History
A word borrowed from Llanfendigaid, its name translates as Parish of the Blessed. The Nanney-Wynn family and their ancestors have occupied the lands of Llanfendigaid since it was first recorded in approximately 1241. The main house was built in the 13th century, and was renovated to its present design in 1746. John Nanney married the Anwyl heiress in the early 17th century. Hence the family is related to Evan Vaughan Anwyl, who descends from Owain Gwynedd.

Llanfendigaid is a member of Premier Cottages and is operated as a high-quality flex-catering complex.

Listing the home for sale in 2021, the former army officer Will Garton-Jones is the last of 40 generations of the Wynn-Nanney family to own the house, The estate has an asking price of £2m.
