United Kingdom Aberaeron Lima House The Best Hotel Deals

Lima House like many of the grade 2 listed buildings in Aberaeron was built around 1850. Many of the houses in the town are named after ships that were built there and Lima House is no exception, although The Lima which was a brig, was actually built in Aberystwyth. It was captained by master mariner John Jones, from Llansantffraid near Llanon, four miles up the coast from Aberaeron. Aberaeron is a beautiful harbour town mid way between Aberystwyth and Cardigan. The Harbour and formally laid out part of the town was the idea of the Rev Alban Thomas Jones Gwynne and Alban Square is named after him. Many of the houses in the town were built in the Edwardian style and thought to be designed by John Nash, as was LLANERCHAERON which is a National Trust Mansion with it's own walled gardens and farm not far from Aberaeron which is open to the public. Llanerchaeron is just one of the many attractions for visitors to Aberaeron.
