Great little B&B, nicely converted old school. The owners have done a first class job on the renovation.

Company information

We believe in using as much renewable, sustainable technologies as possible to reduce our carbon footprint. The B & B has underfloor heating throughout, solar photovoltaic for electricity, solar thermal and a biomass pellet boiler connected to an intelligent thermal store for the hot water and heating, a log fire in the breakfast room, a rain water harvesting system provides the water for the toilets and a bio-digestive systems takes care of the sewerage. The B & B was originally the old headmaster dwelling. We were on channel 4's Four in a Bed, it was an enjoyable time and we are delighted to say we won. We were also featured on George Clark's restoration man - welsh school a few years ago. Our B & B is suitable for a quiet, relaxing time here in sunny Wales. We enjoy the tranquil surroundings, the outdoors and nature. We ride motorbikes, enjoy sailing and occasionally walking. We love having BBQ's in the garden with the odd glass of wine or two!
