This was our first trip to The Gower Peninsula and the location of Driftwood Cottage couldnt have been more perfect with direct access to the coastal path for early morning and evening walks with our dog. All the best beaches were literally in the doorstep or a short drive away. Would highly recommend The Gower Deli and The Gower Inn for great foodRead more! The cottage itself felt like a high end boutique hotel with a fabulous kitchen, we are looking forward to staying again and thank you to the hosts for making us feel so welcome. Hide

This is an ideal stay for a couple and a couple with a dog! The cottage is beautifully presented and very well equipped. It has good wifi. The cottage sits behind the main house with views out onto an open field and is on a quiet road that overlooks the cliffs. There is direct access on to the Welsh Coastal Path with spectacular views, great waRead morelks and beaches. A short drive away are other great beaches such as Rhossili. There are cafe's, shops and a pub in Southgate which is an easy walk or a short drive. I plan to stay there again soon. Hide
