Arriving by road From the North or Midlands
If you are traveling by road from the north and midlands of England or from Scotland: take the M5 south and then take the M50 signed for South Wales. At Ross on Wye the M 50 ends, join the A 40 and then near Raglan continue on the A 449 towards Cardiff.
Continue on the A 449 to the M4 near Newport. Join the M4 westbound and continue as far as junction 36 Bridgend or continue to junction 40 (Port Talbot).
Taking J36 off the M 4 will save about 10 miles (reducing your carbon footprint) Leave the M4 at J36 and use your GPS, it will take you on a route through Maesteg and drop you over the mountain into the village of Cymmer continue straight across the cross road for Glyncorrwg following the brown tourism signs.
Alternatively leave the M4 at J40 and follow the A 4107 north for about 4 miles and you are in the Afan Forest Park. Continue further up the valley past the South Wales Miners Museum and into the village of Cymmer. Here follow the signs for Glyncorrwg turning left just before a Petrol Station, you will find Glyncorrwg Ponds visitor centre “which has camping” about one and a half miles along this road. Our Hire shop is 50 yards further along next door to the Centre.

To find Bryn Bettws leave the M 4 at J 40 and follow the A 4107 towards the Afan Forest Park. After 5 miles turn left and travel through the village of Pontrhydyfen (birthplace of Richard Burton) almost opposite the Colliers pub before leaving the village turn right towards Tonmawr, after about 200 yards a minor surfaced road turns to the right up a steep hill with a sign for Bryn Bettws. Follow this road for about one mile as it climbs the mountain. You will enter the forestry over a cattle grid and now you are 500 yards from Bryn Bettws. Continue straight on until you see some Log Cabins.
If you miss the surfaced road you may continue along towards Tonmawr for 300 yards and turn right through the forestry commission entrance and follow the un-surfaced track up to the top of the hill (again signs for Bryn Bettws) where you turn left into Bryn Bettws in front of the forest park information board.
