Stunning late Georgian Country House with fishing on the River Towy<br /><br /> <b>Description</b><br /><br />Bryntowy Mansion is an elegant late Georgian Grade II Listed country house. According to its listing, it was “Designed in 1830s but not completed until 1850. Built by William Bonville Junior…Later alterations, c.1890, to the front and the addition of coach house and stables to rear…listed “for its special architectural interest as a well-preserved mid C19 small country house.”<br /><br />The property enjoys an elevated position in the famous Towy valley overlooking the river upon which it enjoys valuable fishing rights. Over the years the property has been sympathetically renovated and refurbished both in the house and the outbuildings to produce a most comfortable period home.
