Cwmcarn Forest offers something for all the family\. The visitor centre provides a place to stock up on refreshments and gifts as well as finding out about what you can do in the area\. Why not get behind the wheel and treat the family to a unique fun day out along the stunning seven miles of Cwmcarn Forest Drive\. Explore by car, bike and foot the delights of this hidden wooded valley that culminates in a stunning sequence of views\.The hills of this previously mined area have been transformed into peaceful forests with impressive views\. It is difficult to imagine that some of the surrounding hillsides were slag heaps with hardly a tree to be seen\. The Forestry Commission started to plant trees here in 1922\. Today Cwmcarn Forest in the Nantcarn valley has become a haven for people and wildlife\.For 2012 we have increased the number of camping ‘Pods’, which could be described as a "wooden tent", on site\. There are now three Standard pods \(sleeping 2 adults & 1 child\) and seven Family pods available which provide spacious accommodation for up to four people\. All have their own picnic table and BBQ facilities\.One family & one standard Pod are now pet friendly \(small additional charge £3 per night\)\.If you like the idea of camping, but not the bugs, then the timber framed Pod is your saviour\. Just bring along your camping gear but no need to pack the tent\. Our pods have a heater, a light and electric socket\. The veranda is partially covered, so perfect for enjoying a meal or relaxing with a glass of wine\. Ideal for a short break or over night stay without the hassle of packing away a wet tent\.DirectionsBy Road \- please refer to the map, select the marker, choose 'Get Directions: To here' and enter your starting location\.\(As you approach Cwmcarn Forest, please follow the signage for the site, as Satellite Navigation Systems will direct you to a local housing estate\.\)Public TransportPlease visit the Traveline website for a comprehensive journey planner offering all possible bus, coach and rail options to Cwmcarn Forest\.BusThe most convenient bus stops are "Silver Street" situated on Twyncarn Road in Pontywaun\.
