Machstablau will restore and re-use the old stables and coach house building linked to Plas Machynlleth. The stables, often known locally as the Kennels, are a Grade ll listed building that was built in the 1850s.
This attractive and distinctive building, owned by Machynlleth Town Council had been disused for some years and had fallen into disrepair, while being a financial burden on the town.
The project aims to restore the building, keeping its architectural and historical features and to create a 36-bed lodge type accommodation for visitors to the town and the area. The coach house will become a community facility that can be used for activities, workshops, and events.
In the Press
An online Cambrian News article (14.10.24) told the story behind the Machstablau project and a video takes us inside to have a look at the horse stalls that will become sleeping accommodation for visitors.
“Machynlleth’s Old Stables/ Hen Stablau renovation is to capture historic discoveries as ground breaks on the renovation works.
The Hen Stablau team are working with people aged nine to 90 to document the works and capture the oral history of the 1840s building, once a stables and kennels for the Londonderry family who lived at the nearby Y Plas Georgian mansion.”
