Property code: OC-HH411

Escape to this characterful chalet-style property, surrounded by the stunning landscapes of the Gower. With two bedrooms, a sofa bed, two lounges and a lovely outside space, this quirky property has more than enough room for a family or group of up to six people and their dogs. This property is near Pennard (0.5 miles), where you’ll find general stores, pubs, amenities and the Pennard Golf Course. A walk or drive of around 1.5 miles will take you to Three Cliffs Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches in Wales, if not the whole of Britain. The Gower area is renowned for its natural beauty, adventure sports, hiking trails and wildlife-watching opportunities. However, if you prefer more urban exploits, Swansea, with all its shops, entertainment, and nightlife, is just 8 miles away.

This unique property is built in the style of an Alpine chalet. Approach the house via a paved lawn path and step up onto the pretty wooden porch, complete with a painted wooden porch swing. Enter the chalet and walk through the beautifully finished kitchen into a large, airy living area with a high beamed ceiling, comfortable leather sofas, a wood burner, and a dining table with seating for six. Also on the ground floor are two bathrooms - one with a bath and one with a wet room-style shower - plus a separate cloakroom with WC for added convenience. The two ground-floor bedrooms comprise one king-size, and one single with an additional pull-out bed if required. The single bedroom has French doors leading onto the porch. Climb the wooden stairs from the lounge to the mezzanine level to find a second lounge space with three sofas and a wooden balcony rail which you can peer over at the lounge below. One of the sofas can be converted into a double bed if required.

Glass doors lead outside from the mezzanine to a wooden balcony offering stunning views of the Gower peninsula, coastline and spectacular Three Cliffs Bay. A table and chairs make this an idyllic place to sit out with a coffee or a book. In addition to the mezzanine balcony and the front porch, this property has a large front lawn and a terraced back garden complete with a deck area with a toddler slide and a raised patio. The patio is home to rattan garden furniture and a parasol, and enjoys beautiful views of the countryside and coast. A gate leads from the garden to a public footpath around Pennard Golf Course.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 king-size, 1 single with additional pull-out single
  • 2 bathrooms – 1 bathroom with bath and WC, 1 wet room with shower and WC, plus 1 separate WC
  • Gas hob, extractor fan, electric oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave
  • Wood burner
  • Underfloor heating
  • TV, DVD
  • Balcony with seating, and rear terraced garden with a deck and a patio, comfortable rattan dining furniture and parasol, and toddler slide, plus direct access to Pennard Golf Course
  • Private parking
  • Shop, pub and beach 1 mile
  • Low, sloping ceilings with reduced head height on the mezzanine
  • Please note, access to the property is via an unmade road, and although there are potholes, it is suitable for most vehicles
  • Sleeps 4+2: 1 double sofa bed in the mezzanine lounge (bed linen and towels not provided)
  • Arrival: 16:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00

We have 2 giant breed dogs and the space in this property was fantastic for them. The garden was secure & the dogs loved their playtime outside. Walks from the back door of the property so you don't even need the car all the time. Wonderfully clean, comfortable, well equipped and amazing views from the balcony. Looking to return.

Lovely house and location. You are straight onto footpaths which head to a beautiful beach so fantastic for dog walking. Two pubs, a shop and a cafe all reached via footpaths so a lead is rarely needed! Lovely laid back golf course course on your doorstep too and lots of beautiful,friendly free range cows which come right up to the gate and even dRead moreown to the pub! Hide

Woodside is a lovely comfortable clean cottage with loads of room. The location is excellent, nice walk to three cliffs and loads of coastal works from the back gate. Also shops, coffee shops and pub all in walking distance. Didn't need to use the car all week.

Beautifully equipped cottage in a fabulous location. Perfect for walking and accessing the beaches. This is my second stay at Woodside and I appreciate the improvements that have been carried out since my last stay.

After all even public toilets provide hand soap! Hide

Property has a washing machine which isnt mentioned on the site. Also it has an outside tap and hose pipe that also isnt mentioned. These items, particularly the tap, are very useful to know when you have a dog and are planning walks. Knowing that you can clean dirty dogs and muddy boots can tip the balance when deciding to book. The approach to thRead moree property is challenging! It does say on the site that it is an unmade road..and it really is! I have an all road vehicle and we found the pot holes and surface very challenging. Anyone with a sports car or low slung vehicle should avoid this property. The property was wonderfully warm and comfortable. Loved the wood burner. Its location is perfect to walk from as the back gate gives access to loads of footpaths. Its a very quiet location and also perfect for dark skies. We were lucky to have very clear nights for star spotting. I would definitely recommend this property and will look to stay again Hide
