The country house which currently exists was built on a different spot in 1872. The interior is elegant, with a Canadian pine staircase, 38 bedrooms,[3][4] and four conference style rooms, including The Garden, Terrace, Gallery and Library Rooms.[2]

The hotel was purchased by Paymán Holdings 3 Ltd director Na'ím Anís Paymán in 2022. A planning application was submitted to house 400 asylum seekers on the site.[5] Flintshire County Council rejected the application in September 2023.[6]
