Stereo Amp plans

Stereo Integrated Amp build suggestions?

Im looking to build a stereo tube amp, this will be my first, but im not new to working with electrical components or building projects in the shed.
If im going to go to the effort of building a stereo amplifier i feel i would like to build something substantial- not just a little headphone amp.
Ive been researching valve technology for months now and im ready to fork out some money for some parts! I just want some experienced advice on what would be a good set of plans to follow, single ended, or push/pull.
At the moment i listen to music through a battery powered cambridge audio bluetooth speaker- its brilliant for taking with me into the shed. Id probably include a bluetooth input or add it on to the build in the future. The amp would only really need one set of inputs for a CD player, and eventually a turntable (which i guess i will need a pre-amp for)
Im not sure if i should be looking for plans which include a certain type of tube for all round inputs, it seems the normal setup is to have a pre-amp and a power amp seperately but id like to build a good all in one unit with some cool looking tubes. Any advice would be really appreciated. I am new to tubes but want to get into building as soon as possible!
