Property code: OC-HH404

A romantic bolthole for two, this two-storey Gower-based cottage is close to a great range of trails, beaches, castles and pubs – perfect for you and your pooch. Charming and traditional, this delightful destination is relaxation at its finest, with a gorgeous enclosed patio and plenty of space to enjoy a glass or two.

Intimate and full of character, this property is lovingly decorated in soft tones, providing a relaxing atmosphere with everything you need for an escape to the Welsh coast. Original wooden beams, stone floor and exposed brick walls add charm to this very social open plan living/kitchen/diner. Lap up the bright and airy nature of the dining table by throwing open the doors while you dine on a romantic meal for two. Retire to the sofa for a cuddle with your loved one, while your furry friend finds their space in front of the flame-effect fire. Upstairs, sink into the king-size bed and wake up rejuvenated, coffee in hand and ready for a day of adventures in Gower.

Take the lead down along many idyllic walkways right from the doorstep of the cottage. Treat your faithful friend to a day of paddling at the golden beach of Whiteford, 2 miles from the property and backed by dunes to keep the pup occupied for hours. Stop by the National Trust owned, Whiteford Burrows Nature Reserve to seek out the enormous population of wintering wildfowl and waders. For those who love being immersed in history, Weobley Castle is just over 2 miles away, and sports an imposing watchtower and a dramatic location over the windswept coast of the Gower Peninsula. From here, you can also sniff out the Wales Coast Path, an 870-mile waymarked stretch showing off unbroken and rugged coastal views.

Ideal position for walking the Coast Path, birdwatching, and plant and butterfly spotting! Comfortable little cottage for 2, and maybe only 100 yds from the award winning Brittania Inn with delicious fresh Welsh food.

I requested a secure garden which should have explained it was only secure for small dogs only. There was not the direct walking access to the beach as advertised. The beach walk took two and a half hours not twenty minutes as advertised.
