About this property

Pontyclun 1.5 miles. Offering you and your loved one the ultimate countryside experience, Nuthatch Barn can be found nestled on a working farm in the quaint village of Hensol, near to the convenient amenities of Pontyclun. A stunning stone-built property with a sociable open-plan layout, this Welsh abode is a true delight at any time of year. Begin your relaxing retreat by kicking back and relaxing with a refreshing beverage in hand as you settle down on the sofa and flick on the television, or gather around the charming dining table for a romantic meal for two, the amply-equipped kitchen offering every essential appliance you could need, even a dishwasher so you don't have to worry about the washing up on your escape. Moving up onto the first floor you can find the spacious double bedroom settled beneath the characterful beams of the room, offering a haven to rest your head amongst following a refreshing rinse in the adjoining shower room. When you rise, take a cup of tea out onto the patio and let your canine companion roam around the enclosed area, before selecting an outfit from the ample storage space in the bedroom and heading out on the day's adventure. Although remote, the local area makes a lovely spot for the avid walker, with the River Ely being well-worth exploring, followed by a delicious dinner in the nearby pub, Miskin Arms. There are plenty of local attractions for you to enjoy, with Llanerch Vineyards just next door with its café/restaurant and farm shop, you’re also just 1 mile from The Vale Hotel and Golf Course and the Miskin Manor, both with their restaurant and spa facilities. Slightly further afield rests Pontyclun, also quaint in character, here you can find a wider selection of cuisine options, including shops where you can pick up your own fresh ingredients, as well as a railway station with direct links to Cardiff and Swansea. Local historic towns of Cowbridge and Llantrisant, with their leisure centre/swimming pool, and The Royal Mint Visitor Center, are well worth a visit. Spend a day at Bridgend for the ultimate shopping experience at the McArthurGlen Designer Outlet, or venture to Port Talbot where you can find a wide range of quirky attractions varying from the Baked Bean Museum of Excellence to treetop adventures at Go Ape!, there's something here for everyone, not forgetting its own beautiful beach for those summer days. The capital city of Cardiff is also within driving distance, with a wide selection of golf courses along the way, it offers its own nature reserve, museums, eateries of all kinds and a vibrant nightlife well-worth experiencing. With so much excitement in easy reach, Nuthatch Barn is an exceptional choice for your romantic escape to Wales. Note: This property can be booked with 1021868, together sleeping six guests.

Pontyclun can be found sitting within the County Borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf in Wales, offering its guests a rural and relaxing location from which to explore this beautiful area. The village hosts a good selection of shops and eateries as well as wonderful nature, while nearby Cardiff offers a more vibrant experience, with lots of history, art and culture to explore around every corner. In driving distance of Barry and Port Talbot too, Pontyclun is the ultimate base.

    I would definitely recommend this cottage.

    But my wife and I both agree the furniture and bed mattress are looking tired and feeling uncomfortable, our biggest issue is the bathroom the smell of mold or sewage or both was very unpleasant.
