Amazing place to spend a relaxing week. Excellent accommodation, a home not a holiday let, one of the best you will ever find. Loads of facilities nearby, shops, tourist places, walks a great pub, short trip to Cardiff. Central for The Gower, Brecon etc. Superb location.
The hosts could not be more welcoming or friendly. Wendy and Ian were absolutely delightful.

We had a delightful week at this beautiful property, It was comfortable and fully equipped. On arrival we were met by Wendy who was very welcoming and she allowed us early entry to the property which we much appreciated. The countryside around St Lythan's is very beautiful and convenient for all main tourist attractions in South Wales.

Fabulous property which was suitable for mom who is in a wheelchair. Kitchen fully equipped with excellent quality cookware. Great location as it is in the countryside but close to Cardiff centre and lots of other attractions.

A wonderful cottage, great place to unwind in peace and quiet, where visitors are perfectly looked after by their hosts Wendy and Ian. This is by far the best cottage we have stayed in, across the UK, well appointed, where nothing is any trouble. Thanks guys, we'll be back soon !

We had a magnificent time in these lovely guest quarters: spacious, comfortable, immaculate, fully equipped – and with stunning views across the countryside. Our delightful hosts, Wendy and Ian, were always available to answer questions or provide information. The property is close to Cardiff and other areas of interest such as St. Fagan's National Museum of History. We have stayed in many VRBO rentals, but this one was among the very best!

Wendy and Ian were fantastic to deal with. The place is absolutely stunning, set in a beautiful location… even in winter! The house has everything you need and more. They are very accommodating with our change of dates, and really couldn’t ask any more. I have already recommended this accomodation to friends.

We felt right at home in this lovely rental property; everything was extremely comfortable, clean and stylish. Plus the location in the countryside with the peace and quiet, with rural views, was exactly our speed. We hope to make this our 'go to' rental from now on for our regular visits to the area.

Absolutely one of the very best
We had a great stay. For us, this bungalow is perfect. Everything from the layout, decor, facilities, parking and location are spot on and its peaceful and quiet! We've stayed in well over 100 rental holiday homes over the years, and this has to be one of the very best.
Wendy and Ian are easily contactable and are incredibly helpful and thoughtful owners.
A very lovely place. We will definitely stay again!

Fantastic hosts, perfect location and spotless property
The location was perfect, the property was very clean/tidy/comfortable and had everything you needed - especially a fully equipped kitchen! Shops were 5 minutes away, Cardiff Bay about 20 minutes, and the Gower beaches an hour or so - excellent all round! We had a lovely relaxing time and was warmly welcomed upon our arrival. Wendy & Ian are perfect hosts and available to help with a wealth of information if needed. Highly recommend and will definitely visit again. Thank you!

Outstanding hosts with a spectacular property
The cottage feels in the middle of nowhere but is 10 minutes from everywhere! It has a real private feel to it and we were very comfortable. Wendy greeted us on our arrival and made us feel so very welcome. We visited to meet up with family and this was an ideal base for visiting them in both Cardiff and Penarth. The cottage was so clean and had everything you could ever need. I could not recommend both the cottage and Wendy and Ian highly enough. Thank you both.

Lovely accommodation
The accommodation at St Lythans is very spacious and equipped to a high quality. Although situated in a small linear village it was convenient for the M4 with Cardiff, Barry Island and many other places of interest less than 30 minutes drive away. There is a retail park about 10 mins away by car with Tesco and M&S as well as other stores.

Totally exceeded our expectations. Superb locaction, very well equiped, great welcome. Recommeneded.
This was home from home for us. Great welcome from Wendy, such a quiet location but only 5 mins drive from a supermarket. Loved the kitchen and fact we could easily host our family from Cardiff for an evening meal on the patio. Comfy beds, fab access to local walks and can't wait to visit again.

Perfect holiday Yun Wales
Immaculately clean house and beautiful grounds, very helpful welcoming owner, great location if you have a car - within easy and quick reach to hiking places, open air museums, National Trust places, beaches, supermarkets... Our family especially enjoyed the birds singing in the garden every morning, the relaxing bath in the evenings, the lovely beds. It’s a shame the holiday was so short!

South Wales Paradise
The property is a perfect place to stay to explore the Valleys, Brecon Beacons, the South Wales coast and the Gower Peninsula. Southwinds is a beautiful property with everything you could want for from a fabulous kitchen to a stunning shower room and bedroom downstairs and an upstairs bedroom and bathroom to delight. We would not hesitate to stay here again

Great property and location
Spent a week here visiting family in the area. Really close to Cardiff but in a very rural location. Everything we needed was in the property. Loads of room. Very clean and comfortable. Not sure we could find anywhere as good as this!
