Guests say
Periwinkle Cottage in Mumbles offers stunning views and a comfortable stay, with friendly neighbours adding to the charm. While access is noted to be challenging due to steep roads, the location's tranquillity and the well-equipped nature of the cottage provide a pleasant holiday experience. Some attention to maintenance and clearer instructions for arrival would enhance the stay.
The cottage was described as clean by one reviewer, but another mentioned that it could have been cleaner. This suggests that cleanliness is generally satisfactory, with room for improvement.
The location is praised for its fantastic views and quietness, although the steep and narrow access roads are noted. The charm of the area seems to outweigh the accessibility concerns.
Guests found the cottage comfortable, mentioning specifically the beds and the shower. However, there were no further details on other aspects of comfort.
The cottage is described as well-equipped, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues, such as a need for better kitchen equipment and a light repair. This indicates that while facilities are adequate, they require attention.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owners, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Overall very comfortable and quiet, but would benefit from some tlc. The roads leading to the cottage are steep and narrow .

A quirky holiday cottage. Could have been a little more attention to cleanliness, equipment (eg. old frying pan needs throwing out and replacing), light in kitchen over cooker needed repair; should have mentioned steep hill to access property.
