Sitting pretty on the banks of Croesheolydd Farm's picturesque reservoir, this modern lodge is a cosy hub with everything you could ever need to enjoy an endlessly relaxing stay with friends and family. Located just outside the quaint village of Bassaleg in Gwent, you're just a twenty-one-minute drive from Caerphilly Castle and thirteen minutes by car from Newport. Surrounded by the peaceful countryside, you'll feel your stresses melt away from the moment you arrive. Make yourself at home in the contemporary living area, fling open the sleek bi-folding doors, instantly expanding your communal space and presenting a charming spot to unwind with a good book as you look out across the water. It's an idyllic setting inside and out, whether you're curled up in the warmth of the rustic wood-burning fire with a hot cup of cocoa, enjoying a group meal in the bright kitchen and dining area, or tucking into an alfresco supper beside the lake out on your private patio. Complete with comfortable garden furniture, a barbecue and a chiminea, we can think of nothing better than balmy summer evenings spent out here with your loved ones.

Local guide


About South Glamorgan

Cardiff is the big player here – the epicentre of Welsh rugby and cradle of ‘Cŵl Cymru’ culture. But outside the capital, you’ll find the genteel town of Cowbridge, sleepy Llantwit Major, the elegant seaside resort of Penarth and the bright lights of Gavin and Stacey’s Barry. For independent boutiques and eateries, make a beeline for the medieval walled town of Cowbridge. You could even pick up a nice vintage...
