There are some wonderful wheelchair friendly attractions within easy access of the cottages.
- The National Trust’s Aberdulais Falls is ten minutes from the cottages and is accessible to disabled visitors.

- The National Botanic Gardens of Wales, some 20 minutes along the M4 from the Swansea Valley, were commended in Which magazine for their value for money and disabled access.
