walks from the door…
Sugar Loaf Mountain
JJust a five-minute walk from the barn, turn right out of the drive and take the next left to reach The Fro Car Park, the starting point for the popular Sugar Loaf Mountain walk. Expect stunning scenery, grazing sheep, wild horses, and an incredible 360-degree view from the summit.
Countryside route to The Crown Pub
From the Sugar Loaf Mountain ridge, continue along the path until it splits. Take the left fork, which will lead you down directly to The Crown Pub — a perfect spot for a well-earned rest!
Bryn Arw Mountain
For those up for more of a challenge, a public footpath from the paddock leads to Bryn Arw Mountain. It’s a steep and adventurous climb, but you can go at your own pace — walk as far as you like and head back the same way. Even a short stroll offers lovely views and a peaceful escape into nature.
We recommend using a footpath app to help with navigation — especially useful on your way back from the pub!
For more walks a short drive away, please see the Walks section on the Things to Do page.
Local Area Guide
We have put together a collection of our favourite walks, pubs, cafés, activities and a whole lot more, to help make your stay as enjoyable and as memorable as possible.
