Incredibly convenient to be so close to the station, this lovely home gave us a base to explore the shore, Cardiff, Brecon Beacons and more. The modern appliances made caring for the family easy, and we all slept like children in the comfortable beds.

Excellent Short Break

Lovely clean accommodation and well equipped with everything you need. Good communication, on hand if needed and the little extras were much appreciated. Location was handy for the M4, nearby supermarkets and train if you didn't want to drive. We enjoyed our three night break and managed to get around quite a bit to the coast and country park. Can thoroughly recommend a visit to Dyffryn Gardens (NT)

Fabulous Holiday Cottage

We just loved our stay. Comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen, and pretty private garden with covered patio and balcony. The welcoming touches, like fresh bread and Welsh cakes, were much appreciated. Very convenient to Bryngawr House, so perfect spot to stay if you’re attending a wedding and want to be close by. Hosts were helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

A real gem!

This is such a lovely property - we really enjoyed our time here. Beautifully kept, inside and out. Very comfortable and love the windows. Super convenient as it is a very short walk to the train platform. Also, a short drive to some amazing beaches. We would definitely stay again! Thanks for a great stay, wish we would've booked a longer time here!

A wonderful short stay!

We booked a last-minute short stay at the lodge and only wished we'd booked for longer. From the start of the booking process to checking out communication from the host was excellent. The Lodge itself was cozy and clean and had everything we needed. The welcome pack was a nice touch and the boys enjoyed the welsh cakes as much as they enjoyed watching the trains from the balcony. Would definitely stay aging when we're next in the area.

Catching up with old friends

We were in the area for a for a friend’s birthday party but decided to stay for a long weekend making the most of the beaches at Porthcawl and Ogmore. The property is very well appointed and finished to a high standard and served as a great base for the weekend. It has it’s own private garden and was very peaceful. One big benefit is being close the the railway station from which it’s only a 30 minute trip into Cardiff.

Lovely lodge

A very pleasant and cozy lodge that's well equipped. Lovely couple that run the lodge who were very friendly. There's some fantastic countryside within a few minutes drive. The only downsides where that there's a working man's club next door which can be a little noisy. And the train line also runs at the bottom of the garden (the clue's in the name) but they don't run late and are running quite slowly as they go past.

I've never felt so much love and hospitality at a stay. Mrs. Ceri was an amazing host. Her home felt like home. We dreaded leaving and coming back to the States. I don't have enough words to describe how greatful we are to have had so much an amazing host. We can not wait to visit/ stay again. We are already missing are home away.

Property brilliant. Well equipped and clean. Could get there on public transport as station 5 mins away. Pubs and foodie places a short walk into town and bigger franchises at the deigner outlet which is 3 miles away. The Mumbles and west Wales less than an hour in the car and Cardiff the same on the train. Very easy. Wonderful.
