Description
Tyla Cottage is a delightful period cottage occupying a remarkable elevated position within the heart of the Vale of Glamorgan. The house enjoys breathtaking southerly views across rolling countryside towards the Bristol Channel and the distant coastline of North Somerset.

Believed to date back over 200 years, the cottage has evolved over time through a series of sympathetic additions, creating a highly individual family home of considerable charm and character. Original features sit comfortably alongside modern enhancements, resulting in a property that is both welcoming and practical for modern living.

The entrance hall opens into the sitting room, a wonderfully atmospheric space forming part of the original cottage. A substantial inglenook-style fireplace with wood-burning stove provides a focal point, complemented by period detailing and flagstone flooring. From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the generous dining room, which in turn connects to the impressive reception room.

Both the dining room and reception room are orientated to maximise the spectacular outlook, with bi-fold doors opening on to a broad flagstone terrace. These beautifully proportioned rooms provide exceptional entertaining space and enjoy an abundance of natural light throughout the day.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of traditionally styled units complemented by solid timber work surfaces and a Belfast sink. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room with space for laundry appliances, additional storage and independent access to the outside. A ground floor WC completes the accommodation.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a particularly impressive room, enjoying a dual aspect and far-reaching countryside views. Open to the pitch of the roof, it offers a wonderful sense of volume and character and benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room.

Bedroom two is a generous double bedroom with fitted storage, while bedroom three also enjoys attractive rural views and excellent proportions. Bedroom four is positioned to the rear of the property and is served by the family bathroom, which is fitted with both a roll-top bath and separate shower. In addition, a dedicated office provides ideal space for home working and could be used as a fifth bedroom

Outside, Tyla Cottage is approached via a shared access track leading to a private driveway. Ample parking is available to both the front and rear of the property, together with a detached double garage and a two-bay stable block.

The gardens have been carefully arranged to make the most of the exceptional setting, with a substantial south-facing terrace providing an outstanding vantage point from which to enjoy the panoramic views. Beyond, the gently sloping paddock creates an attractive backdrop.

Location
Tyla Cottage is situated in the highly regarded village of Bonvilston, one of the Vale of Glamorgan's most sought-after residential locations. Positioned between the market town of Cowbridge (approximately five miles) and Cardiff city centre (approximately eight miles), the village offers an attractive balance of rural surroundings and excellent connectivity.
Cowbridge is renowned for its vibrant High Street, offering an excellent selection of independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants, traditional public houses and everyday shopping facilities, including supermarkets.
