Courtyard cottage with extensive private grounds and free WiFi

Hafod Y Wennol (the Swallow's summer dwelling) is a converted barn which boasts a stunning location in the courtyard of an old country estate. Overlooking the farmers' fields of sheep, guests in this cottage also have access to the large lawn directly outside with garden furniture shaded by giant beech trees. Visitors are often found relaxing with a drink, in summer having family barbecues enjoying the parkland views, or watching the sunset.
Although you might feel you've got away from it all, the farm cottage is deceptively well-connected to modern life with supermarkets and the hustle and bustle of modern life just a few minutes drive away. It is ideally placed for many of Wales' must see attractions, including the city of Swansea , the Gower beaches and the Brecon Beacons. The cottage is decorated in traditional style. Upon entering the cottage, a central hallway leads to all other parts of the cottage. To the left is a well-equipped farmhouse kitchen. To the right, through double doors is the lounge. Cosy and comfortable, the lounge has a wood burning stove set in a fireplace made from local blue sandstone and Welsh slate and an HDTV with Freesat (over 120 channels). There are two bedrooms upstairs, a double and a twin room, between which is a bathroom with an over bath shower. The bedrooms have comfortable beds and views over the courtyard and surrounding countryside. Suitable for families with children, couples, and business travellers.

Lovely cottage in beautiful location

The cottage is cosy and warm and has all the necessary facilities to have an enjoyable stay. The kitchen is well appointed, the shower has good pressure, the beds are comfortable and the Netflix (and lots of other channels) worked well. The wifi reception isn’t super strong however it worked fine. There are lovely walks from the property and Neath is close by. There is comprehensive info on local shops, history and restaurants etc. Would definitely recommend.
