To celebrate the successfully completed Stoneworks project to restore the exterior of Dyffryn House, we have opened the Morning Room as an exhibition space.
Discover more about the different lives and fortunes of Dyffryn House since it was built in the 1890s. Find out about the conservation and restoration work we are carrying out to stabilise the building so that it stands proudly at the heart of the gardens for another 125 years.
