SMALLEST HOUSE IN THE UK

WELCOME to the pretty 122-inch-tall red dwelling that lays claim to the title of the UK's smallest house. Basking in the sunshine of Wales this 72 inch wide former fisherman's “cottage” attracts thousands of tourists to the west coast each-year - despite only being able to fit FOUR people at any one time. According to the five members of staff who now offer tours of the tiny two-room home, in the sleepy fishing village of Conwg, Wales during peak season dozens of excited visitors from as far afield as America, Japan and Australia line up to get a glimpse of this quirky 16th century dwelling. Local tour guide Anne Fletcher, 58, explained why the pint-sized home is a mecca for mini-home spotters the world over
