  Firstly this cottage is not adequate for 6 people, we were cramped with just 4 adults. Access is by a steep and narrow staircase which the less mobile will find a challenge. The rooms are very small and poorly planned, the kitchen is so narrow when one person is washing dishes ( no dishwasher) the person drying has to stand behind and then kitchen cabinets cannot be opened. There is a general lack of space in the kitchen with no wall units supplied for food storage. Kitchen equipment is limited to exactly 6 of each meaning no serving plates if used to eat off. Only 3 white wine glasses, 3 red wine glasses and 6 tumblers. No sparkling wine flutes, short glasses and not even a corkscrew. There are only 4 dining chairs round table and not enough space for more meaning 6 people will need to eat in shifts. The seating is for 4 in each of two rooms so again 6 could not associate in one room at the same time.the arrangement of the seating also means the TVs cannot be watched by all in any sort of comfort. The general furniture was sparse with no curtains or blinds in either lounge. Beds were made up with heavyweight winter duvets and should be replaced with a lighter version for the summer season. The general bathroom sink is no more than a very small hand rinse measuring approx 6 inches by 12 inches and only an inch deep. It is near impossible to comfortably wet shave in this sink, even washing hands is a chore. Both showers were so slow to drain the water was lapping the top of the shower trays. One of our party actually removed the drain cover to clear the waste pipe to be faced with a foul smelling mass of hair and gunge, clearly these showers have never been serviced in the life of the building. In conclusion the property is not suitable for 6, is definitely under equipped and has been ill thought out with the customer in mind. Considering the cost of the property it is extremely poor value and cannot be recommended.

  The main thing you need to know when considering whether to stay at this property is, the photos of the view are absolutely real! It really is that good and even better in real life. However, there are lots of other good things - comfy sofa to watch that wonderful changing view, perfectly adequate kitchen and lots of nice touches like a drawer of 'bits you may need but didn't bring with you' like rubber bands, scissors, etc etc. Some board games and cards to play if it's too wet to go outside, including kiddies things, and a few jigsaws. Lots of choice with the tv. There is a bar to hang wet towels and clothes on in a window with a substantial pulley system - so useful to have. The sun streams through the large window and the room can easily get too warm, but there are some good quality heavy curtains that went a long way to help stop that. The steps down to the beach were well made up and no where near as many as I thought there would be from the description. The time we went (late October) the beach didn't actually dry enough to sit on and there were constant little streams running to the sea, so I'd suggest taking wellies for going for walks. I don't know what it is like in the summer months but I didn't want to take off my shoes to paddle through them!

  A well presented modern apartment, that had everything we needed, we were on the first floor with 4 adults 2 teens and a baby and had plenty of room to move around. The swimming pool is basic but met the needs of the children who enjoyed it daily splashing around with floats and water balls. The pool was under cover, this made up for the fact our weather wasn’t brilliant, and the use of the sea was limited. The location is good and is a few minutes drive or 15minute walk (it’s a very busy road with no pavements and in parts narrow) to the beach which has a couple of chip shops a small beach shop and smugglers restaurant. There is a small premier shop a few minutes up the road and further down the main road at the local garage a slightly bigger supermarket. There is Access to the campsite behind where you can use the laundrette, shop and pub/cafe also has a play area for the children. We were greeted who was extremely pleasant and helpful and was there to sort any issues (we didn’t have any). Overall this is great accommodation that is a perfect base for exploring the gower.

  My friends and I stayed at the gower suite over the weekend. We had an AMAZING weekend getaway! The suite was spotless and finished to a high spec as per the pictures. The beds were comfy, the outdoor heated pool was top-notch and the general setup great. The location was perfect, a little walk to the local social hub with a bar / pub / food / band / evening social which was good for us lot in our mid 20s. The suite manager and the owner were exceptional hosts, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks. We will definitely be back and can't recommend this place highly enough to anyone.

  We can thoroughly recommend this property which is fitted to a high standard. Both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms with wonderful waterfall showers. The lounge is comfortable with a wonderful aspect to Oystermouth Castle. The location is great - you can walk down to the Mumbles promenade and the local individual shops. Wonderful coffee shop, delicatessen and M&S Food Store all opposite. Having a parking space is fantastic as parking is very difficult in the village.
