About this property
Llanharry 1.5 miles. This delightful single-storey annexe is attached to the owners home, in an isolated position, close to the village of Llanharry and within reach of both Bridgend and Cardiff. Access to this lovely cottage is via a long track and once you arrive you will find a holiday home that exudes comfort and style. You enter this cottage via a raised decked patio with ramp access directly into the superb open plan living area. Here, you can relax whilst watching the TV after a busy day out and about, perhaps with the electric woodburner-effect stove on to provide additional warmth and whilst cooking a hearty meal in the well-equipped kitchen. The bedrooms consist of a comfortable king-size double bedroom and a twin, which has views of a paddock area, and completing the cottage is a modern shower room. Why not open the patio doors and enjoy a drink or meal on the patio on a sunny day, whilst the dogs run round the enclosed lawned garden? Llanharry, just 1.5 miles away has two pubs and a church, whilst the town of Bridgend has a shopping village, and Cardiff is well worth visiting and has something for everyone. In addition to visiting the nearby towns and cities, you can also enjoy the beaches at Porthcawl and Llantwit Major. A superb base for exploring this part of South Wales.
The village of Llanharry is situated close to the M4 motorway, between the town of Bridgend and the capital city of Cardiff. Llanharry has a church called St. Illtud, which was re-built in 1867-8, and two pubs, The Bear Inn, which was a school in the 19th century and The Fox and Hounds, known to date back to the Tudor times.

Only thing was cleanliness . Although most of the place was clean the oven hadn't been cleaned as we had to clean dried greasy fat off the hobs from the last tennents , and the food / drink mats had dried food and split drinks on them , other than this rest was spotless

It is in an ideal location to visit anywhere in South Wales we managed a day trip to Pembrokeshire. The annex is clean and well presented, with a grass area which is secure.
