Various Other Outbuildings
Set in Large Gardens and Grounds with Paddock and Woodland
Approx. 2.7 Acres In All
Wonderfully Secluded Rural Location
The house is believed to date back to around 1800 and it retains much of its original charm and character. The pair of superb holiday cottages, thoughtfully converted from a traditional stone barn in 2007, are finished to an excellent standard offering charming accommodation, providing an established and highly successful holiday letting business. Currently marketed through Sykes Cottages, the cottages generate an attractive annual income and whether continued as a thriving holiday let enterprise, utilised for multi-generational living, or retained for visiting family and friends, the cottages offer considerable flexibility and are being sold fully equipped with an inventory of fixtures and fittings included in the sale.
Planning permission has previously been granted for a substantial two-storey extension to the main house, under Application Ref: E/28456, although this permission has subsequently expired. There is also scope to convert the remaining stone barn to a separate residence or additional holiday cottages, subject to the necessary permissions.
The property occupies a particularly attractive rural location, not far from the small village of Pumpsaint within the beautiful Cothi Valley. The village is best known for the historic Dolaucothi Goldmines, the UK’s only known Roman goldmine, now managed by the National Trust. There is a village hall / community centre and traditional country pub, and the surrounding countryside offers excellent walking, cycling and horse riding opportunities through quiet lanes, forestry tracks and local farmland. A wider range of everyday amenities, including supermarkets, independent shops, cafes, restaurants, doctors surgeries, schools and sporting facilities are provided by the University town of Lampeter, with further ranges close by in Llandovery and Llandeilo.
