The popular TV presenter has been renovating a pub but has encountered various problems

BBC’s Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts has undertaken his own property project. The presenter is renovating a pub in Blaencwm, Wales.

It's a challenging time to be going into the hospitality industry. I really am like a duck, I’m trying to keep smooth on the surface but I am paddling like crazy underneath to try and make this happen on a very, very limited budget.”

The whole stressful journey is being documented for a potential future programme called 'Oops I bought a pub!' but deep into the project WalesOnline managed to get an exclusive sneak peek inside the pub in its current state. The project has been divided up into three phases and it is still very much in phase one - the main pub and bedrooms which Martin hopes to open in the autumn.

Currently, the outside area is a mix of mud and laid foundations plus there's a wooden lodge used for storage, and the remains of a rear room that Martin envisages being transformed into a private space with its own entrance for up to 12 people that can be hired for private parties and even host some of his celebrity friends when they come to visit. But there's still so much to do.
