Looking around this striking beamed and wood-panelled property on the outskirts of Swansea really makes you feel like you've stepped back in time.
Hidden away in the Gower woods, this amazing five-bedroom family home feels cosy, warm, inviting and regal.
You'd be forgiven for thinking it was a National Trust property or other stately home and not one up for auction for us normal folk instead.

While just a short walk from Three Cliffs Bay, this property in Hey Boys in Parkmill feels a world away from civilisation: the perfect house to come home from work to and completely relax and switch off.
Traditional furnishings and carpets make the living spaces feel special and historic, while the large country-style kitchen would make the perfect space to cook up a storm for loved ones - not least because it features a gorgeous, traditional aga.
What's more, the beautiful home has several floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and stunning views of the woodland. Perfect.
Whilst the garden and some of the downstairs rooms need a little TLC, we think this charming house would make a wonderful home.
It's spacious enough that family members wouldn't ever be stepping on anyone's toes, but cosy enough to feel close to your family, should you want to spend time with them!
It's the kind of home friends and guests would immediately relax in - and the kind of home you'd miss whenever you're away.
The ground floor comprises three large reception rooms and a kitchen-diner, whilst the first floor features five bedrooms, a separate office/playroom, toilet and bathroom.
At the front of the property there's a shared drive with off-road parking for up to four cars, as well as a single-sized detached garage and steps up to the large garden which comes with two strong, brick-built sheds.
The garden backs onto field and whilst "overgrown," with a bit of gardening work it would make a fantastic outdoor space to host guests on an evening or run around the sunshine in summer days.
Plus, the property benefits from more than half an acre of woodland, leading down to a striking riverside footpath.
Ground floor of the property
The whole property feels untouched and traditional and we imagine living here would feel like stepping back in time to an era before our obsession with technology and social media.
There's plenty of space to entertain guests or just to dive nose-deep into a good book or watch the world go by through the stunning, huge windows with fantastic views.
Dawsons, the estate agency selling the property, says: "Hey Boys is a five-bedroom detached property in a fantastic secluded location in the charming village of Parkmill.
"Just a short walk from the world renowned Three Cliffs Bay, and with woodland and coastal walks, horse riding, golf course, pub and local shops all on the doorstep.
"The property briefly comprises three large reception rooms and kitchen/diner to the ground floor, with five bedrooms, office/playroom, W.C. and bathroom to the first floor.
"A particular feature of the property is the unique faux-wood panelling and solid wood block flooring to the reception rooms.
"To the front there is a shared driveway with off road parking for up to four cars, single detached garage, steps up to a large garden with two brick built sheds.
"The garden backs onto fields and is currently overgrown. The property also benefits from just over half an acre of mature woodland to the front, leading down to a riverside footpath."
Photos from the property show the true beauty of the living spaces - they're just crying out for a little TLC in order to be more suitable to the modern family.
We wonder whether the future owners would replace the traditional wooden cupboards in the kitchen with more modern furnishings, or perhaps change the bench-style kitchen seating for stools or dining chairs.
And would they keep the wooden panelling in the living areas, the beamed ceiling and the quaint details - or would they modernise the inside of the property?
First floor of the property
Waking up on a crisp Sunday morning must be wonderful here.
Rolling over in bed and opening the curtains to the sunshine streaming in across the lush, green shrubs and trees is the stuff of idyllic Welsh dreams.
Also the stuff of dreams: the 1970s-esque curtain in the bathroom is wild.
This coupled with the turquoise bath and washbasin makes for an unusual bathroom which we doubt the property's new owner would keep - but it wouldn't be unique.
The property is currently up for sale by online auction by local estate agency Dawsons.
It's priced at £250,000 and viewings are "highly recommended," agents say.
