About this property
Penmaen Manor is set in a perfect seaside location with fine golden sands as far as the eye can see. Dunes and downs surround the house for walkers and naturalists to explore. Overlooking Three Cliffs Bay and only a 15 minute walk down a rugged path over the dunes to Great Tor Bay - 30 minutes back! This is a safe walk with no roads to cross. Tor Bay is a superb sweep of very fine sand backed by high dunes curving 2 miles round to Oxwich.Garden feature - the garden pavilion is a cool or cosy outdoor Summerhouse where you can enjoy undercover garden pleasures such as pre-dinner drinks, light lunches, or just recovering after a long beach walk. The countryside nearby is ideal for walking and riding and a painters dream. There are good local pubs and Swansea is 15 minutes drive, which has marvelous shops, restaurants, marina and maritime museum, one of the largest markets in Wales, cinemas, theatres and golf courses.

Large landscaped gardens surround the house with plenty of space, even to have a game of cricket!
