In this lovely house Jen houses the largest collection & stock of Antique Welsh Quilts and Welsh Blankets anywhere in the World.
They have a constantly changing stock of over a thousand quilts and blankets mostly made between 1820 and 1939 and as they were hand made, each is unique.
Valerie discovers that the old Welsh quilts are really soft and Jen explains how she cleans up some of her finds so as to make them more acceptable.
