Tucked on the northern outskirts of Barry, this delightful pair of cottages offer magical views over the Vale of Glamorgan and Dyffryn Country Estate. This exceptional property, comprised of former farm buildings converted into two adjoining cottages, is ideal for large families or groups of friends looking to celebrate a memorable occasion amid the picturesque landscapes of Wales. Located around 9 miles from Cardiff and near to the Glamorgan Heritage Coast, it appeals to those seeking both adventure and relaxion.

These cottages have a captivating interior where high ceilings adorned with original wooden beams meet the warmth of stone floors, creating an atmosphere of rustic elegance. Each cottage has an open-plan lounge with plush sofas, which flow seamlessly into a dining area and onto an L-shaped, fitted kitchen, which is well equipped for feeding a crowd. Floor-to-ceiling patio doors in the lounge open to a private, decked balcony, inviting the outside in and offering panoramic views over the Vale of Glamorgan. Sleeping arrangements comprise a king-size and a double bedroom in both cottages, each with an en-suite bath or shower room. The exterior is equally impressive with a sun-kissed lawn for daytime relaxation, alongside a BBQ area, secure bike shed and ample storage for sports equipment.

One of the most popular destinations in the Vale of Glamorgan, Barry and Barry Island combine to form a fascinating seaside town. Enjoy lazy beach days on Whitmore Bay, amuse the kids at Barry Island Pleasure Park, or venture to Watch Tower Bay for a range of water sports. Head to Cardiff for city shops and restaurants, events at the Millennium Stadium, and all-weather activities including an indoor water park and international white water rafting centre. In the other direction, the Glamorgan Heritage Coast boasts 14 miles of unspoilt coastline and spectacular wildlife-watching opportunities.
