Lodge retreat in Afan Forest Park, Port Talbot

Accommodation in Log Cabins

Lodge 4 includes a generous hot tub on a private deck, while all cabins now have air conditioning units in the living room and bedroom.

Amenities

Directly outside the cabins, the Afan Valley mountain bike trails cater to riders of all abilities, with 5 trails from easy loops to challenging jumps in the bike park.
