The cabin is located next to our lovely alpacas and their home, please ensure you do not feed or interact with them unless supervised by the hosts. This is to ensure your safety and theirs, they get enough food and love from us! :) Sit back and relax, watching them stroll through the day.

TWMBARLWM WALK
This 2 hour walk will take you up to the top of the Iron Age hillfort of Twmbarlwm. It was once a centre for the Silurian Celts who fought a 25-year war with Rome. The hill fort would have been well defended with ramparts, warriors on horseback and speedy chariots. From the top are stunning views, over Cardiff Bay to the south and towards the Brecon Beacons to the north.

TAITH GERDDED TWMBARLWM
Bydd y daith gerdded 2 awr hon yn eich tywys i gopa Bryngaer Oes Haearn Twmbarlwm. Ar un adreg, roedd yn ganolfan i'r Celtiaid Silwriaid a bu’n brwydro am 25 mlynedd yn erbyn Rhufain. Byddai'r bryngaer wedi'i hamddiffyn yn dda gan rhagfuriau, rhyfelwyr ar gefn ceffyl a cherbydau rhyfela cyflym. O'r copa mae golygfeydd godidog, dros Fae Caerdydd tua'r De a thuag at Fannau Brycheiniog tua'r Gogledd.
