Country Gem!

We had a delightful week at this beautiful property, It was comfortable and fully equipped. On arrival we were met by Wendy who was very welcoming and she allowed us early entry to the property which we much appreciated. The countryside around St Lythan's is very beautiful and convenient for all main tourist attractions in South Wales.

The Best

Amazing place to spend a relaxing week. Excellent accommodation, a home not a holiday let, one of the best you will ever find. Loads of facilities nearby, shops, tourist places, walks a great pub, short trip to Cardiff. Central for The Gower, Brecon etc. Superb location. The hosts could not be more welcoming or friendly. Wendy and Ian were absolutely delightful.

An Exceptional Stay

We had a magnificent time in these lovely guest quarters: spacious, comfortable, immaculate, fully equipped – and with stunning views across the countryside. Our delightful hosts, Wendy and Ian, were always available to answer questions or provide information. The property is close to Cardiff and other areas of interest such as St. Fagan's National Museum of History. We have stayed in many VRBO rentals, but this one was among the very best!

Perfect holiday Yun Wales

Immaculately clean house and beautiful grounds, very helpful welcoming owner, great location if you have a car - within easy and quick reach to hiking places, open air museums, National Trust places, beaches, supermarkets... Our family especially enjoyed the birds singing in the garden every morning, the relaxing bath in the evenings, the lovely beds. It’s a shame the holiday was so short!

Amazing property and location

Wendy and Ian were fantastic to deal with. The place is absolutely stunning, set in a beautiful location… even in winter! The house has everything you need and more. They are very accommodating with our change of dates, and really couldn’t ask any more. I have already recommended this accomodation to friends.

Gorgeous cottage, lovely location

The owners are lovely and very welcoming and the cottage definitely has the wow factor. It is well equipped with everything we could possibly need and more! We loved exploring the surrounding areas and having such a gorgeous cottage to come back to at the end of a busy day. The location is ideal for travelling into Cardiff (20 minutes by car) with a local friendly pub and a restaurant within walking distance. We were really sad to leave at the end of our holiday - hope to return soon.

Why they chose this property

Although this property is next to our home, it has total privacy. Access is via electric security gates. The surroundings are peaceful and private yet close to main roads with a local pub within a good walking distance. It’s a short journey to Cardiff City centre and many other attractions eg beaches, Cardiff Bay, Welsh Folk Museum, Dyffryn Gardens, and so much more all within less than ten miles.

What makes this property unique

Peaceful location and very close to the Cardiff City Centre with the convenience of being at most locations in very little travel time.
Tinkinswood and St Lythans burial chambers closeby with St Lythans Church thought to date back to 13th Century 3 minute walk away.
Dyffryn Gardens and house (National Trust) approx 3 mins by car.
