2 metres and will comfortably sit 80 people cinema-style, or 60 around tables.

It is used for conferences, lectures, concerts, workshops, seasonal events, networking events, business breakfasts and parties.
It is on the first floor, with disabled access via a ramp and adjoining room. (Even the access room has the castle wow factor!)

The Vale's hidden gem - When only a castle will do!

Fonmon is a C12th castle with a variety of historic rooms, from a beautifully decorated C18th Rococo Library that seats 60-80, to elegant Georgian breakout/executive rooms, and a late-medieval Great Hall, which is a perfect space for socialising, right next to our bar.

We have glorious gardens and parkland, and space for barbecues on the sweeping South Lawn.

As an extra we can provide World-Champion lessons in archery axe-throwing and archery tag, and bush craft lessons with a qualified practitioner.

We are 25 minutes by car or 40 minutes by train from the centre of Cardiff - an unspoilt country estate right on your doorstep.
