In a previous series of 04Wal, Aled Samuel visited TV presenter Sarra Elgan as she began work on a barn conversion in the Vale of Glamorgan.  Sarra and her rugby player husband, Simon Easterby, are still hard at work on their home as Aled catches up with their progress.

Some of the plans have now changed but the work on transforming an old farm building into a comfortable home is coming along nicely, with most of the building work complete.

“We’re half way there and I’m very happy with the progress. We’ve had a few changes of heart – mainly swapping rooms about – but the plans for the outside have remained the same,” explains Sarra.

“We’ve decided to keep things open-plan and make the most of the space we have, as well as the fantastic views. The next step is the one I’m looking forward to most – choosing the kitchen, bathroom, fixtures and fittings. I can’t wait!”
