Full description

The house is situated in the south east wing of the castle, attached to the east end of the southern range, and dates from the 14th Century. It is Listed Grade II*, by virtue of its early date, surviving internal features, historic importance and group value with the Old Beaupre complex. Today it offers an unique opportunity to live in and be part of one of the most important historic houses in the Vale of Glamorgan. The house is very well appointed and carefully restored in keeping with its history. The Freehold title extends to approximately 6.36 acres (2.57 ha), which includes the Grade I listed castle in the Guardianship of CADW. Public access to the castle is via a footpath through the neighbours fields. The land is sub-divided into four paddocks and an orchard with clearly defined boundaries. There are four stables and several outhouses. There are Riparian rights on the River Thaw. Within the grounds is a two storey Grade II* listed building that has a lapsed planning consent for conversion into holiday accommodation. The walled garden leads down to the broad terrace offering a dramatic view of the Thaw Valley. There is a large south facing sheltered courtyard immediately to the rear of the farmhouse and a large area to the front with informal gardens and parking for many cars. The farmhouse is accessed from a long private drive, shared with the neighbouring farm.
