Description
Bryn Hir, an exquisite 19th-century Georgian Coach House, comprises two adjacent holiday cottages seamlessly connected to create a spacious four-bedroom retreat, accommodating up to eight guests. Nestled amidst the scenic beauty of the River Clydach, this property offers a unique holiday experience for groups or families. With captivating views, Bryn Hir boasts a private riverbank hot tub, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a luxurious four-poster bed. Situated on a private estate, this historic coach house provides an elegant base for exploring the Brecon Beacons National Park and the Gower Peninsula. The name "Bryn Hir" translates to "Long Mountain," referencing the mystical sandstone ridge of Mynydd Marchywel, offering enchanting walking opportunities with views overlooking the Plas Cilybebyll Estate.
Connected Holiday Retreat
Bryn Hir's layout allows for two independent cottages by simply locking the interconnecting door. Tucked at the end of a tree-lined drive within the estate courtyard, guests can enjoy various views—from the magnificent French Château-like manor house to expansive sheep-grazed parkland and a lively river teeming with wildlife. The private garden at the rear of the cottages features a central hot tub on a Gwrhyd sandstone patio, valued for its fossilized ripple patterns from a tropical lagoon millions of years ago.
Convenient Location
Despite its serene setting, Bryn Hir is conveniently located just 5 miles from the M4 motorway, making it ideal for both long weekends and extended breaks to explore the attractions of South Wales. The cottage provides a well-curated tourist information folder with suggested itineraries and historical insights into the estate.
Flexible Accommodations
Finding group accommodation with flexibility can be challenging, but Bryn Hir offers two fully equipped kitchens, two living rooms, two bathrooms, and two downstairs WCs—ideal for separating the cottage into two self-contained units if desired. The property accommodates up to 8 guests, striking a perfect balance between countryside tranquility and proximity to modern amenities in nearby towns like Pontardawe (2 miles), Neath (4 miles), and Swansea (10 miles).
Pet-Friendly Retreat with Hot Tub
Bryn Hir welcomes furry friends, with an enclosed rear garden and patio areas featuring a picket fence. Guests can explore private woodland walks directly from the cottage doorstep, ensuring a delightful stay for both humans and their four-legged companions.
