About this property
Boasting stunning views over Oystermouth Castle, this top-floor, duplex apartment is ideal for couples and small families seeking seaside bliss and cultural exploration. Situated in the cosmopolitan seaside village of Mumbles, this two-bedroom apartment exudes coastal cool with its sophisticated colour scheme and high-quality furnishings. With the shops, eateries and attractions of Mumbles on your doorstep and Swansea and the Gower Peninsula within easy reach, there’s plenty here for all ages and interests.
Inside, the flat unfolds over two well-appointed levels, featuring tasteful decorations and thoughtful touches throughout. The heart of the property is an open-plan living space that runs the depth of the flat. Bathed in light from a large bay window at the front of the building, the lounge offers the perfect backdrop to cosy evenings in with plush seating in soft, muted hues, a generous, TV, and even a desk should you need to do a little work or even sit and write a postcard. At the rear of this room, there’s a spacious and well-equipped kitchen/diner with an American-style fridge/freezer and a chic bench dining table. Upstairs, two king-size bedrooms whisper of a restful night’s sleep. Each features an en-suite bathroom and Smart TV, and one room has magnificent views over Oystermouth Castle. Downstairs, a shared patio and seating area invites a morning cuppa or evening tipple in the salty sea air.
Located on Swansea Bay, magical Mumbles is the gateway to the Gower Peninsula. It offers a world of adventures from lazy beach days and strolls along the pier, to independent boutiques and galleries, and the ruins of a 12th-century castle. It’s also developed a reputation as something of a foodie paradise, with an abundance of pubs, restaurants, delis and cafes to sample. From here, you can explore the city lights of Swansea (4.5 miles) or the beaches, walking trails, historical sites and wildlife of the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The pictures really don't do this apartment justice. Was a comfortable and relaxing place, very well done and with everything you need for a lovely stay. We would return.

This apartment is very well appointed and comfortable with all modern conveniences. The beds and showers are particularly good and it is very well situated in terms of access to shops, restaurants and the Mumbles Bay front . It is also easy to leave your car in the alloted space and walk or use public transport. A note should perhaps be inserted in the description to warn anyone with mobility problems that the external staircase is quite steep, especially when carrying luggage. Overall, though a very nice place to stay and Mumbles is a lovely place with great cafes, restaurants and shops plus easy access to the Gower beaches
