Welcome to Cwmcarn Village Community Website
Cwmcarn Village is a small village in South Wales. It is just a 15 minute walk from the "Cwmcarn Forest Drive".
Our small village offers local stores such as our butchers, pizza, fish & chips, Indian takeaway, flowers, gifts, cards and beauty treatments as well as a few fine pubs to have a refreshing drink after that walk. Take a look at "What's in the Village" to find out more details.
CwmCarnival June 27th - was amazing!
The village recently held it's first carnival in many many years! It was amazing!!
The Cwmcarnival procession breathed life once again back to the valleys, reigniting a Carnival tradition that means so much to the community. Take a look at the film. It captures every unforgettable moment—the colour, the sound, the energy, the smiles and the pride that filled the valley and streets of Cwmcarn a lasting record of a historic day that brought people together, reminding everyone what we as community can achieve.
This timepiece is produced and sponsored by Dainton Lee, with outstanding cinematography by Dainton Lee and Scott Carey.
