For over 50 years Dolcorsllwyn Hall, or “Dolly Hall” as it has been known to thousands of visitors over the years, has existed to provide residential accommodation for children and young under-privileged people, mainly from Merseyside and the surrounding areas. The DHA Charity has worked with schools, groups and organisations to provide the perfect location for them to enjoy what for some is a life changing experience.
“Dolly Hall” is a beautiful old mansion house on the banks of the River Dovey in Wales which can accommodate up to 26 at any one time. It is a very special place. If you are a past visitor to the Hall you will need no further explanation of this statement. For those of you yet to visit, the magic of the Hall is yet to be discovered, but once you do visit we have no doubt that old Dolly will cast her spell on you too.
Our Hall provides young people with the base to enjoy a holiday in an environment much different to the one perhaps that they live in. This can involve a whole range of activities from outdoor pursuits (climbing, kayaking, hill walking, pony trekking) to football games against local teams, art, drama, swimming, local history, geography field work, GCSE revision etc.

"The Dolly Hall charity has helped tens of thousands of Merseyside kids during the last 50 years. It is vital they raise the funds they need to continue this excellent work"

"Dolly Hall is a special place. The work the charity does is special, because they enable Inner City kids to enjoy a holiday in the countryside which in all probability they would not otherwise enjoy.
