The play house was built for the children of Hugh Williams, who succeeded to Bodelwyddan in 1849 and became the 3rd baronet in 1859. The play house was probably built c1850. It is said to have had its interior walls lined in silk. The house was restored in 1986.
The projecting windows (seen in a pre-restoration photograph) may suggest the play house is by the same designer as the north terrace of cottages in Bodelwyddan Village.
