Llanhilleth Miners Cottage, great for touring South Wales and Dog Friendly

A wonderful little miner’s cottage located in the village of Llanhilleth in Blaenau Gwent. It's just a couple of minutes off the A467 bypass, with an excellent fast road system for touring. Great local tourists attractions, such as the UNESCO Blaenavon World Heritage center, the Brecon Beacons, numerous castles, roman ruins and St. Fagans national museum of history. Fast road system to the M4 if visiting the coast. Dogs are welcome downstairs. Free on street parking and the local valley train to Cardiff Central Station just 6 mins walk away.

What a fantastic discovery! The cottage was impeccably clean, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The lovely front patio provided a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the views while watching the sunset. We had no issues parking the car outside the property, and the communication with the owner, Meryl, was excellent. We would definitely love to return!
