In 1854 he succeeded his father in the barony and entered the House of Lords. Between 1840 and 1884 he served as Lord Lieutenant of Merionethshire.

Lord Mostyn died in March 1884, aged 89, and was succeeded in his titles by his grandson Llewellyn, his eldest son the Hon. Thomas Edward Lloyd-Mostyn having predeceased him.
