The response of state-wide political parties to the establishment of sub-state government remains a relatively neglected research area. This thesis seeks to remedy this situation by analyzing the Conservative Party’s adaptation to devolution in Wales. -
The Vale Resort Unveils Historic Conference Venue for 2015
Press release 9 February 2015 The Vale Resort unveils historic conference venue for 2015 An historic castle in south Wales, which has been used as stage set for Sherlock, Doctor Who and Torchwood, is reopening as a conference venue for the 2015 season, following the first phase of a multi-million pound refurbishment to restore it to its former glory. The 400-year old Hensol Castle, located within the grounds of the Vale Resort, is undergoing a £10 million revamp, the first phase of which will include introducing conference facilities in the new purpose-built Courtyard Hall, capable of hosting 320 delegates theatre- style and 200 delegates banquet-style. The facilities at Courtyard Hall will be complemented by five smaller meeting rooms in the castle itself that can host between 10-100 delegates per room theatre-style, all of which will be available from April 2015. Phase two of the investment will include adding up to 30 bedrooms and a top-end restaurant with 120 covers, expected to be open by late 2016. The Courtyard Hall has been designed to be energy efficient with heat-retaining and heat- reflective glass, low energy lighting and a natural grass and wildflower roof. Meanwhile, the 17 th -century castle has original architecture, turrets, gothic towers and feature staircases, and its restoration is being completed in close association with the Vale of Glamorgan Council and CADW, the Welsh Government’s body responsible for preserving Welsh heritage. The former stately home, situated six miles outside of Cardiff city centre and three minutes off junction 34 of the M4, is set within landscaped gardens and has a 15-acre lake and serpentine pond. -
