Excellent place to stay for the Brecon Beacons ⛰ The Gap Cycle 🚲 Route, Taff Trail and Bike Park Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 , the hosts Kris and Kath , keep... read more a wonderful natural peaceful setting. The cabins , kitchens and bathrooms 🚽 facilities are amazing. There’s plenty of info, Kath sent me info on the Gap ride( which we did - 46 miles in total by the time we got back to The Roost) A gem 💎 in the valleys.

Great place to stay. It has everything we needed and very little you don’t. Beds were very comfortable. Easy access for Bike Park Wales. Not many options for eating out nearby,... read more but we did find a decent curry.

We had the most amazing weekend. This is the perfect place to stay for mountain biking and hiking. The cabin was so clean and the attention to the finer details... read more like usb ports (coz we always forget the plug!), amongst other things, is such a great touch. I love the eco friendly approach too. After a day of riding at Bikepark Wales the hot shower and super comfy bed was just the thing we needed. The bike wash and repair area again is a huge bonus. Thank you for making the ideal place to stay for us mountain bikers! We couldn't have wanted/needed anything more. We can't wait to stay again soon, Donna and Ian

We ha an excellent stay at The Roost, using it as a base for mountain biking in the region, at Bike Park Wales, Afan Valley and Dirt Farm. It's... read more worth noting we were very lucky with the weather, which was hot and dry, so "glamping" was pretty ideal. The cabin we stayed in was very clean and comfortable, and had plenty of power sockets. The kitchen was well-equipped and we really liked eating on the decking outside. Although it's tucked away at one end of a residential area, The Roost feels pretty secluded, and the trees and landscaping are really pleasant. We appreciated the bike-washing facilities and workstand a great deal, and the owners were keen to make sure we had everything else we needed, including a fan to keep us comfortable in the hot weather. We definitely hope to stay at The Roost again!

The Roost is a lovely little oasis with easy access to Bike Park Wales. The cabins are cosy, well equipped and everything you need for a few days break. The... read more beds are super comfortable, with lots of hot water and all you need if you want to cook, make coffee etc. We'll definitely be coming back. Thank you Kath!

Amazing 3 night stay for me and my son for our trip to Bike Park Wales. Thank you to Kris and Kath who were always on hand to make our... read more stay perfect. The place is always immaculate. There is a bike store, Bike wash and drying room for those wet days on the trails. I would highly recommend The Roost to anyone. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My daughter and I come from Sweden (though she lives in Bristol) and we had a lovely stay at the Roost Medthyr Tydfil in the beginning of the summer. The... read more site is perfect as a base for exploring the stunning nature of Brecon Beacons. It is situated at the outskirts of a village, pretty close to the highway, so you can hear the traffic – but non the less it is so peaceful and calming. The cabin we had was absolutely wonderful! Everything was clean and dry and warm. And the architecture and planning was both beautiful and functional. This little surface had everything, including a perfect bathroom with a lovely hot shower. The beds were super comfy. I have never stayed in a cabin more well equipped. There was a little kitchenette and it had all utensils you could wish for, even a toaster. And yet nothing too much, all very minimalistic, clean and clutter free. And there was even a torch, stuck into the power outlet, in case there was a power cut. Talk about service! This must be the creation by somebody with lots of craftiness, experience, thoughtfulness, ingenuity – and love for out door life and out door people! Never felt more well taken care of by a little house 🙂 Recommending this wholeheartedly!

The Roost is an ideal glamping site. You're allocated a private showeroom and toilet and kitchen area for the duration of your stay...no sharing. The place is spotless. It's ideally... read more located. I went to Zip World, The Royal Mint and St. Fagans. All with loads of time to get there and back. I loved. Kath is lovely and ensures you're happy.

Fabulous little spot to stay in, 10 mins easy cycle from Bike Park Wales. Lovely comfortable cabins and amazing attention to detail on this eco-friendly little gem of a place.... read more Highly recommend and will definitely be back to sit by the fire and look at the mountains.

Really nice little place on the hill side, perfect for us who stayed just two nights, we were only down the road at bike park Wales. Brilliant little set up,... read more clean and tidy, very reasonable on pricing too. Will definitely be returning in the future when we visit bpw again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great stay at The Roost, despite staying during Storm Eunice. All the rooms, kitchen facilities and bathrooms were very clean. Host always very accommodating and communicated with us before, during... read more and after our stay. Good facilities for biking (bike storage in cabin that will take 2 adult bikes hanging up and two kids bikes in the vestibule), a decent bike wash station and proximity to Bike Park Wales is excellent (it is an easy ride for an adult). Am a repeat customer and will definitely stay again.

Stayed at the Roost for a long weekend with a friend as we were mountain biking at Bike Park Wales and Cwmcarn. The site is very secure and mountain bike... read more friendly. Bikes do have a secure lock up in the chalets and there is a bike wash point on site as well. The rooms are compact but they provide enough room for you and your kit. There is a separate drying room for drying out wet kit. The kitchen pods are great and well equipped, also the showers are clean and hot water is always in abundance. I would highly recommend the Roost to anyone and would definitely stay there again.

Second time staying at the roost whilst visiting bike park wales for the weekend. 10/10 again. Place is kept immaculate. Locals are friendly and just an all round great place... read more to be. Can cycle to BPW in around ten minutes from the roost. Highly recommend

I stayed in my campervan at the site, there was a good parking space providing on hard standing, with an electric hook up point. I was provided with a code... read more to the front gate to come and go as I pleased, and with a code to a single Shower/Toilet room. It was a great place from which to explore the Valley

A hidden gem of a glamping site, a warm welcoming log cabin feel which is tucked away behind locked gates. The cabin, kitchen and shower room are all well stocked... read more so you don’t have to take much with you and all very clean, we had a lovely stay and would higher recommend The Roost.
