Miner's Cottage South Wales Pool Table Log Burner Mountain Views

Ex-miner's cottage made from stone & unexpectedly spacious with 3 floors. The cottage has a log burner to get cosy around. Blaengwynfi is a rural location but only 20 minutes from the beach with great fish n chips! Also close to Swansea & Cardiff if you fancy a bit of shopping. The Brecon Beacons are not too far and there are several castles and waterfalls to see as well as mountains to climb such as Pen-Y-Fan. The cottage is great for hiking, cycling, families and is also dog-friendly.

Great rustic, rural cottage

My family stayed in the property for over a month, while we explored Wales and visited some friends in the Swansea area. The small village up in the mountains was absolutely beautiful, and the check in process was simple with a lock box and independent arrival time. Lorna was responsive when we had questions and had reccomendations for exploring the area and restaurants.Anyone staying should plan on topping up the electric and gas immediately. We were aware of the pay as you go scheme, but 3 of us got to the property late on a Thursday and were out exploring all day Friday, and then left first thing Saturday (due to split arrival dates of our family) to stay in a hotel in London. Despite very minimal usage and no heating at all - When we returned Sunday the electric and gas were off, and the companies wouldn't take payment over the phone. Luckily you can pay at the post office just a few doors up, and I happened to get there with 1 minute to spare before closing. Not a problem but renters should be prepared. Also if you are renting for an extended visit know that laundry facilities are minimum of 20 minutes away and expensive.The accomodations are rustic but adequate.Everyone in the village was very friendly and accommadating.

A shortbreak in Wales

We stayed in the house for 4 nights with our grandson. It was comfortable and well supplied. The views from the back of the property were across the valley and stunning.

Heerlijk huisje

Fijn ruim huis met alle faciliteiten. Prima uitvalsbasis voor wandelingen. Een auto is aan te bevelen, je moet even rijden om bij de echt mooie plekken te komen.
