As you enter the living room via three stone steps from the dining area, your eye is immediately drawn to the beautiful open fireplace.

Large house in a good location for exploring Gower, enjoyed seeing the sheep and (?) ponies wandering the lane outside. There are great views of the nature reserve from the house, and Whiteford beach is absolutely stunning. House was well equipped with kitchen equipment etc. but we personally did think that the soft furnishings needed a deep clean Read moreand the kitchen cupboards needed cleaning internally. Hide

A nice garden set in woodland with fantastic views from the house. It is set in a lovely location conveniently near the sea with plenty of good and varied walks directly from the house. Exploring the The GoRead morewer by car is an easy option. The best holiday house we have stayed in for accommodation and location. Hide
