Set in an attractive, small hamlet less than a mile from the coast at Nash Point in the Vale of Glamorgan, The Stables was created about four years ago by the present owners from the former farm buildings of Village Farm. It is one of two adjoining properties grouped around a large central courtyard with views out over the fields opposite.

The property is L-shaped in two wings and the bedroom wing is Victorian. The living room wing could be much older and it is thought that some of the stone work may have come from a much older structure, possibly even the castle which is thought may have been on the site in much earlier times. A full and fascinating archaeological report is available from the watching brief at the time of conversion.

The owners have managed well to combine the essential character of the property with a need for modern light levels and a high standard of appointment.

The accommodation is all on one floor which has allowed considerable scope for high pitched ceilings with exposed roof timbers giving a lovely feeling of space and light.

The living space is exceptional with a room almost 40' long and over 17' wide. The owners resisted the temptation to sub-divide it preferring to have it as a wonderfully large open-plan room but clearly sub-division is an option open to a purchaser wanting a different layout.

The kitchen, which is big enough to eat in, has been fitted in a natural rustic style and there is a good size adjoining utility room.

The bedroom wing offers four good size bedrooms with exposed beams and exposed stonework and two bathrooms (one of which is the master en suite).

The property enjoys the benefit of full gas (LPG) fired central heating and is double glazed with timber frames.

Marcross is a tiny hamlet but does boast a church and a pub. Just down the road in St Donats is the Arts Centre at St Donats Castle and a little further away are the excellent town facilities of both Llantwit Major and Cowbridge.

The property stands on a no through road which leads down to the cliffs at Nash Point with wonderful wide ranging views over the Bristol Channel.

Despite the very pleasantly rural location, major centres are within easy commuting distance including the capital city of Cardiff, Bridgend, Swansea, Barry, Llantrisant etc.
