A beautiful Stone Cottage in the heart of the stunning Afan Valley Forest Park, within the village of Cymmer. Walking distance to the pub 'The Refreshment Rooms' popular with Mountain Bikers & Walkers alike. Secure Bike storage - brick built store, with a solid metal security door, anchor points & wall racks. Pool Table Afan Forest Park Visitor Centre - 6 minutes Glyncorrwg Ponds Mountain Bike Centre - 6 minutes Gower - 53 minute drive Brecon Beacons - 40 minute drive Bike Park Wales 49 minutes drive Set within the spectacular Afan Valley, with stunning views to be enjoyed the cottage is midway between the two mountain biking centres to offer the choice of which routes to take each day. The local area has walking, hiking and mountain biking routes in abundance for you to choose from. You can climb the hills for the higher viewpoints or simply walk or cycle along the disused railway which has been turned into a path weaving its way through the valley to follow the path of the river. The 2 main bedrooms have Ziplock beds, these can be made up as either double beds, or 2 singles. Bunk Beds are in the 3rd bedroom - please do state the arrangement you would like on booking.
Set within the spectacular Afan Forest Park, known locally as 'Little Switzerland' is just the most beautiful area to walk & mountain bike through, with dedicated trails to help you enjoy the best views available. The old railway line (reached within minutes of leaving the cottage door, both on foot & by bike) has been converted to a walking & cycling route through the valley for easier treks, plus of course the hills & mountains for adrenaline filled excursions. The cottage is a perfect base to explore the Afan Forest on foot or bike. It's also midway between the Brecon Beacons & the Gower, both of which are utterly worth the drive - we love waking up & deciding which way to head in the morning! (Top tip - if it's raining on one side of the hills, it is worth checking the weather forecast on the other side of the hills! There is a small town 4 miles away with supermarkets in, a mobile butcher stops outside the house around 3.30 a few days a week & the Ice Cream van sells everything from Ice Cream to toilet paper. Please note, there are no stairgates fitted so if you think they will be required please bring travel stairgates with you.
