Nestled in a beautiful rural position yet within 5 miles of vibrant Swansea, this picturesque cottage sleeps four and is an ideal choice for families and small groups. A paradise for walkers, you’ll have lots of choice when it comes to exploring as there’s a plethora of cliff-top walks and countryside ambles to discover. After a busy day, there’s nothing quite like sipping an ice-cold drink in your enclosed, shared garden before tucking into a delicious BBQ feast.

Beneath the stone and wood exterior is a comfortable and welcoming retreat that’s been thoughtfully equipped with comfy sofas for relaxing, and handy cooking and dining space for mealtimes. The views through the patio doors are impressive and stepping outside and beyond the garden reveals over 26 acres of fields and farmland to investigate. Weary from your day, the two bedrooms are a peaceful retreat for a restful night’s sleep, and there is also a generous family shower room.

A hub of history, culture and food, Swansea has plenty to offer guests of all tastes whether you are tempted by the hustle and bustle of the marina or prefer a quiet stroll around a museum. The coastline surrounding Swansea is known for its pristine beaches and family-friendly allure, so you’ll be able to embrace a traditional day beside the seaside at Mumbles 6 miles away. The romantic Rhossili Bay and impressive Worm’s Head will appeal to adventure seekers, as will the rugged countryside of the Gower Peninsular as a whole.

Property was clean and well equiped. Decent views out the back and it was nice to see the horses. It is quite a small property for a family of 4 and was hot upstairs but overall it was a good place to stay.

Our hosts were very welcoming. This is a perfect location near to both beaches and countryside. Use of the barn for the bikes was great. The cottage has lovely views of the horses and is bright and warm. We would definitely come back here again.
