This stunning property, situated just 4.5 miles from Llantwit Major Beach, is the ultimate South Wales retreat for families or couples seeking space. Sleeping four across two peaceful bedrooms, you won’t be able to tear yourself away from this historic holiday home. Go for walks up the original pathway from the miller’s cottage to discover wonderful woodland or venture out further and spend the day at Porthkerry Country Park (12 miles).

This converted corn mill has been restored with great care to retain its rich history and is set across multiple levels. A bright and airy, open-plan living area with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and exposed stone walls offers the ideal place to unwind; sink into the sumptuous sofas or cook up a storm in the contemporary kitchen and eat at the large farmhouse-style table. Steal a moment away from it all in the TV room on a mezzanine level above the kitchen, or light the wood burner and listen to the crackles. When day turns to night, find a cosy twin bedroom on the property’s lower level, or head upstairs to the sumptuous king-size bedroom that sits beneath rustic, exposed beams and has use of a spa-like en-suite wet room. Completing the interior is a well-appointed family bathroom. Outside, unwind with an evening tipple on the sun terrace overlooking the woodland, or head out to the rear patio for an al fresco breakfast to the sound of birds and the passing stream.

Head into Cowbridge (3.5 miles) for a day of boutique shopping and a delicious lunch. Llantwit Major (3 miles) is the gateway to 14 miles of dynamic coastline – kids will love searching for fossils on the beach. If you’re looking for traditional family fun, head to Barry Island (12 miles) where the pleasure park, adventure golf, and quasar will keep you all busy.
