Lying midway between the villages of Penmaen and Ilston, it's a short but lovely walk to Three Cliffs Bay and just 10 minutes' drive to Mumbles. Pennard Castle, the Gower Heritage Centre, the medieval deer park and Parc le Breos are also conveniently placed on the doorstep.

Renovation of this 150 year-old property has been both sympathetic and creative; retaining original features including vaulted ceilings and oak beams, fixtures and fittings and quirky design details. The landscaping in the back garden is delightful and another key feature is that built over three floors, a stone spiral staircase rises up through the centre connecting the floors.

Reviews

Amazing location for walking directly from the house & enjoyed hot tub/sauna after all the walking! Everyone super happy with sky sports so no cricket or rugby missed! Good size kitchen for meals & living rooms very comfortable - really enjoyed our holiday here & will be booking it for next year!

Mrs C,

Lovely holiday home that is equipped with all you need for a perfect family holiday. The outdoor hot tub and sauna were a bonus and very much appreciated! Very comfortable, great TV options if wanted, plenty of games, bar billiards, pub and shop within a few minutes walk. A very pleasant and easy walk to the amazing Three Cliffs Bay, short drive to other local beaches, Langland Bay and Caswell Bay. First time for us staying in The Gower, normally go to Cornwall, but would highly recommend.

Mrs S,

The kitchen and glasses were all soaking wet when we arrived. The pictures didn’t show that there was a steep spiral staircase running through the middle of the property which was a worry for our toddler. Other than that we had a really lovely holiday and really enjoyed the facilities.

Miss Kathleen R,

The outside water tap wasn't turned on and there was no hose attached so we could top up the hot tub. The key to the cwtch could not be found so we could turn on the sauna. Both matters were solved after a call to the company. Also a sewage smell was reported in the downstairs ensuite. There was no welcome pack provided and no bags for us to place linen and towels when departing.

Miss Marina H,

Location

Swansea, Mumbles village and some of Gower's best beaches and landmarks (Worms Head, Rossilli, Oxwich and Llangenith) are all within 10 to 20 minutes' drive. Plus you can enjoy a fabulous short walk from Shepherds to Three Cliffs Bay, a strikingly beautiful award-winning beach with a world famous view.
