Mountain Ash (in Welsh ‘Aberpennar') is a town and community in the Cynon Valley, which lies within the County Borough of Rhondda Cynon Taff as well as the historic county boundary of Glamorgan. The town lies about 5 miles south of Aberdare, a mile north of the village and community of Penrhiwceiber, and approximately 19 miles north-west of Cardiff.

Our new development Golwg y Mynydd is Welsh for ‘Mountain View' and it gives an indication of what a special location this is to live. Surrounded by dramatic mountains and rugged landscapes this valley town is perfect if you enjoy the great outdoors.

Originally a mining town – the search for ‘black gold' in the surrounding hillsides shaped the Valley towns we know today. Mountain Ash is a quaint little town which has its own high street and a small selection of shops such as Iceland, Howells Menswear and a local Post Office. For more choice, just 5 miles to the north is the market town of Aberdare, which has a much larger selection of high street shops and supermarkets such as Tesco and Asda.

If getting out and about in the mountains is your idea of fun then this is the place to be. The nearby Dare Valley Country Park has 500 acres of countryside, walks, trails and family fun, just waiting for you to explore. And BikePark Wales is also close-by; offering mountain bike trails from ‘extreme to serene' in the heart of the South Wales valleys.

Aberdare is home to the newly-renovated Sobell Leisure Centre which has an abundance of leisure facilities, including three pools, a gym and sports halls to cater for all ages. And children and adults alike will love Lido Ponty, a Grade II listed lido in Pontypridd. Its three heated swimming pools, adventure play park and state-of-the-art visitors' centre draw visitors from far and wide.

A great education for all...

Close to the development there's choice of local primary schools, including Mountain Ash Comprehensive School & Ysgol Ramadeg Aberpennar for students aged 11–18. Local primary schools include Our Lady's R.C Primary School, Caegarw Primary School, Glenboi Primary School and Darranlas Primary School.

Living at Golwg y Mynydd means you can enjoy a tranquil location, with the charm of village life, but have the benefit of everything on your doorstep and great transport links.
