The holiday home on the outskirts of Mumbles sleeps four guests and makes an ideal couples’ retreat or base for a small family looking to explore the beautiful coastline surrounding Swansea Bay. Spend your days eating ice creams on the pier in Mumbles, sunbathing at the breathtaking Langland Bay, or stretching your legs on an exhilarating coastal hike. There’s also a lovely woodland walk directly from the rear of the property, which leads you to the impressive Oystermouth Castle.

This home-away-from-home has a contemporary style and relaxing, neutral paintwork. The spacious, open-plan lounge/diner is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring, curled up in an armchair with a good book or watching a film on the TV/DVD. Enjoy mealtimes together in the pretty dining area, where there’s also a handy hatch through to the kitchen. Completing the ground floor is the sleek kitchen, with all the equipment you need to cook up a storm. Upstairs, two restful bedrooms await – choose from an inviting king-size or a cosy twin. The family bathroom completes the accommodation. On balmy, summer nights, relax in the pretty, enclosed courtyard garden, which enjoys distant views over Swansea Bay.

A short 200-metre stroll brings you down to the seafront, where you can follow the promenade to Blackpill (1.5 miles) or Mumbles (0.5 miles). For families visiting in summer months, a trip to Blackpill Lido is a must, with its paddling pools, splash pad, and play areas. The heart of Mumbles is bursting with Welsh charm, with a fabulous collection of independent shops and eateries showcasing local produce and fresh seafood. If it’s a day at the beach you’re after, the breathtaking Langland Bay with its golden sand and turquoise waters is just 1.5 miles away.

A lovely location, so convenient for walking into Mumbles or to the beach. Easy drives out across the Gower. Loved the rainfall shower and kitchen was fully equipped.
