Great location, with walks from the door. Pobbles pizza and the deli are both really good and the shop had a good selection. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the cottage is well kitted out.

This was our first trip to The Gower Peninsula and the location of Driftwood Cottage couldnt have been more perfect with direct access to the coastal path for early morning and evening walks with our dog. All the best beaches were literally in the doorstep or a short drive away. Would highly recommend The Gower Deli and The Gower Inn for great foodRead more! The cottage itself felt like a high end boutique hotel with a fabulous kitchen, we are looking forward to staying again and thank you to the hosts for making us feel so welcome. Hide
