Property code: OC-P28298

This charming and historic cottage sits within the Gower AONB and offers the perfect base for families and their pooch to explore the Welsh coastline from. The host village of Southgate offers a nice choice of local shops, eateries and pubs for guests to make use of. Lovers of the outdoors will enjoy the wealth of historical landmarks, dramatic coastal walks and hidden beaches all on offer nearby. Just a mile away is Three Cliffs Bay which offers a spectacular sandy beach surrounded by sand dunes, salt marsh and the dramatic limestone cliffs that give the beach its name. The ancient ruins of Pennard Castle (1 mile) is another popular spot thanks to the enjoyable walk that leads you to the site with its wonderful view over the bay.

With traditional furnishings and exposed wooden beams throughout, this renovated cottage shows evidence of its history that dates back to 1780. It’s charming and cosy, and is ready to help you relax on your coastal getaway. The lounge offers comfortable seating and a Smart TV, plus patio doors that lead outside. The spacious kitchen and dining room has all you need to cook your favourite family meals away from home whilst overlooking the courtyard patio. Completing the ground floor is a handy shower room and WC, plus a utility corner within the kitchen to keep you all refreshed. Discover the secret narrow spiral staircase in the kitchen to head upstairs to the two bedrooms; a king-size and a twin room that can both make use of the family bathroom.

Outside, guests can benefit from an enclosed garden where little ones and furry friends can spend their energy. And in the warmer months, enjoy alfresco meals and morning coffees using the outdoor seating.

Great cottage but the low doorways and very tricky stairs should be more emphasized Also be aware of cows right adjacent to cottage especially if you have a dog

The cottage was rustic and very comfortable. The spiral stairs could be tricky for some but we quickly got used to them. The location of the cottage was perfect for the beautiful Three Cliffs Bay and the village had everything you need: coffee shops, village store and a community bar. We had a lovely relaxing week.

We had an absolutely brilliant time in your wonderful tastefully and generously equipped cottage. 15 min safe walk (only one road to cross straight by the house) led to 'beach heaven' and lots of walks. Different lights/tidal movements makes the same walk a new experience everyday so we never ventured far - except for one visit to Rhossili Beach whRead moreich is a must. Beds and sofas are comfortable - everything we needed was there and in good working order. Have patience to work out stuff like the lovely vintage lamps (switches are on the wall). We liked the pub down the road for a drink and to mingle with the friendly locals but weren't drawn in further by the menu. We had a great time thank you!!! Hide

The cottage has a comfortable lounge and bedrooms. Beds have good quality mattresses and linen. The lounge is small but comfortable. The kitchen is adequate. Table and chairs are old-fashioned, tired and let the property down. We understand the VERY close old bungalow on the same site (sharing the garden) is also to be converted/upgraded to a hRead moreoliday let. If that happened it would impinge a great deal on the privacy of the cottage guests. We would not book it again under those circumstances. Would cautiously recommend as it stands. Hide
