The Island is an amazing place for a day out whilst on a luxury cottage break with brilliant family fun to be had and a stunning beach.
The Vale of Glamorgan is home to four main towns, Barry, Cowbridge, Llantwit Major and Bridgend. There is also a spectacular heritage coast and some beautiful countryside. When it comes to interesting things to do and see, Glamorgan is brimming with fantastic attractions as well as activities. For nature lovers there is Cowbridge Physic Garden, Cosmeston Lakes Country Park or Dyffryn Gardens.

Family fun on a luxury self-catering holiday can also be had at Barry Island Pleasure Park, Warren Mill Farm or The RNLI Lifeboat Station.

There are also opportunities for water sports, paintballing or karting.
