Officials say the Grade I listed venue can now go from 'perilous condition' to its former glory.
The castle which hosted ITV's I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is set to be saved from collapse thanks to a £2.2m grant.
The Grade I listed venue in Abergele in Conwy county requires urgent repairs delayed by the pandemic.The castle was built between 1812 and 1822 by Lloyd Hesketh Bamford-Hesketh and was retained within the same family for 1,000 years. While it might be most recently known for creepy crawlies and daring challenges, the striking three-storey Gothic space is flanked by two lower wings and boasts a great entrance hall, library, drawing room, music room and an Italian marble staircase.Dr Mark Baker, head of Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust, said the castle's buildings are in "perilous condition following the pandemic".
