Offering garden views, Cosy cottage in peaceful location is an accommodation set in Swansea, 13 km from Oxwich Bay and 21 km from Rhossili Bay. This guest house features free private parking, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 10 km from Grand Theatre.

We had a 5-day holiday here in June 2024 which we absolutely loved! The cottage is in Gower, a short drive from Swansea Town and beach. The location is amazing and gives a great countryside feeling. The house itself is amazing and very well maintained. The garden outside is breathtaking and beautifully maintained. The owner Mr. Peter still stays in part of the house and is very warm and helpful and gave us lots of guidance for the area. The place is stocked with every comfort imaginable, and feels very cozy and homely. Downstairs included a large dining table and chairs, and a big TV in the lounge, lots of kitchen utensils with basics provided such as oil, milk, salt and pepper, tea, coffee etc. Upstairs included multiple rooms with lots of pillows, blankets, towels and toiletries, and a spacious bathroom. Given all this comforts, we had a wonderful relaxing holiday and will certainly come back again to this beautiful location!

Housed in a historic building, the recently renovated Westbrook-Homestay provides accommodation with a garden and free WiFi. The property features garden and quiet street views, and is 1.3 km from Swansea Beach. Outdoor seating allows guests to enjoy the fresh air.

You don't often get the opportunity to stay in an amazing historic property like this one, the experience was great. Alice is a lovely host and was even so kind as to take me to the train station because it was raining. You feel welcome, safe and comfortable. Lovely quiet house with a great atmosphere, you are staying in someone's home, not a hotel, so it has a different feel.

    Very good host, Nia was very attentive and made sure we had all the information we needs. The cottage was immaculate, comfortable and warm when we arrived and really handy for the places we were going. Stunning views and a great location. Tea coffee milk and sugar all provided and the wee packet of delicious Welsh cakes was a lovely touch. Excellent!

    Everything! Sarah is a great host. You asked for something that you need and she will definitely do her best to grant your request. The room is spacious, clean and has comfy beds. The breakfast is delicious and fresh. Thursday curry night is also additional plus points. My Husband enjoyed the welsh lager and welsh beer and made/ feel welcome by the locals.
