Explore South Wales from Birchgrove
Sightseeing and places to visit
The property is an excellent base to explore this part of Wales. South Wales valleys are just down the road. Gower, the Brecon Beacons, Carmarthen and the Vale of Neath with its beautiful waterfalls can all be reached within half an hour.
I hope that this guide will tell you a little bit more about the local area.
