Overflowing with rural charm, this quaint cottage in the Gower Peninsula provides the perfect idyllic escape from it all for small families or groups of friends. Sitting in the unspoiled village of Llanmadoc, it offers stunning views across the Pembrokeshire coastline and the Preseli Mountains. Pack a picnic and spend a glorious day at Rhossili Bay Beach (9 miles). At the southern end of the beach, you’ll find the tidal island of Worm's Head, which you can walk to during two hours either side of low tide. Keep your eyes peeled for grey seals. Or head to the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust’s Llanelli Wetland Centre (14.5 miles) to explore 450 acres of rare wetland and visit the Caribbean flamingos. If you’re feeling a little livelier, head to Pembrey Country Park (23.5 miles) to try out the longest toboggan slide in Wales.
Step inside to discover a chic interior dusted with pretty period features. Make yourself at home by the wood burner in the lounge, or take a little time chilling out in the sitting area. When it’s time for dinner, head to the kitchen/diner to cook up a storm. You’ll find everything you need to let your culinary skills shine, as well as an intimate dining area with French doors leading out into the garden. A handy family bathroom with a bath with shower over and WC rounds off the ground-floor layout. Make your way upstairs and find two inviting bedrooms – a king-size with an en-suite WC and a single with an additional pull-out bed (please request at the time of booking if the pull-out bed is required).
Head outside to discover a wonderful tiered garden with bistro-style table and chairs, further seating and a dining table and chairs. It’s the perfect place to dine alfresco or crack open a bottle of something cool and crisp and watch the stars come out.
