Dyffryn House and gardens

View On Black

The story of Dyffryn Estate dates back to the 7th century A.D. when the then Manor of Worlton was given to Bishop Oudoceous of Llandaf. In the 16th century the manor was acquired by the Button family and the first house was built. The family occupied the estate for a number generations and it is said that they still do to this day as the ghost of Admiral Sir Thomas Button haunts the grounds of the estate!
