The area is available for visiting. Please respect the area. It is really a lovely spot and the local people are very kind and helpful. The small chapel has beautiful windows with sun shining of course the best and nice to see. A small way starts behind the chapel and goes down to Soden waterfalls. A hidden gem

The Afon Soden flows out of the steep valley to this pretty little bay and beach. It's accessible on the Wales Coast Path but a good mile from the nearest roads so it's never busy. Lovely place though.
