Description

Location, location, location AND brimming with every comfort you can possibly wish for, this extremely generously proportioned holiday home is hard to beat. Driftwood House sits on East Cliff, Gower, very close to the award-winning Three Cliffs Bay, just a 20-minute walk. A Lloyds Bank report reported that Eastcliff was one of the 5 most prestigious addresses in Wales.

There are three balconies from which to admire the stunning sea views that look out over Hunts Bay and across to the north Devon coast, or retreat to the enclosed courtyard where there's plenty of space to dine al-fresco. Other features include an inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel stove, a large bespoke kitchen, a huge family bathroom with roll top bath and a generous shower area, plus 3 of the 4 bedrooms have en suite facilities.

One of the best views of the nearby Three Cliffs Bay can be found locally from Pennard Golf Course, and whether you decide to play a round of golf or simply take in the view, there in front of you is Pennard Castle perching the star of the backdrop where the landmark cliffs fall to the sea, surrounded by the lush hill side where sheep graze and wild ponies roam freely. The nearby and recently opened 'The Cliff Restaurant' offers excellent meals with the popular Three Cliffs Coffee Shop below it being popular with walkers and locals. Southgate also has a popular pub called The Southgate Club which has undergone a recent refurbishment.

**3-night short breaks and more are accepted as long as it is between changeover day only**

Mrs D,

The property was everything that was described. Could not faulty in any way. Beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean.

Mrs M,

Wonderful views from the front of the house out to sea over the coast path and towards the cliffs on the next headland to the east. Very quiet location within easy walking distance of shop and cafe. Lovely walks along the cliffs and inland.

Mr S,
