2 Bed in Blackmill (oc-c29623)

Surrounded by picturesque nature and wildlife, including kingfishers, owls and otters, experience the very best of traditional rural Welsh village life at this idyllic riverside cottage boasting a wealth of footpaths and cycling routes beginning from the doorstep.


Where period charm and homely touches coexist in perfect harmony, the spacious yet cosy lounge/diner boasts a truly soothing atmosphere; the roaring wood burner, exposed brickwork fireplace and calming cool tones set the scene for ultimate relaxation at the end of a busy day's adventure. The wonderfully green views and charming contemporary cottage style décor in the kitchen/diner will inspire you to whip up something delicious with your fabulous new local flavours. Upstairs, you''ll find two bedrooms, one double and one twin, that both feature sumptuously soft linens and wonderful views to wake up to before kick-starting your next adventure with an invigorating shower in the stylish and sophisticated contemporary wet room. Outside, a beautiful decking area sweeps around the cottage ensuring there is plenty of opportunity to chase the sun or shade; dine alfresco on the decking, soothed by the sounds of the adjoining river, as children picnic on the large lawn.


Nestled on the fringes of the quiet village of Brynmenyn, this secluded riverside spot is the ultimate escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life; from the doorstep, join the riverside trail to be rewarded with pure peace and tranquillity. With over 100 acres of meadows, gardens and mature woodlands, pack a picnic and head to Bryngarw Country Park 2 miles away to reconnect with the great outdoors. Those looking to answer the call of the coast can head to the bustling seaside town of Porthcawl 11 miles away, home to a seafront Esplanade, gloriously golden sands and plenty of excellent cafés and restaurants. Visit St Fagan's National Museum of History which is Wales' most visited heritage attraction, visit the Edwardian botanical gardens at Dyffryn Gardens or will you spot a deer at Margam Country Park.
