Coity
The ancient village is famous for Coity Castle, one of the most impressive ruins of a medieval fortress in Wales. Aside from its 12th-century heritage, the village has bags of kerb appeal with a cosy, intimate character and a pretty Norman church, surrounded by green fields. While Bridgend is merely a stone's throw away, keeps its independence of spirit, but enjoys all the facilities its larger neighbour brings, including good employment opportunities, shopping, schools, GPs and a hospital.
