Site Tour

Llantwit Major hosts something for everyone; from ancient buildings, scenic walks along the Heritage Coast & countryside, quaint cottages and public houses to modern schools, leisure facilities and shops.

This site exists to inform locals and visitors of the hidden and visible features that make the area so special and interesting. Why not start by taking a look at the scenery? Our beach is very popular with people from all walks of life, with thrill-seeking surfers, dog walkers, ramblers and good old fashioned romantics in regular visitation.

Next, why not read up on the history of the area? So many people walk past ancient buildings and features every day of their lives without knowledge or appreciation of what once was.

Going hand-in-hand with the history of the area are the ghost stories. Turn the lights down low and read up on some of the residents that refuse to leave!

If you like what you see and think that a short stay would be nice, why not book yourself into one of the local accommodation venues on-line?

If you are planning a break in the area why not look at other local attractions that you can see during your stay? We are situated just a few miles from the world famous Millenium Stadium.

We also provide important and useful information about local transport, including our brand new train station, busses, taxi's and nearby Cardiff Airport.

Our searchable business directory provides a quick and easy means of finding a local business by searching by type of business, business name or simply by browsing a full list.

For those people that are visiting this site purely for family research we provide a free service called TraceUs, a very popular and successful method of reuniting long lost friends & family from all over the world.

Our Guestbook allows people to post their thoughts about the area, as well as compliments on this site!

We have a very popular on-line shopping section, offering many brand name products as well as a section devoted to local traders.

For locals there is a list of useful contacts available. This list includes emergency telephone numbers such as local police, coastguard, floodline as well as useful details for local schools, doctors and groups.

Finally, if we have missed any details, or if there is anything you would like to see, you are invited to contact us and let us know!
