The Cwtch shepherd's hut

Liked: Location close to local amenities. Clean and tidy. We Brough 2 small dogs and the garden paddock in front is stock fenced so we didn't have to tie them up the whole time which they very much enjoyed. Would come back and highly recommend. The summer house was a hit in the evening.

The Cwtch shepherd's hut

Liked: Loved the privacy and view’s especially of an evening, we stayed there over bonfire night and we could see the whole town’s fireworks it was beautiful. The fence paddock that the hit was in was great for our dog and the extra facilities for use during summer looked fun too. The hut itself was immaculate as with the kitchen and bathroom shed that was exclusive use for the hut.

Disliked: The only slight moan was the mattress was too big for the frame and would have been nice if the frame was made to fit the mattress.

The Cwtch shepherd's hut

Liked: Beautiful scenery, hut and facilities hut were lovely and clean. The hosts have thought about everything, cooking utensils, fridge, tv, barbecue, towels etc. The water feature in front of the hut was lovely and the gentle sound of water was so relaxing. We can't wait to do it again. There is so much to do around the area, we couldn't fit everything in.

Disliked: Nothing, we loved it all.

Local attractions

Walkers and bikers, this spot could be tailor-made for you. Just outside the farm there’s a network of footpaths, bridleways and mountain bike trails – no need to set foot (or wheel) on a road to get out into the great outdoors. BikePark Wales (25 minutes) offers downhill biking trails for all skill levels. A 15-minute drive leads to the Brecon Beacons National Park, with a mountain landscape leading up to Pen y Fan (45 minutes), the highest peak in southern Britain. If you want to improve your climbing or pot-holing skills before tackling the Brecon Beacons, indoor climbing facilities are just down the road at the Rock UK Summit Centre (25 minutes) in Trelewis. For gentler pursuits, freshwater fishing is available on Nant-y-Moel (45 minutes) and Meardy (20 minutes) reservoirs, or you can practise your swing at the golf course in Aberdare (10 minutes). If you fancy a day at the beach, you won’t beat the Gower Peninsula to the west of Swansea – start your tour in Mumbles (an hour) and end the day with a stroll along sandy Rhossili beach (an hour and a half) for views back to the Worms Head rock formation.
