The new series of Wales' Home of the Year kicks off next week.

The first episode of the third series will be shown on Wednesday, November 6, at 7pm on BBC One Wales.

Radio 2 presenter and renovation enthusiast Owain Wyn Evans, interior designer Mandy Watkins, and architect Glen Thomas are returning as judges for the programme.

The series will see the judges travel across Wales in search of the Home of the Year 2024.

Homes from five regions will be visited, including the south east, south west, mid Wales, north east, and north west.

Homes will range from repurposed churches and renovated cowsheds to stylish terraces.

The judges will score three homes in each episode on architectural merit, interior design, and personal style.

The first stop is Beudu Dyfnant Cowshed, in the Machno Valley.

The homeowner, Simon, started converting a derelict barn in 2018, turning it into a home with hidden storage, a curved kitchen, and windows that frame the surrounding scenery.
