About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A home from home for extended families / get-together

This is a real home from home, cosy and tastefully decorated with plenty of living space to socialise, perfect for a get together with friends or family.

Located within 1 mile of Junction 44 of the M4, this is also a great base if you wish to explore this part of Wales. South Wales valleys are just down the road. Gower, the Brecon Beacons, historical castles and the Vale of Neath’s waterfalls can all be reached within half an hour’s drive. There are leaflets and flyers in the house, all listing local excursions, visitor attractions and places of interest, but I’m more than happy to be contacted for help with information on local attractions and restaurants.

Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome, but please discuss before booking.
