About The Area:
Ystalyfera is located on the banks of the River Tawe some 13 miles north of Swansea - just off the main A4067. Nestled between Varteg Hill and Alltygrug Hill it provides impressive views to its residents. Education is provided by a local Welsh primary school as well as both English and Welsh primaries, with secondaries in neighbouring Ystradgynlais. A small selection of shops, cafés and takeaways are complimented by additional establishments in Ystradgynlais as well as larger chain stores and supermarkets located on the outskirts. Just up the road is The National Showcaves Centre for Wales, Craig y Nos Castle & Country Park, The Wales Ape and Monkey sanctuary, and Henrhyd Waterfalls. In less than 30 minutes' drive you can be deep in Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons National Park) itself or on the shores of Swansea Bay.
