Family-friendly vacation rentals in Aberdare

Relaxing, peaceful and private. Like to go off grid and certainly ticked the boxes. Great space for our dog and it was nice to be left alone. Everything you need not to have to keep going to the shops etc.

So peaceful and cosy. Directions were very easy to follow and the views all around are absolutely stunning. The outdoor space has been well thought out, with a table to eat in the sun, as well as a fire pit and bbq which we made good use of. The hot tub is immaculate and very private. Inside space has been really well mapped out with so much usable space and handy features, hooks everywhere. Kitchen had everything you could need. Thank you for the little touches like Welsh cakes, eggs, milk and bread. List of walks was very helpful too. We loved our stay, thank you!

Our stay was lovely, the house was beautifully renovated and honestly couldn't fault it! The hot tub was a highlight in the evenings after a long few days exploring and really helped us to relax! Comfy beds, and lots of storage space with big wardrobes..only thing I would say is the sun does stream through the windows (which is lovely, just means early starts) as soon as it gets light out, blackout blinds or curtains in the bedrooms would maybe be useful in the summer months if you aren't looking to be up so early but that was the only thing I could add!

We had a lovely long weekend in Catherine and Hugh’s place. It’s a beautiful and peaceful location, well situated within driving distance to many places on the England/Wales border. It was a real luxury to be able to use the hot tub, too.

We were welcomed by Mez and from minute one nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic host and brilliant stay. So good we are already looking at available dates for summer.

We had a beautiful weekend at the coach house celebrating my husband’s birthday. Joy was a great host, the air BnB is beautiful and we enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. There are small touches such as food and drink items which Joy had provided, this was very kind of her and it made our stay very comfortable as essentials were already provided. There is plenty to do around the area and lots of places to eat. We will definitely be returning. Thank you!

Had an amazing time! Hosts were fantastic, gave great instructions for the fire, kitchen appliances and hot tub. Our dog absolutely loved the private field and we got to see the amazing sunset and stars from the top of the hill - Thank you! We loved our stay and the gifts were a lovely suprise 10/10

We had a wonderful stay at Ian and Christine’s self contained outhouse. The place was very easy to find and we were met upon arrival by both of them. They were warm and friendly from the get go. Their dog Danny was playful and adorable. The place had everything we needed and everything was spotlessly clean. It was incredibly quiet there, so we didn’t hear a peep. We went to Hay on Wye for the festivals which was only a 20mins drive and the Oxford street car park only cost £4 for the entire day. I’d highly recommend this place, especially if you’re visiting Hay or any of the surrounding areas.

This bungalow was perfect for us. Attending a wedding the next day the bungalow was a place where we could be right at home. The place was spotlessly clean and allowed plenty of space for us all to get wedding ready. Angela was so helpful throughout, rescuing a late Amazon delivery for us and messaging us to let us know where it was. I’ve never known an Airbnb host to respond to messages so quickly. I really appreciated the bungalow but mainly the host for being so lovely and so accommodating.

2nd time staying at Richard and Di's and it was absolutely perfect. Di is so welcoming, the house is just perfect and has everything you would ever need and more...some really lovely little touches which you wouldn't usually expect. The house is in a great location and so close to so many fantastic places to visit and beautiful beaches. We have loved every minute of our stay and my boys love the upstairs living room as a special room for them. Thanks again to Di for making it a really special week and Birthday for our eldest.

Lovely relaxing place . Great to have no WiFi. Ideal for all the family we played lots of the provided games. Easy access to local places.

We had a lovely stay as a group of friends. Close to the beach, lovely host, beautiful views and very spacious. Highly recommend would love to stay there again.

Really enjoyed our week's stay at the cottage, particularly as we had a week of sunshine. the cottage is recently modified, very well thought out and fitted out, clean and well located. We were staying with our 2 small dogs and enjoyed some amazing beach and coastal walks. Carol is an excellent caring host. If that's what you're looking for in a break I would thoroughly recommend a stay at the cottage.

A wonderful family home containing everything you need. It is comfortably and well furnished. The children's room was very welcome and well used by our children. The house is very well placed and the parking area was extremely useful. It is a great base for exploring Swansea and the surrounding area with pretty beaches very close by. The Mumbles is well served with shops and restaurants and only a few minutes walk from the house. We had 6 fabulous nights and would definitely return again. Kathryn is a very responsive and welcoming host. Thank you for having us.

We had a lovely stay at Cheryl’s! There was plenty of room for three adults, two kids, and a big dog. The kitchen is well-equipped and has a big table, which made for lovely family meals. Enjoyed roasting sausages over the fire outside one night and kids loved mucking around in the creek. Good hot showers, plenty of games and DVDs, cosy fire in the evenings. Hosts were very responsive when we needed to contact them.

We had a fantastic week here, the views and setting were just amazing. The accommodation was clean and cosy, Danielle and Tom were great hosts- so friendly and very very responsive and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble! The kids loved the swimming pool and its long opening hours. Although there were other families staying in the other cottages it always felt very tranquil and peaceful with us often having exclusive use of the pool. It was great having a washing machine to use daily, as well as lots of other bonuses. We will definitely be back!

A place with the WOW factor. Scenery is just amazing. Beautiful little spot with the added bonus of a pool and our own private hot tub. Relaxing environment and spacious surroundings. Totally recommend.

My family and I have just returned from a 5 night stay at David's lovely home and we can't wait to hopefully return one day. Our children were in tears when we arrived home because they missed the holiday home and the swimming pool and club house so much! The scenery was picturesque and it was glorious how peaceful it was. Thank you again, David.

Had the most amazing stay. Felt very welcome emma was lovely. Stunning place as described. Really just felt like a home to home. Kids enjoyed swimming pool, had amazing views while sitting in hot tub. Will defo book again. Really is a hidden gem. Great places nearby.

Woodpecker Cottage is a wonderful place to stay, comfortable, well-equipped, and full of charm. Gyles is a fantastic host; welcoming, thoughtful, and always happy to go the extra mile to ensure you feel at home. The log burner was a real treat and made our stay even more special. Thank you, Gyles!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the house was very clean and tidy and Clare went above and beyond with complimentary cake and fizz on arrival. Clare was very responsive when we had questions about the area. The house felt like a home, and it was great to be able to make the most of the spa pool after a day out. We would definitely book again.

The cottage is well looked after and as described in AirBnB. All basic necessary items were provided including silverware, cutlery, fridge, microwave/grill combo and oven/hob. The holiday village is serene, lending itself nicely for a nice rest after long days of exploring the area. The swimming pool is a very welcome plus for families with children, although the pool has no shallow area for kids younger than 7 or 8 years old. Overall highly recommended. We'll definitely consider coming back.

Massive thankyou to Sophie and all the team Kind regards Joshua Healey
