SITUATION The quiet hamlet of Castle upon Alun is a community of individual homes amidst rural surroundings to the west of the Vale of Glamorgan. Local shops are available in St Brides Major and include a Post Office and general store, a popular primary school and pub; the renowned market town of Cowbridge is 8 miles away and offers a much more comprehensive range of boutique shops and restaurants, a Waitrose store and the highly regarded Cowbridge Comprehensive School – the Sunday Times Welsh State School of The Year.
Within a rural location, it is still convenient commuting, via the A48 and M4 bringing Cardiff, Swansea and Bristol in easy reach; trains to London Paddington depart every 30 minutes from Bridged Station; Cardiff Airport under 15 miles away.
The thriving Capital City of Cardiff, 20 miles away, has outstanding shopping facilities and is a destination in its own right, with internationally important Museum collections, in hosting world class theatre and Opera shows and Sporting events. For the more energetic, it is a short distance from the Glamorgan Heritage Coast line, with its good surfing beaches and has riding over common land as far as Merthyr Mawr.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
