Around an ongoing barn conversion project, this website draws together advice, information and references to aid all would-be and current barn and non-residential building converters and renovators.
Our approach takes on board 'healthy house', sustainable, ecological & environmental concepts to as great a degree as timescales and budgets allow.

Where?
In West Wales, in the foothills of the Black Mountains, close to the brooding presence of Carreg Cennen Castle.
The barn was originally a farm building on an estate farm. The structure is generally sound with a recently reslated roof and complete walls that contain much dressed stone.
