LAST Christmas, Gavin and Stacey was the TV show everyone was waiting for, and now there’s another autumn treat to delight fans.
But rather than just standing outside of Trinity Street when you head to Barry Island to take a look around the filming locations, you can actually book to stay inside one of the famous houses used on the show.
The home in question is called ‘Lush House’ (of course), which fans will recognise as Doris’ home used in the original series and last year’s finale.
You can now book out the entire house on Trinity Street with Sykes Cottages.
Inside you’ll find a kitchen fitted with everything you need for your stay – including a hob for whipping up one of Gwen’s signature omelettes.
There’s a cosy lounge with bright orange chairs and a squishy-looking sofa with a working fireplace.
The lounge is open plan connecting to the dining room which has room for family meals or even a curry night.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with a double bed, and another with twin beds and a bunk – which has room for three, along with a bathroom.
During the summertime, take advantage of the great weather by heading out onto the deck in the garden.
The house sleeps up to five guests, in November, the house can be booked out for £631 for seven nights – which works out as £18 per person.
If you really want to hit all the Gavin and Stacey spots, make sure to head to all the local gems.
Spend some time on Whitmore Bay, in the arcade on the slots, or grab a coffee from Marco’s Cafe.
Barry Island Pleasure Park is bound to be a hit with the kids – take a ride on the Giant Wheel, zip down the Log Flume, and head onto the spooky Ghost Train.
For another filming location, stop in at The Tadross Hotel which doubles as Uncle Bryn’s local, The Dolphin.
Along with a drink, you can watch live music performances, have a game of pool and enjoy plenty of screened football matches.
Head into Barry town centre to explore its independent shops, cafés and the Goodsheds urban market.
Goodsheds is a new development on an old dockyard with street food and bars and lots of independent shops.
Another spot nearby is Porthkerry Country Park which has 220 acres of woodland and meadowland, and is crossed by a huge Victorian-era viaduct.
There’s also a children’s play area, a café and a number of picnic tables.
The Sun also recently interviewed the real owners of the Barry cafe that appears in Gavin and Stacey.
