MYSTERIOUS: Couple transform wrecked old house into ultimate luxury retreat - You Need To See This

Two musicians have created the ultimate luxury retreat in Wales with huge glass windows to make the most of the incredible views over one of the finest wildlife reserves in the country. Located on the banks of the Afon Teifi with a front row seat overlooking the Teifi Marshes Nature Reserve, the Glasshouse is a wildlife lover’s dream near Cardigan.

Unbelievably, this modern glass-fronted building started life as a humble dilapidated cottage. But it's now been transformed into a contemporary sanctuary by classical musicians Tim and Kat. The retreat, which comes complete with a hot tub, wood burner, free standing bath and even a Nespresso coffee machine, can sleep up to 10 people for a smidge under £4,000 per week.

The showstopper feature is undoubtedly the floor-to-wall apex glass window which looks right over the marshlands, the enormous skies and the meandering estuary. To stay there is to "feel like you're in a David Attenborough documentary every day", said owner Kat. Birds, fish and otters are regular sights while the place comes with a small hidden lagoon, its own slipway and a "secret bench" amongst the willows - the perfect spot for otter spying.
