The floor is wood block so perfect for my dog to learn how to skate,but so easy to clean. Half an hours walk to the beach through open fields, terrific,ten minutes walk to the town,one minutes walk to the square where you have the choice of three public houses, all serving great ale and food. Fabulous food from the takeaways,pizzas have to be the best in the vale from the pizza/ kebab house,in fact I’ve never had a better one, the Indian takeaway/ restaurant juboraj amazing, and the Chinese food is amazing, a little morel pricey than home but no complaints.I cook for a living and to have this quality within ten minutes walk is amazing, I kid you not. Local ale houses serving real ale, heaven. To return home to the old bakery in this beautiful old part of llantwit major capped it. Walking through the door to the warm glow of the fire ,nice large rustic dining tables and chairs, plenty of, to sit on, and to howler and relax to a nice comfortable warm bed, no, this isn’t my home, this is really how we all felt at the old bake house.
