Mae House, Tintern, The Wye Valley, NP16

Originally built in the late 1860's, this pretty 4 bedroom chapel conversion has been sympathetically restored and renovated whilst retaining a wealth of original Victorian features.

Internal features include a contemporary style wood burner, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, bespoke joinery, ledged and braced doors with suffolk latches, moulded skirting boards and a combination of stone, tiled and wooden boarded flooring.
