This is a full length room with windows to the front and rear and is dominated by the stunning inglenook style fireplace with wood burning stove and continues with the stunning tiled flooring.

On the left is the snug or, if you prefer, a dining room again with a full height floor to eaves window overlooking the rear garden and another smaller inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. This room has built-in oak bookshelves and display unit and turned staircase leading to the first floor; the tiled flooring continues through this room and in to the kitchen/dining room.

Taking the oak stairs from the Snug the impressive oak framing becomes more obvious and it starts with the minstrels galleried landing where the aforementioned floor to eaves window provides the perfect framing for the incredible views and is a great space to sit and relax and enjoy them.

The paddock measures approximately 1.4 acres in size and is what gives the property its Welsh name Caedelyn meaning "The Place of the Harp".
