For Amanda Harlech, her family’s 400-year-old estate simply feels like home.
Francis’s father, William David Ormsby-Gore, the fifth Baron Harlech , and his wife, Pamela Harlech, had invited us to dinner and I was a bit wide-eyed about the whole thing. Pamela had refurbished Glyn Cywarch’s ancient manor house, which had been passed down the family since 1616, in the 1970s and my sense was of extreme comfort: a tapestry of personalities and history and warmth.Francis and I were married in 1986, and then along came our son, Jasset, and daughter, Tallulah.
But I left that to him and worried chiefly about making Glyn Cywarch a home. After Francis died, in 2016, and the house passed to Jasset, I remember saying to him that some places are so spiritually linked with an ancient family, to the point the stone steps have been worn away by generations, they’re irreplaceable. He determined, therefore, that after paying the taxman he would keep the estate and restore a house that was in really bad condition.
