The Brynffynon

Family-run pub and restaurant on the edge of the stunning Llanwonno Forestry.

Home-cooked meals, great range of drinks and a cosy log fire.

It’s the perfect place to relax and refuel after exploring Llanwonno Foresty, which has a hidden waterfall and reservoir and miles of forest walks.

Make sure you stop at St Gwynno’s Church, opposite the pub, to see the grave of Guto Nyth Bran, once the fastest man in the world. The Nos Galan Road Races are held in nearby Mountain Ash every year to celebrate him and “Keep the Legend Alive”. Sporting stars such as Leigh Halfpenny and Linford Christie have laid flowers at the grave to mark the start of the event.
