Cowbridge
One of South Wales’ most fashionable places, rural Cowbridge is
full of sophisticated shops and plays host to a fantastic food
festival each autumn.
If you like
to shop in style then you’ll love Cowbridge High Street. The town
has numerous unique, family-owned shops selling up-market clothes
for men and women as well as jewellery, leather goods, shoes,
antiques and crafts. Eating out in Cowbridge is always a treat too,
whether you’re looking for a lunchtime bite or a three-course
meal.
The town has a wealth of history dating back to Roman times,
with a Roman Road going to the west right through the town.
Cowbridge’s historic past is reflected in its
present day buildings, which add to the interest and character of
the town. The area around High Street is a pleasure to explore
while the Cowbridge Physic Garden is a tranquil place to relax and
creates awareness of the curative properties of plants.
Close to Cowbridge are the Grade One listed gardens of Dyffryn
House which show off the best in Edwardian garden design. Also
nearby is Llanerch Vineyard, Wales’ oldest and largest commercial
vineyard. Request a copy of our Cowbridge mini
guide for a town map and further information.
