Cottage on the Cwm

Set at the top of a country lane in Cwmafan on a working farm, enjoy picturesque views from almost every window of this charming, converted farm building that provides the perfect setting for a get-together with family and friends. Nestled between Port Talbot and Afan Forest Park, this peaceful spot in Cwmafan on the fringes of Cwmavon is a haven for keen outdoor explorers. Afan Forest Park, 11.5 miles away, offers something for the whole family to enjoy, with over 130 miles of mountain bike trails, a visitors’ centre, a shop and a café, whilst thrill seekers can get the blood pumping at Zip World Tower, 22 miles away, nestled in the Rhigos mountain range. From countryside to coast, enjoy a bucket and spade day at nearby Port Talbot, 3.5 miles away, which boasts one of Wales’ longest beaches, or at Aberavon Beach (6 miles), perfect for swimming and kayaking.

Quaint to the core, perfectly combining original features including exposed stonework and ceiling beams, with extra special homely touches. The open-plan lounge/diner boasts a true warmth that beckons tired travellers to unwind; fire up the roaring wood burner to keep toes toasty long into the evening. The farmhouse ambience is mirrored in the kitchen, which boasts country cottage décor reminiscent of the building’s rich heritage, inspiring you to rustle up something delicious with your tasty local produce. The contemporary wet room downstairs offers the perfect spot to wash off after a long day on the local trails. Upstairs, enjoy wonderful sea views framed by the Juliet balcony in the cosy king-size bedroom with a Smart TV, or retire to the twin zip-and-link bedroom (can be made up as a king-size) or twin zip-and-link bedroom (can be made up as a super-king-size) with an additional single bed; sumptuously soft linens ensure a peaceful slumber. This room also has a Smart TV. Before bedtime, soak weary waking muscles in the free-standing bath in the light and bright family bathroom on the first floor.

Catch some lovely sunrises with your morning coffee or beautiful sunsets with a glass of something chilled from the comfort of the peaceful patio, or soak up the serenity of the surrounding working farm as you slip into the fantastic hot tub. Outside, you’ll also find private parking for three cars, as well as a bike store.
