Wenvoe is a Welsh village in the Vale of Glamorgan located on the western side of a shallow valley between Cardiff and Barry, surrounded by woods and farmland providing endless country walks.

Wenvoe is a popular commuter village conveniently situated for the City of Cardiff but set in the countryside only a few miles from the sea and with easy access to the M4 motorway a few miles away.

The village was developed around the parish church which can be traced back to the 12th Century with the adjacent locality now being a conservation area.

The village has a well-stocked store with a post office, a church, primary school, a public house and Travelodge, a part time library and three village halls.

Wenvoe has a very healthy community spirit which supports many local community groups with activities to suit everyone.
