A couple spend about £780,000 converting a former 1930s bed-and-breakfast property into a modern three-bedroom home. During extensions, they discover a Second World War bomb shelter in their garden and renovate it into a bar styled as a “speakeasy.”

The articles describe how the shelter becomes part of the home’s interior offering, rather than remaining an unused outbuilding. One outlet focuses on the couple’s overall renovation and the final layout as a sleek, family-ready three-bed house, while also highlighting the shelter’s transformation into a glitzy bar. Both accounts center on the same discovery in the garden and the subsequent conversion work, with similar emphasis on cost and the shelter’s new role within the property.
