Overview
Property code: OC-HH2123

Nestled in the serene village of Oxwich, this charming holiday home is perfect for large groups of friends and family. Be it for a multi-generational holiday or a celebratory getaway, these two previously separate properties are now connected to accommodate larger numbers. Ensuring fun for all the families in the local area, Oxwich Bay is less than a mile away for days spent at the beach indulging in seaside activities such as swimming, surfing, and sunbathing.

As you enter the first cottage, you will be greeted by a cosy living room with two comfortable sofas, two armchairs, and a traditional oil-burning stove that adds to the room’s charm. The kitchen has everything you’ll need to fix up a feast for a large group and the spacious dining area with an extendable table can seat up to 12 people and provides ample space to enjoy a home-cooked meal. The ground floor also features a downstairs bedroom, furnished with twin beds, a chest of drawers, an electric fireplace and a TV for a real feeling of home. Upstairs are a further three bedrooms, comprising a bunk room, a double room and a king-sized bedroom with an en-suite shower room. A bathroom with an electric shower over a bath, a WC, and a washbasin completes the first floor.

The smaller property of the two then has a second living room with a three-seater sofa, two armchairs, a TV, and an open fire for those who need a little peace during their holiday. This part of the property also boasts a small kitchen, a bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath, and a separate WC on the ground floor. On the first floor, there are a further two bedrooms, a king-sized bedroom and a twin room, both of which share use of the shower room. Out in the garden, there is a beautiful seating area where guests can gather around to eat and drink together, as well as space for younger children to run and play.

Explore the scenic countryside by taking a stroll through the village keeping your eyes peeled for the iconic Oxwich Castle and Oxwich Wood where you can spot rare local wildlife. Offering the perfect balance between coast, countryside and city life, you can visit Swansea (13 miles) for a day of shopping, ensuring to stop off at Swansea Bay to soak in the beauty of the area just a few miles from the bustling centre. Another must-visit whilst staying in the area is Mumbles, where you’ll find the finest local ice cream, a historic Victorian pier and a friendly, fishing village culture.

Bull Croft Cottage is in an amazing location, very close to Oxwich Bay. It sleeps 12 comfortably and the owners left a bed for an extra child. The secluded garden and seating was excellent for a picnic lunch. The local shop was very useful for milk and Welsh cakes as well as selling a fantastic selection of ice creams.

The cottage is a bit shabby - this was not a problem for us with lots of children but some people might not find it so appealing. The Aga may also be a problem for others - we have one so are used to them! But, please supply an oven glove, getting heavy pans out of an Aga with small children around with a thin T towel is not fun!!!

Bull Croft Cottage is in an excellent location, very close to the beach, ideal for our families and their 4 young children. Although in the centre of Oxwich it was very peaceful. The cottage is spacious and comfortable with a homely feel. It has a good combination of rooms to accommodate an extended family group. The garden is large enough and safeRead more for children to play in. My only complaint is with regard to the arrangements for rubbish and re-cycling. Not all the correct bags and bins were supplied and the calendar for collection days was out of date. Hide
