Had a lovely weekend with friends. Cottage is charming and cosy. Lovely walks around and pub just up the road. Town walking distance away as well as 2 large supermarkets. Quite hilly so need to consider this if anyone has mobility or breathing issues. Easy drive to the mumbles & Swansea. Stairs in cottage are quite narrow and a little steep but we didn't have a problem. Great having a conservatory to sit in and view the hills around - a bit too chilly to sit outside. Beds were really comfortable. Only minor negative comments were we didn't get a welcome pack of bread & cakes that most reviews mentioned & there was no proper wine glasses but we had plenty of other glasses to use.

Great little cottage. Everything you need in the kitchen. Well heated and comfortable. Provided crate for the dog, great little enclosed garden and nearby dog walks.Near to the Gower, Swansea and about 1 hour from Cardiff. Lots of places to explore, fabulous scenery.

Lovely house to stay in and suited our needsReally cosy inside and has pretty much everything you’d need. It had Christmas decorations up as well which was lovely The driveway is pretty tight - if you have a big car it might not be suitable. There is on-road parking thoughThere is no duvet on one of the beds - there is a blanket, but really it could do with a proper duvet especially in the winter. If we stayed again we would have to bring a duvet, as during our stay one person had to go without and it was cold as we stayed in December.Other than that it is really a lovely stay!
