Description

A nature retreat and lifestyle property in about 23 acres Set in about 23 acres, this sustainable nature retreat is something really quite special. With a heritage dating back to 1706, Llethrau Farm celebrates the surrounding natural environment with taste, respect and beauty. Originally an historic smallholding, the property now includes a two bedroom farmhouse, a one bedroom barn, a one bedroom long barn, three shepherd's huts, two yurts and several useful outbuildings and workshops. The current owners have carried out extensive renovations to the entire plot, and particularly to the grounds, which are a delight. The retreat lends itself to team building days, weekend or week-long retreats, workshops and/or large family gatherings. However, Llethrau Farm could equally be a home with earning potential (subject to any necessary permissions) and/or multigenerational living. The peace and quiet, and breathtaking views leave one feeling completely relaxed and recharged. There is the potential for a complete lifestyle change here, with many options available to the right person.

Described as an 'alpine chalet' this exceptional detached barn is built of stone and timber with an open-plan living area focussed round a wood burner. It is placed privately amongst the trees yet close enough to access the delights of the property and surrounding grounds. The exposed stone-work along with the vaulted ceiling and stunning mezzanine master bedroom are features worthy of mentioning and add plenty of character to this cosy barn. A pretty conservatory is set off the vaulted sitting room and adjacent to this is the breakfast/kitchen room with flagstone flooring, all set around the Aga. Completing the ground floor are the second bedroom and family shower room. Outside there is a private terrace with mature trees and shrubs, a greenhouse and a BBQ area. Forest View Barn and Llethrau Village Hall Forest View Barn is a beautifully converted cow shed built of stone and retains may of its original features; vaulted ceiling, stone flags and timbers. The abundance of glass/windows make the most of the stunning location and give plenty of opportunity for quiet birdwatching and generally relaxing in the peaceful surrounds.

Shanti is infused with Indian flair and cries out for a weekend of yoga relaxation, whilst Cowboy is Western-themed with timber cladding and rustic decor.
