About the location

LLANTWIT MAJOR

Cowbridge 5 miles; Bridgend 9 miles; Cardiff 18 miles.

Located within a seven-and-a-half-acre arboretum, Tresilian Wood is a haven for nature lovers. Just across the road a kissing gate is the entrance to the Heritage Coastline part of the Welsh Path. Stroll along the shoreline and hunt for ancient fossils, or take in the dramatic cliff-top views stretching across to Devon on clear days.

To one side, just 1.2 miles away, lies Llantwit Major beach and village, where ancient history meets modern convivence. Explore St Illtud’s Church, dating back to 500 AD, and uncover its deep-rooted significance as a center of Celtic Christian culture. The village also offers quaint 14th-century pubs, a traditional butcher, and a local deli. Venture in the other direction to Nash Point Lighthouse, a guiding light for sailors since 1832. Continue onward to Monknash, where you'll find The Plough and Harrow, a charming pub set among the ruins of a medieval monastic grange. With beamed ceilings, Tudor doors, and open fires, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a drink locally crafted Welsh beers and ciders. If you enjoy a long walk you can continue to the spectacular Dunraven Bay, a favourite for bathing with its extensive sandy beach. If your legs are tired you can catch the local bus which stops along the coastline and returns to Tresilian Wood.

A short drive brings you to Cowbridge, a vibrant market town filled with boutiques, cafés, and fine dining options. If you're staying longer, Tresilian Wood serves as an ideal base for exploring South Wales’ most iconic landmarks: Cardiff – The lively capital, just a drive away, and slightly further out Brecon Beacons National Park – Stunning mountains and outdoor adventures. Within an hour you can see Wales’ Famous Castles – Discover Cardiff Castle, Castell Coch, Caerphilly Castle, and many more. Whether you're seeking coastal adventures, historical discoveries, or peaceful countryside and coastal escapes, Tresilian Wood is the perfect place to unwind and explore.
