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.

Liked: Cleanliness
This house is lovely and the host Frankie has it decorated to match many tastes and it is very comfortable and has absolutely everything you need and lots of things you don't realise you need, The beds are comfortable ensuring a goodnights rest. The bathrooms are spacious and everything is supplied. The kitchen was so well stocked it was home from home. The play room for the children was fabulous, our boys had so much fun.This was the first time the family had all been together for years and a great time was had by all. We were a group of mixed ages from 66 to 3.The house is fairly central to get to see the sights and is well worth a stay.The only niggle was the lack of a banister at the bottom of the stairs down to the kitchen, one of our boys wasn't paying attention and nearly went over the edge so extra adult attention was given for the rest of the stay.The garden is smashing and is a great relaxation area, plenty of room for kids to play, and a fab place for adult relaxation of an evening.Would definitely stay again .
