Overnight guests can enjoy morning tea or coffee with a newspaper served in their room and then come downstairs to a cooked-to-order breakfast served with fresh orange juice, home made preserves and local wild honey. The accommodation consists of three very individual double rooms (all non-smoking). Each one is fitted with original pieces and has a distinctive name and character.

Tirion (gentle and happy) is a "businessman's room" decorated in bold blues and cerises that give it a nautical feel. It has its own private vestibule, a small desk and a stylish 1920s modernistic bathroom decorated with gloriously deep-blue glazed Moustier tiles.

Tybie (A Welsh saint, daughter of Brychan from Carmarthenshire) is a cosy, romantic room with sumptuous soft furnishings, antique pine furniture and a pretty wrought-iron bed with brass fittings. Tybie is complemented by an en-suite shower room with wall-to-wall Sicilian sandstone mosaic from Fired Earth.

Myfanwy (fine and rare), with its corona over the king size bed, chandelier and gold sheen wallpaper, has a French ambience. It was in this room that we discovered, exposed and restored the oak frames of the original single-storey building.

The adjoining room is dominated by a capacious glass and stainless steel shower. The walls are of African slate, and above the Italian wash basin hangs an antique oval mirror set in an unusual hand-painted frame.
