A charming village and community resting within the County Borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Pontyclun is the perfect choice for an escape to Wales. The iron ore and coal mining industries alongside the introduction of the South Wales Railway changed this quaint village from a 20 acre farm to a bustling Victorian industrial town, which now attracts visitors from all over the world. Alongside its great railway connections, the village also benefits from a good range of shops, perfect for picking up any essentials on a self-catered stay, as well as wide selection of eateries varying from traditional pubs to Indian takeaways, offering something for every taste. Explore the independent shops scattered around before taking a stroll through the picturesque Ivor Woods and along the River Ely. A scenic car journey from Pontyclun will bring you to Wales' capital; Cardiff. Here you can find a wide range of attractions, with the most popular including a trip to its imposing Gothic castle, exploring its beautiful bay and the Cardiff Central Market where you can roam the dual-level Victorian structure houses showcasing a variety of traders, from fresh produce to homeware, tools and even records. For a day out with a difference visit the Cardiff International White Water Centre, offering the only white water rafting course in South Wales, or explore Bridgend, Barry, Port Talbot and beyond, making Pontyclun the ultimate base for exploring the coast of Wales.
