Map of the UK

Llanmaes is a small, historic village in the rolling countryside of the Vale of Glamorgan in south Wales, lying just north of Llantwit Major and within easy reach of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast and the Bristol Channel. The village retains a compact core of traditional stone cottages, a village green and a parish church, giving it a quietly rural, conservation-minded character.

Historically agricultural, Llanmaes today combines farming roots with a commuter presence - many residents travel to Cardiff or Barry for work - and a small but active community life centred on local events and the village hall. Its proximity to the coast and nearby historic towns makes it popular with walkers and visitors seeking a peaceful base rather than a bustling service centre.
