Excellent location for local sightseeing. The accommodation was ideal for our needs and the cottage was well equipped. The welcome pack of welsh cakes and jam was a nice touch. The only niggle was the barbecue had been used and not cleaned and we couldn't find any suitable cleaning equipment.,so we didn't use it. Other than that it was a very enjoyable holiday

A fabulous stay at Dairymaids cottage! The cottage is absolutely beautiful, cosy and welcoming with everything you could need for a relaxing break.The location is fantastic too. Very peaceful and surrounded by the gorgeous Gower countryside whilst still being within easy reach of some amazing beaches. A perfect base for exploring Rhossili, the Gower and the beautiful Swansea coastline. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend and return. A gorgeous little cottage.

As long as you are aware that the Dairymaids is part of a complex of holiday cottages, so the photo you see is free of cars, when actually you share with 4 others.
