General Description :
<p>Pantglas is a large, beautifully renovated, 5 acre, organically certified, eco powered smallholding positioned in secluded woodland with its own stream and spring water source. It is set high above the Teifi valley, on the edge of the Cambrian mountains at an elevation of 1100ft, near to the west Wales coast of Cardigan bay. It is situated down its own track and it has the best panoramic views that you are likely to find anywhere in Wales. It has no near neighbours and yet is only 2 miles from the nearest village with shop, school etc. The property is entirely self sufficient in timber for heating and has a very large photo-voltaic solar array for electricity with back-up diesel generator.</p><p><br /> The 2 houses are very well insulated and solidly constructed from stone and Welsh slate. The original farm cottage has 2 bedrooms, bathroom/wc, kitchen/living room with oil-fired Rayburn cooker and wood burner. The adjacent annexe has 3 bedrooms, shower room and an unusually large and spacious open plan kitchen living area. Both houses have insulated wooden floors throughout </p>
