Cedar Gardens History
 

Bob McQueen's father bought Llanbedr Hall Estate in a derelict condition in 1955. He transformed the estate into a hamlet of cottages and a hotel and country club which he operated until 1978 when he decided to retire to Southport and gave the property to Bob.

In the 1970s Bob and Annie took a 5-year break from their professional careers in California and ran a retreat center on the estate called Bryn Coed (wooded hill). Participants were people from all walks of life who were seeking insights into how to live a happy and healthy life and make a positive contribution to society. Bob and Annie returned to California in 1981. They kept their Llanbedr Hall Estate property until after Bob’s Dad died. When they sold Llanbedr Hall and grounds in 2003, they retained ownership of the southern wing as a second home and named the property Cedar Gardens.

Bob and Annie live in California and visit family and friends in the UK normally twice a year. They have been very fortunate in finding excellent managers to care for and upgrade Cedar Gardens. The manager for the past 24 years is Peter Jones who has been a visionary and architect of the many resources and amenities we now enjoy.

Cedar Gardens has been and continues to be Bob and Annie McQueen's home in Wales. Spending time at Cedar Gardens has made an important contribution to dissipating the stress in their lives and rejuvenating their spirits. For many years Bob and Annie made Cedar Gardens available as a retreat space for family and friends. About 7 years ago they decided to offer Cedar Gardens, on a weekly basis, as a retreat space for others if who seek a special place to rejuvenate their spirits. The guestbook shows how valuable visiting Cedar Gardens has been for so many guests.
