Directions
From our Cowbridge offices travel in an easterly direction to the traffic lights, and straight on up the hill filtering onto the A48 heading towards Cardiff. On approaching Bonvilston drive past The Aubrey Arms and 'Baffle Haus', taking the next turning right just before the village shop on your left hand side. Follow this road for a little over a mile until reaching a sharp 90 degree left
hand bend. As you go down the hill turn left onto a private driveway which is signed for Garnllwyd.
