The Cynon Valley Cottage and Bunkhouse is situated in the Cynon valley on the southern edge of the Brecon Beacons, about two miles to the north west of the village of Hirwaun. (Landranger Map 160, Explorer Map OL12, GR SN925075). It is a typical Welsh cottage and barn which has been converted into hostel type accommodation for up to 29 people.

The Centre is suitable for all types of groups such as the structured school party busy with field studies, the 'action-packed' activity group keen to develop their interests in outdoor pursuits and the more leisurely holiday party who wish to relax and enjoy the local amenities.

Bookings are available throughout the year to youth groups and schools in the Cynon valley area and the Chichester and Arun areas of West Sussex. Other non profit-making youth and adult groups are welcome when bookings permit.

The Centre has recently been awarded a Three Star rating by VisitWales, "Good level of quality and comfort".
