Gower Outlook Penthouse
We had a wonderful stay in Mary's beautiful apartment with glorious views out over the estuary. Very comfortable, and everything explained clearly. A lovely long-weekend break. Thank you!

Beachfront Apartment
We enjoyed this modern apartment with all its home comforts that you need, the view was amazing from the lounge window. The location was perfect with the coastal path being outside the apartment, we were blessed with great weather.

Seaside Beach Retreat in Mumbles
We loved our stay at this apartment myself, partner and our girls 10,5, we loved the easy walk to the pier and parks! We had some wonderful food standout was Carribean inside The George just a few doors down, but also enjoyed the Mermaid Cafe next door for our arrival tea! The apartments so clean, high spec and such comfortable beds!!.. The girls loved playing a game of Dominoes and enjoyed the luxury bath.. We travelled from Bristol never having been to the Gower specifically Mumbles and we asked ourselves why we hadn’t and will definitely return for more visits! Catherine was helpful with what we needed and felt had we needed anything we would have had a great response although great communication and location we had everything we needed!

Langland Sea-View Apartment-3 Bed, Balcony+Parking
Phoebe & James were so kind. They surprise decorated the apartment for my birthday, asked if we needed anything. Honestly amazing and kind hosts. The apartment is exactly like the photos, big, spacious, clean, the balcony was large and spacious. The views were amazing. We had a day there where it rained and the views were still incredible. My parents loved this place so much, they’ve said they will be booking here in the future :) People are friendly and sweet, beach is beautiful. Everything was perfect and had ALL that you needed. Thank you so much! xx

Ice House Apartment 6
Apartment 6 at Ice House is even nicer than the pictures, I assure you. The apartment has a huge open plan kitchen, living, and dining space, very tall ceiling with a lot of natural light, plus a whopping great big L shaped balcony with a table and chairs. It's the perfect spot for entertaining, so very good if you're visiting friends in Swansea and want to cook a meal or share a bottle of wine. We were treated to fantastic weather as well, so were especially appreciative of the balcony. The location is great as you get lovely views of the marina, with restaurants and bars just a stones throw away. If you want a particularly quiet evening though, the music from the surrounding bars may put you off a bit, but it's lovely and quiet in the actual apartment once you shut the balcony door or go to chill in the bedroom. Check in and check out were both very easy, and there's a 24hr car park just a few minute's walk from the building, so all in all, very convenient. This apartment has definitely set the tone for staying over in Swansea, I may never be able to go back to a Premier Inn again. Lovely place, 10/10.

Beach View Flat on Coastal Path
This was our second stay at Michelle's place and we found the flat to be as lovely as the first time. The check in instructions were clear and we found the parking spot with no trouble. The rooms were spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. We also appreciated the lovely welsh cakes Michelle had left out for us. I would not hesitate to recommend staying here.

MODERN COASTAL PARK APARTMENT, 30 SECS FROM BEACH
We had a lovely stay despite storm Burt! Nice walk on the beach, fantastic meal at St Elli brasserie and we enjoyed the carnival. Great spot for a getaway

The Bower at Crud yr Awel, Rhossili
Great place to stay for a few days. Beautiful area with lots to walk to.

Woodcutter’s Cottage - Magical riverside location
Suzanne and Mark were wonderful, friendly hosts. From a delicious welcome hamper, to great recommendations for places to visit, our every need was catered for. The cottage was beautifully done, with thoughtful details and design. The private garden was a great place to unwind with a cup of tea (and the best Welsh cakes in wales!) whilst listening to the birds and the stream. If you’re as lucky as we were, you may get to catch Mark playing the fiddle with ‘Strung Together’ The cottage is a little slice of heaven that we will definitely revisit again!

Coastal Retreat in Carmarthenshire
Johnathan was a very responsive host. The property was ideal for our larger family. The property is situated a stones throw away from the most beautiful beach. The rooms are clean, light and airy. All bathrooms were equipped with soap, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Johnathon even gave us a late check out on the Sunday morning because of the weather which was very much appreciated

The Caswell bay hide out
Oh my gosh what a beautiful place this was! Me and my partner had a perfect night away it was so peaceful and the views were absolutely stunning! It was honestly one of my favourite places I’ve stayed and I was gutted we only booked one night, so will definitely be returning in the future!

Seaside cottage in Horton, Gower
Another fantastic few days at Vera’s beautiful place at Horton. The house is immaculate and has recently been decorated so it looks even better. You cannot beat the location, right on the beach with amazing panoramic views. If you want a quiet break, with great walks and a beach front location this would be hard to beat.

Tranquility by the sea at No 9
The view from the deck alone is worth the 5 stars. Only had a night and our last minute booking wasn’t a problem for Anwen who was very responsive and helpful. Had a great meal and a warm welcome in the bar at 3 rivers hotel 5 minutes down the road. We walked the estuary at low tide - watch out for muddy sections. Also walked up the hill above the hotel for even more stunning views from the top.

Lovely house on the beach front in Llansteffan
What a lovely place - clean, well decorated, comfortable, right on the beautiful beach AND with a private parking space. It’s honestly a home from home. Janine is lovely and provided a tailored welcome pack for us. She is welcoming, proactive in communicating and always responsive. Can’t wait to return 😁

Stunning 6 bedroom home with Views of the Estuary
The Cottage was stunning and in a fantastic location. Mostly everything you needed was there even bath towels. The rooms were lovely and well presented. The place was welcoming and clean and the view over the river/estury was amazing. Such a peaceful location ideal for families right next to the town, walks, pubs, restaurants, shop, castle and the Dylan Thomas boathouse. Parking is limited around so the 6 car driveway was useful. Communication was excelkent too. We would really recommend.

Gorgeous Fishermans Cottage Mumbles
Great place to stay for a visit to Mumbles. The house is literally within 1 min from the beautiful seaside in the quiet part of Mumbles. There is a set of stairs to reach the terrace where the house is located, so people with special needs should be mindful of that. Restaurants, cafes, and pubs are literally within 5 minutes walk from the property and about 10-15 minutes walk to the town center. The place has fully equipped kitchen, two bedrooms and nice big bathroom. Everything you need to a great stay. Our host was responsive and helpful during our stay. We would definitely recommend this place!

Mumblesseascape
Lovely location and modern flat in a very unique setting. Walk to everything and great views of the water. Nice outdoor space in front and private outdoor space in the back. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Apartment by the Beach
Really good location and lovely flat with a great view of the marina

Lighthouse View
A great apartment in an even better location. Right on the coastal path and Loughor estuary the views are amazing and change completely with the weather and times of day. We spent one night on the balcony watching the stars and some meteors and the next watching a distant storm. Make sure to pack some binoculars. The apartment is clean and comfortable with all necessary amenities and then some. A great kitchen, lounge and bathrooms. The three floors up might be challenging for some, I had a moon boot on during our stay, took a while to get up but the stairs are nicely spaced. it's a great place to go and chill and a great base to visit local attractions or to just wander down to the beach. Would for sure go back again. especially when I can walk more(at all 😂)

Sea view apartment at the beach!
Great apartment and location. Fantastic views of the sea and proximity to beach and coastal path. Mel was very helpful and communicative and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch. Thanks so much for a wonderful few days !

Beach Front, Sea view, Swansea city, Marina

Stunning Sea View Two Bed Two Bathroom Apartment
Great accommodation, spacious, quiet, spotlessly clean, great location with beautiful surroundings and a wonderful host, highly recommended and would stay again.

Swansea Bay View- 2 bedroom Luxury Apartment
Great apartment and location with fabulous views. Host was friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Well appointed kitchen too and the balcony was a nice addition too. The car parking space was thankfully a large one.

Modern Bright Top Floor Luxury Apartment + Balcony
The apartment was very clean and well looked after. Every window had an amazing view to the Marina. It was actually better than the photos. Thanks Gavin.
