About this property

Mountain Coach House, part of the Pontardawe Country Estate in the ancient hamlet of Cilybebyll, offers a unique stay amidst stunning Welsh countryside. This nineteenth-century Georgian coach house, accommodating up to eight guests, consists of two adjoining cottages with four bedrooms, two cosy living rooms, two kitchens, and two bathrooms. Its characterful features include a four-poster bed, wood-burning stove, and historical touches, alongside modern comforts. Guests can relax in the garden’s hot tub, surrounded by views of a mountain stream, a picturesque bridge, and historic farm buildings.

The 120-acre Pontardawe Estate features woodland walks, farm trails, bluebell woods, and rivers, brimming with wildlife and ideal for picnics. It holds links to Welsh history, Arthurian legends, and World War II, with a Churchill’s Secret Army hideout designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Guests can explore the nearby Brecon Beacons, the Gower Peninsula, and charming local towns and villages. Essential amenities, including a shop, post office, and pub, are available in Rhos, one mile away, with a 24-hour supermarket in Pontardawe, two miles away.

Mountain Coach House is perfect for families or groups seeking a historic yet comfortable retreat with access to breathtaking natural beauty.

Mountain Coach House is set on the picturesque 120-acre Pontardawe Country Estate in Cilybebyll, near Pontardawe village. Surrounded by forests, bluebell woods, rivers, and open fields, the estate is an idyllic retreat between the Gower Peninsula and the Brecon Beacons National Park. The estate's courtyard lies beside the River Clydach and grazing pastures, with high sandstone hills providing a tranquil backdrop. Guests can explore award-winning bluebell woodlands, enjoy scenic farm walks up Mynydd Marchywel, and take in panoramic views of the Swansea Valley, Swansea Bay, and beyond.

The Gower Peninsula, with its stunning beaches like Rhossili Bay, is a 20-minute drive, offering hiking paths and dramatic views. The Times listed the beach as ‘The UK’s No.1 dog friendly beach’ so if you do have your furry friend with you, you should definitely go.

Nearby attractions include the Victorian village of Mumbles with its promenade, shops, and historic sites, as well as the National Showcaves of Wales and the Vale of Neath’s waterfalls. No visit to Mumbles would be complete without sampling some ‘fresh off the boat’ seafood, its handmade chocolates and its fantastic ice creams.
