Contemporary sofas are placed perfectly to enjoy the vistas and the modern wood-burning stove, perfect for cool evenings. An original huge stone internal wall partially separates the kitchen and living areas. It adds charm and interest and the modern galley kitchen fits in perfectly. There are striking yellow pops and stunning tiles above the dazzling white cupboards and worksurfaces. From the trendy dining table, you will not only admire your delicious meal, you will also be awe of the exposed wall and the fabulous art and artefacts.
The architectural, open tread staircase takes you upstairs to the three well-appointed bedrooms.

They all have their own charms. The shower room features an original stone fireplace as well as trendy metro tiles.
The gardens of Botwnnog Coach House are as stunning as the interior. You feel far, far away from it all and are likely to hear owls hooting and the low buzz of dragonflies over the pretty pond. You can see the circular pond from the living room with its central huge pillar. A fountain, ancient stone structures and the wonderful fire pit area all add interest and delight. With seating all around, the fire pit is a lovely evening spot where children will enjoy toasting marshmallows and you can all chat about your plans for the following day.
