Blaennantygroes Farm is fifteen acres of peaceful uplands which includes a four acres broadlleaf wood and a field which is part of a large Site of Special Scientific Interest. Our elevated position gives a spectacular view across the valley, and behind is forestry and open countryside leading to the top station of Bike Park Wales. We are 100 metres from the mouth of the closed Merthyr Tunnel, hence we are known locally as 'Tunnel Farm'. The line of the disused track now proves a level walk through woodland which starts at the bottom of our drive and continues past the Rhoswenallt Inn, 1 mile, and on to Llwydcoed, a further 2 miles.Blaennantygroes is a former hill farm with a spectacular view across the Cynon Valley. We provide self catering accommodation in the four 250 year old stone cottages. The barn provides undercover barbecue, lounge and dining areas and has a woodburning stove, as do the cottages and Shepherd's Hut. We are on the edge of the Brecon Beacons and waterfall country, an area reknowned for hill walking, mountain biking and other outdoor activities. Bike Park Wales is on the hill behind us and Zip World Tower is fifteen minutes drive, on the other side of the valley. There is a pleasant flat walk from the bottom of our drive along a former railway line.
