The owner was very welcoming. The cabin is set-up with all the mod cons for a comfortable stay, all for a modest rent. We visited the local pub which served good food and has a prize winning selection of ales. The location is convenient to explore the region such as going into Cardiff city, venturing inland to the Brecon Beacon mountain range or exploring the heritage coast of the Vale of Glamorgan, or for accessing the local historic Taff Trail that passes close by.

On the downside some background traffic noise was apparent from the A470 road that runs through the valley but the significance of this would depend on how used or sensitive you are to traffic noise and probably would even be noticed by urban dwellers. Also this was counteracted by bird song coming from the surrounding woodland. All in all a very economical place to stay being, a quirky but clean tidy , good quality property for a very reasonable rent.
