The Roost has been created to provide an eco-friendly base for lovers of the great outdoors. We’re in the heart of the Welsh Valleys, minutes from BikePark Wales (by bike or car), on the Taff Trail (cycle route 8) and on the edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park (Pen y Fan is a 20 minute drive away) plus Cardiff is just 45 minutes away.
The village, Troedyrhiw, has a train station (a 5 minute walk away; connects to Merthyr Tydfil, Barry Island, Bridgend and Cardiff), shops and takeaways.
Our warm, cosy cabins sleep two adults and two children. They have comfy, big (4ft wide) bunk beds (beds are spacious for 1, cosy for 2). Our original cabins have in-cabin storage porches where you can hang up bikes and stash your gear. They all have separate, allocated shower rooms and kitchens (except Bodlawen). Our ensuite cabin has a kitchenette and separate lockable bike store.
