This light-filled and spacious apartment, located just a short distance from an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in South Wales, makes a great family bolthole. Sleeping five across three bedrooms, and with plenty of room to bring your furry, four-legged friend, you’ll spend your nights relaxing beside the wood burner and planning your next coastal adventure.

The first-floor apartment is accessed via its own front door to ensure privacy; climb the steep steps before entering the airy lounge. Sink back and unwind on the comfortable sofa after a day exploring the bridleways, beaches and botanic gardens close by. It’s the perfect spot for enjoying a family film night, with your hound lazing at your feet. Dine in the sunny kitchen/diner or al fresco on the private enclosed terrace; although if, after a busy day of exploration, you desire a night off cooking, you’ll be delighted to find a pub within 150 metres of the apartment. When it’s time to retire for the night, make yourself at home in one of the three cosy and nautically-themed bedrooms; one double with en-suite shower, a further double, and a single room.

Explore the wild moors, rugged cliffs and sandy beaches of The Gower. Rhossili Bay (13.5 miles) is one of Britain’s best-loved beaches, while Llangennith (12 miles) is a surfers’ haven. Closer to home, splash in the water at Oxwich Bay (7.5 miles) and Three Cliffs Bay (4.5 miles). Head inland for some of Wales’ finest attractions, from the National Botanic Gardens (24.5 miles, look out for their dedicated ‘doggy days’) to Weobley and Oxwich castles (11 and 8 miles respectively). And don’t forget to venture the undisturbed bridleways surrounding Welshmoor Common (10 miles), where you’ll find plenty of opportunity for a game of fetch.

Good location with 2 pubs and a co-op within less than a minute walk. Quiet area apart from the flat below who knocks the walls with the slightest of noise. The stairs are about the steepest I've seen so if you struggle with stairs this cottage would not be suitable. Kitchen table suitable for 4 although property advertised for six

Lovely clean flat , good dcor, 3 decent sized bedrooms and all equipment we needed in the kitchen. Good location.Great having a parking space allocated and the coop next door. Recommend the Joiners arms for food just up the road. We walked from the flat to the coastal paths , but would be a bit of trek with small children.

Lovely place. Balcony really useful for a first floor flat, many a morning cuppa enjoyed in the sun. Iron and ironing board plus hairdryer helpful. Games, DVDs and a Wii - kept children entertained of an evening. Leaflets listing nearby places, restaurants and takeaways. Would definitely go back.

We used the cottage as a base for exploring the Gower. The kitchen was well stocked and the apartment has a spacious feel. The outside space is in a noisy coop yet we were shushed when we arrived and told to shut the door at conversation level noise at about half past 9. Having one toilet for everyone to share did make the mornings a slight challenRead morege at times but otherwise everything was fine. Hide

Amazing location! We loved our stay on the Gower - back where we married 10 years ago.

Rock House is situated in the heart of the village. It is a few doors from the village Coop and very close to the pubs. It has a dedicated parking spot. The flat is well laid out and comfortable and it has a fully equipped kitchen. It does have very steep stairs leading up to it which was fine for us but would be tricky for less mobile people.
