There are ample recreational opportunities nearby with a host of country walks on the doorstep, golf courses, riding stables and leisure facilities.

Accommodation - Described by CADW as one of the most important Tudor mansions in Glamorgan, Van Mansion is a grade II listed building. Constructed of solid stone, white rendered walls, with pitched slate style roofs, the windows are mullioned and transomed incorporating leaded lights with stone sills and rain water pipes of cast iron. Van mansion dates from 1415, but the dressed stone quoins and faced stones are from the original Norman Castle. In 1529 Van Mansion became the home of Sir Edward Lewis, descended from the Welsh Prince of Gwaethfoed. The Lewis family controlled vast estates in Wales and England and during the 16th century the Van was described as one of the finest houses in the country. Van Mansion and the vast Lewis family estates passed with the marriage of 1730 of Elizabeth Lewis to the third Earl of Plymouth, and Van Mansion remained part of the Plymouth Estate until 1991.
