Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd, Eyarth, LL15

An attractive stone built Cottage converted from barns in the Jacobean Eyarth Hall estate. The settlement stands on an unusual limestone roche moutonée, once the site of an ancient Roman Fort and now hosts a protected rare butterfly sanctuary and nature reserve, running down the Vale of Clywd.

The Cottage stands in a sheltered courtyard and offers versatile accommodation with an entrance hall leading into a dining room and up a few steps to an impressively large sitting room with high ceiling and panoramic views over the Vale of Clywd to the Clwydian Mountain Range and Offa's Dyke.
