We booked Ty Glas for the family to stay together for a week after my sons wedding. He lives in the Mumbles so I know the area well and wanted somewhere central, and we certainly wasn't disappointed. The accommodation itself was clean, homely and was well equipped to the extent that as it was a week before Christmas we were able to cook a full ChRead moreristmas dinner for 8 people with ease. With just a minutes walk to the high street the location was perfect for shopping and cafes with easy access to an Indian takeaway and fish and chip shop. The seafront restaurants were just a ten minute walk away. Would certainly recommend this property, thank you for a lovely stay. Hide

The house is extremely well equipped and could readily accommodate 6 people. We were a party of 3 adults, including an 80 year old, and a dachshund. We booked because of its proximity to beach but extensive work on the prom made it a long walk to access the beach. Verdis ice cream parlour was a welcome reward. The equipment and utensils in the houRead morese are very high spec, everything you could possibly need to self cater. No ground floor cloakroom unfortunately and the walk in shower is up on the second floor. Overall the property is more like a family home than a holiday let. Hide

Well equipped house in a good location . Great for dog walks and cafes and restaurants. Parking space is at the back of the property, accessed by a very narrow lane. Paperwork confirmed access to property from 3pm but we were told we couldn't get in until 4pm as cleaners were still onsite- shame. Worth checking or calling before you arrive!

Wonderful house which was very homely and comfortable. Everything you may need during your stay was provided for. Joes (ice cream), Gregs (bakery) and Johnnies (fish & chip) all within a stones throw which we really appreciated! Kids really enjoyed the big wheel on the pier.

We really enjoyed our stay in the Mumbles. The house is very lovely and homely. We ate a lot of ice cream and tried a new place called ripples which is just a short walk along the coastal path. The adults preferred Rhossili beach where as the kids preferred Langland as the body boarding waves were terrific. M&S around the corner was very handy forRead more food and drink.
