Located in the village of Scurlage, on the Gower Peninsula, sits this charming one-bedroom cottage. Close to beautiful beaches and coastal paths, it’s an ideal retreat for couples looking to immerse themselves in nature. From the property, it’s 4 miles to Oxwich Bay, a family-friendly sandy beach. It’s a good place to relax, swim or walk the dog. From here, walkers can enjoy a 7.5-mile scenic hike to Rhossili Bay and Worm’s Head. At the end of Rhossili Bay, Worm’s Head offers a hiking trail and plenty of wildlife including seals, buzzards, and red kites.

Originally a two-stall livery, the property has been converted with care and attention into a cheerful home. Beautifully appointed, a sense of comfortable elegance sweeps through the open-plan ground floor. Framed artwork and a reclining sofa make the lounge an inviting spot, while floor-to-ceiling windows drench the space in natural, uplifting light. Relax and watch a film on the TV or unwind in the armchair with a good book. The neat kitchen features all the appliances you’ll need to create a delicious meal, then you can serve it at the dining table with seating for four people. The bedroom is on the first floor and is accessed via a staircase. Furnished in creamy tones, it’s a soothing space and features a double bed, skylights, and a huge front window. There’s also a TV for your entertainment and an en-suite shower room.

Outside, a patio dotted with potted plants is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy afternoon tea. The large garden, shared with two other cottages on the site, is a tranquil space.

The pigsty was great, very neat, tidy, clean and quite swish with all we needed to enjoy our stay. If back on the Gower peninsular would like to stay there again.

You had a Home from Home feeling, very comfortable. The Hostess was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The cottage is ideally placed to explore the Gower.
