Enjoyable week in a comfortable, well equipped cottage. Very relaxing setting, away from an A road and the hustle & bustle of Neath aIdeal as in between and only an hours journey from St Fagin's Museum, Dyffryn Garden to the east and the National Botanic Garden, Aberglasny Garden and the Gower to the west. Recommend it.
