Mrs Sheldon
Lovely cottage, well equipped extremely comfortable beds. views from the garden and balcony were amazing .the downfall was the lack of parking other wise we couldn't fault it, our only downfall was having to leave after 2 days because of a family bereavement and not being able to stay the whole week

Mrs Barrow
Lovely cottage, fully equipped with everything we needed. Fantastic wooden floors throughout, lovely comfortable beds. Amazing roof terrace with a great view and another great view of the beach from an area at the back of the garden. Everything you need is within walking distance. If you walk into town, the road is very steep coming back up and narrow for driving up.

Lovely holiday home with good access to shops and restaurants in the Mumbles. Comfortable beds , well equipped kitchen ,good WiFi,nice neighbours. Great balcony off main bedroom with sea views. Support team very helpful. On a very steep hill,we parked our car on Higher Lane which was only a couple of minutes walk using the cut through passage.
