New Beginnings for a Historic Building: Cellar 62 Opens Its Doors (in the 'old' Angel Inn)

CMArchitectural is proud to share the successful transformation of a cherished Llandeilo landmark—Cellar 62 at The Angel Inn has officially opened and is already proving to be a popular destination. 🍷

This milestone follows the granting of listed building consent for sensitive and respectful works to the former Angel Inn, a historic property rich in local heritage. The building has now been thoughtfully reimagined and divided into two distinct spaces, setting the stage for new independent businesses to thrive in the heart of the town.

✨ Honouring the Past, Embracing the Future

The project was carried out with the support of Carmarthenshire County Council, reflecting a growing emphasis on the adaptive reuse of historic buildings—breathing new life into familiar places while safeguarding their architectural character. Inside Cellar 62, great care has been taken to maintain the original warmth and charm that once defined The Angel, creating an atmosphere that feels both authentic and inviting.

A special acknowledgment goes to Paul and Tracey, whose craftsmanship and detailing in the early years of The Angel were fully honoured in this latest chapter. Their original work served as inspiration and foundation, with the design team ensuring a seamless blend between the historic and the new.

🥂 A Welcoming Return

Since opening, Cellar 62 has quickly become a local favourite, offering a vibrant yet nostalgic setting reminiscent of the ‘old’ Angel. The result is more than just a new business—it's a community space reborn, where history and hospitality meet.

This project stands as a testament to what careful design and deep local understanding can achieve: regeneration without erasure—where the future is shaped in harmony with the past.
