  • "We had an absolutely wonderful week at Daffodil Cottage."

    The cottage was well equipped and comfortably furnished. The bed and pillows were excellent and we enjoyed good night’s sleep. The weather was very hot and so we were delighted to have the stream at the side of the house and Dingley Dell, a pond our puppy learned to swim in and we enjoyed cooling off with a paddle. We loved the local area. It was our first visit to the south of Wales. I feel sure it won’t be our last. The owners were extremely friendly, offering suggestions of places to visit. We will definitely be back

  • "Daffodil Cottage is is a cosy and comfortable cottage owned and run by Rosie and Adam both of which could not have been more helpful."

    The cottage is ideally situated for a quiet break, but also a great place to stay if you want to go hiking or touring the area.

    Thankyou for the great review! It was lovely to meet you both and get some good info on the local places (we will definitely visit that pub you mentioned!). Thankyou for taking such great care of the cottage and hope to see you again soon! Property Owner

  • "If you’re looking for holiday accommodation in a quiet, peaceful, beautiful location, surrounded by amazing countryside with lovely walks from the cottage, then this is the place for you."

    There’s woodland, mountains, meadows, rivers and waterfalls all on your doorstep which was great for our dog Charlie.The owners are friendly and helpful if you need them, they even brought us a large fan as we’d stayed during the recent hot spell. I would definitely recommend this place and I’m sure we’ll be back sometime in the future.

    Thankyou so much for the lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and the beautiful surroundings (and that Charlie enjoyed the walks!). Hope to see you back again soon, maybe in less extreme hot weather! thankyou also for leaving the cottage so clean and tidy we really appreciated it :) Property Owner

The property

Daffodil Cottage is a charming, well‑presented retreat set in 14 acres of private woodland and pasture near the village of Blaencwm, South Wales.

It offers a cosy, characterful base for couples seeking a relaxing rural escape surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Compact yet cleverly arranged, the cottage is ideal for couples wanting to unwind together while exploring this scenic part of the Valleys.

Step inside to an inviting open‑plan living space where the kitchen, dining and sitting areas come together to create a sociable, comfortable hub.

The kitchen is equipped for easy self‑catering, and the sitting area provides a welcoming spot to relax in front of the Smart TV after a day outdoors.

A separate utility and bike storage room keeps the main space clutter‑free, while the double bedroom and modern shower room with walk‑in shower offer a restful end to each day.

The simple layout makes the cottage especially well-suited to couples travelling together.

Outside, a front patio with outdoor furniture invites you to enjoy fresh air from morning to evening.

Off‑road parking for two cars is provided, and families with young children can make use of the highchair and travel cot.

A track from the farm leads directly to the stunning Pen Pych Waterfall walk — beautiful in all seasons.

Wild swimmers will love the nearby waterfall pool, just minutes from the cottage and perfect for a refreshing dip, whilst those seeking calm can simply relax beside the mountain stream that runs through the farm, and discover its own tranquil, private waterfall.

The award‑winning town of Treorchy, crowned the UK’s High Street of the Year in 2019, offers shops and pubs close by, while the wider valleys provide endless walking, mountain biking and exploring.

Further afield, Merthyr Tydfil, Neath and Swansea offer shopping, heritage attractions and coastal scenery.

With its peaceful setting and welcoming atmosphere, Daffodil Cottage is a delightful base for discovering South Wales.
