  • A Grade II-listed cottage set within the grounds of a former ironworks
  • Visit the Blaenavon Heritage Railway and Iron Works
  • A great base for families to enjoy the Brecon Beacons National Park
Property code: 82707

A sympathetically restored cottage set within the grounds of a historic site, the Nantyglo Ironworks complex, perfect for families with many ancient castles, mountains, rivers and waterfalls to explore.

Nestled amongst the rolling hills of the Welsh countryside, this charming cottage is perfect for families looking for outdoor adventures. Located in the Ebbw-Fach valley in Southeast Wales, you can immerse yourselves in the rural tranquillity and soak up the breathtaking views. Enjoy walks from your doorstep or venture further afield to the Brecon Beacons National Park to the north.

Bursting with heritage, the Roundhouse Towers on the farm are a reminder of the area’s industrial past. You have the convenience of shops and eateries in Brynmawr and Nantyglo (1 mile). Beautifully restored, this delightful Grade-II listed cottage has a contemporary feel with neutral tones and natural materials complementing the occasional original feature. You enter into the light and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where you can all enjoy the sense of space, whether you’re cooking up some treats, sitting at the table or lounging on the sofas. When it’s time to retire to bed, head upstairs to the immaculately presented bedrooms which both have an en-suite shower room. Outside, you can enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine on the terrace, or you may prefer to toast a marshmallow on the communal firepit. There is also bike or canoe storage available. Electric vehicle charging is available on site. This is at an extra charge paid directly to the owner.

Lovers of the great outdoors will be keen to discover the varied landscape of the Brecon Beacons, with lakes, mountains, caves and waterfalls all within 20 miles. Walkers will enjoy hiking up either Sugar Loaf Mountain or Table Mountain (both within 11.5 miles), which offer stunning views from the top, whereas historians might be happier with a visit to the Big Pit National Coal Museum (6 miles). For those hoping to sample some of Wales’ finest produce, head to one of many independent shops/eateries in market towns such as Crickhowell, Abergavenny (10 miles) and Brecon (20 miles).

A nice clean and warm cottage. Our only criticism was the lack of some utensils, especially as we were cooking a Christmas dinner. Good area for exploring the Brecon Beacons, although the weather was not kind to us.

Booked for 2 adults and 2 children for a short weekend visiting family. Fantastic accommodation: well kept, clean and warm with amazing scenery. Good location for a base to explore the Beacons and enjoy activities nearby such as Big Pit. Children (8 and 6) thought it was amazing too as they had opportunity to meet the other residents (pigs, dog andRead more a horse)! Hosts are really efficient and on hand to answer any queries. Definitely coming back. Hide

William was perfect for our holiday requirements. Roomy yet compact; squeaky clean; stylish decor; comfy beds; peaceful location yet close to amenities and road links and helpful, friendly hosts. What more could we ask?!

A well-equipped cottage which has been newly and tastefully renovated. Attractive setting amidst old farm buildings and the historic round tower. A good location for getting into the Brecon Beacons (just 5 miles from the stunning Llangynidr viewpoint for example) and easy to get places like Aberystwyth. Good range of supermarkets etc. nearby. NantyRead moreglo itself doesn't have too many eating options, and few late night taxi operators. We had dinner one night at the Walnut Tree Inn which was amazing. Hide
