Description

A 16th Century farmhouse, Ty Ffarm at Gellilwch has been lovingly converted into a spacious and luxurious holiday home, offering the ultimate ‘croeso’ to Wales. With breathtaking views across the South Wales valleys, Ty Ffarm sits peacefully in the countryside above the market town of Pontypridd and just a 20 minute drive from the capital city, Cardiff. It is ideally located for exploring everything South Wales has to offer with excellent restaurants, pubs, shops and attractions just a short drive away. The stunning property maintains many of its original features, including a large ‘inglenook’ and fireplaces, combining modern designs and amenities with all the charm of a traditional Welsh farmhouse. The beautifully designed kitchen/diner is the heart of the farmhouse, centred by a large handmade timber dining table, fireplace with wood-burning stove and contemporary lighting. The kitchen area is ideal for hosting parties or dinners with family and friends and the farmhouse’s original walk-in cold room, perfect for chilling drinks and food also has an additional fridge/freezer. It comes equipped with everything you need for a party of 10-12 people. Also downstairs are two large sitting rooms to relax and unwind in - one is a charming traditional Welsh farmhouse inglenook room with a magnificent woodburner and the other a modern stylish lounge . Both have ample comfortable seating with TVs and DVD players, as well as a selection of books and games, which can be tailored to suit any age. Ty Ffarm is ideal for those with a love of the great outdoors and features a ground floor ‘boot room’ with sink, perfect for storing coats and wellies or cleaning up after long walks in the countryside. It also provides secure indoor storage for mountain bikes and cycles. There is also a stylish ground floor family shower room and toilet. Upstairs, this impressive property boasts five individually- decorated luxury bedrooms including a twin room, two double bedrooms, a bunk-bed room (with an adult-size bunk bed) and a gorgeous master double bedroom with en-suite shower room and unrivalled views across the countryside. The centrepiece of the stunning family bathroom, found on the first floor, is its luxurious free-standing roll-top bath and spacious separate walk-in shower. With exposed stonework together with its crystal chandelier and stylish tiling, the spacious bathroom is a wonderful mix of traditional and modern design.

Ty Ffarm is just as impressive on the outside too. Not only does it offer a pretty front garden and lawn area, it boasts a huge patio with a high quality 100 square metre artificial lawn to the back of the property with spectacular views across the stunning Welsh hills. Here you will find a six-person hot tub, an outside WC, a family BBQ, a large wooden dining table, seating and parasol, a ten-foot trampoline for children and outdoor games to entertain all ages. Ty Ffarm is located right in the heart of the Welsh countryside making it ideal for walking, cycling or bird-watching. The farmhouse is just 12 miles from BikePark Wales, the UK's premier mountain bike park The Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons) is easily accessible for further outdoor adventures. The centre of Pontypridd, famous as the hometown of Sir Tom Jones, is less than two miles away, offering award-winning pubs and restaurants, shops, a museum, parks and Ynysangharad Park, which is home to the historic National Lido of Wales ‘Lido Ponty’, offering three heated outdoor swimming pools and an adventure play area. The famous Rhondda Heritage Park is also nearby. A must-visit is Wales’ thriving capital city Cardiff - just a short drive or train journey away. With some of Europe’s best shopping, including its famous independent arcades, traditional pubs and cocktail bars, theatres, international restaurants and top attractions, including The Principality Stadium and the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff Bay, there is something for everyone. Ty Ffarm is the perfect base whether you want a quiet and scenic break in the countryside with friends and family, or a busy action-packed holiday exploring the very best South Wales has to offer.

A beautifully presented property in a peaceful location, with great facilities and amenities.

Great for families or adults only. Babs was very accomodating and nothing seemed to be to much trouble. A small issue during our stay was rectified as quickly as possible with minimal disturbance. Would reccomend this property and would most definitely stay again in future.

We had a brilliant stay.

The house is incredibly well appointed and sits in an idyllic location. We only stayed a very short time as we were visiting friends in Pontypridd but the house, with five bedrooms, three bathrooms and two living rooms, was everything we needed. Absolutely brilliant!

A farmhouse that thinks of everything We booked this farmhouse for my 50th birthday celebration and couldn't have chosen better.

It's clear the hosts have anticipated every need, so you needn't worry if you forget something. Families are especially well looked after. Inside there's a good selection of games, a doll's house for little ones and a shelf of holiday reads (we brought our own games and never opened them). Outside, the children enjoyed the trampoline, play house, play kitchen, toy cars and balls, and there's a handy outdoor toilet so nobody has to traipse back indoors. Small touches make a big difference: blankets for chilly evenings outside, hot tub towels stacked in the nearby boot room, and clearly labelled switches for the outdoor lights. The kitchen is fully equipped for entertaining a crowd, with plenty of crockery, bakeware (including pizza trays), serving dishes for party food and a large dishwasher for the aftermath. Beds are comfortable, the bedding is lovely and cosy, and each bed comes with its own set of towels. The setting is spectacular: high in the Welsh hills with sweeping views across open farmland. It feels wonderfully remote and peaceful, while a supermarket is under ten minutes away. Without doubt the best holiday rental I've stayed in. Generous, thoughtful hosts, a superb location and a truly lovely farmhouse. 10/10, and highly recommended.
