location fabulous. No parking on site and no free parking availble so had to pay however this was pointed out in the info provided and it was a busy bank holiday weekend.
whole place is a bit tired - front steps/ garden entrance were not clean with broken gate dead plants/ weeds in pots/ tools lying around and overerall not inviting - shame as the morning sun in that spot was fabulous. Inside the place is a bit tired and could do with a freshen up.
Viewing platform was advertised and had an amazing view but we were informed it was noted to be in need of repair the day before we arrived. it is clear that it is unfit for purpose and in very poor state so this was not new hence the advert for this proprty is misleading. The host is missing a trick here as this would add such value to the place.

A lovely cosy house with a fantastic "look out" area with a view of Swansea Bay.
The beds are comfy and it's well equipped as well as being in a great location. There are some very interesting books in the cottage too. Great place!

It was a lovely cosy cottage, close to the water front and the town centre.

Great location with regard to local shops, pubs & restaurants. The beach was literally across the road (tide dependant).
So relaxing with some beautiful walks should you wish to do so.

Location and upper terrace with fantastic views of the bay
The beds seemed a bit on the short side for me (1.85m)

Good location very near the waterfront, lots of cafes and amenities nearby. Lots of parks nearby if you have children.
Hard to find a parking space.

We stayed here with 4 adults and 1 child (4 years old). The location is excellent and the correspondence with the owners was brilliant. The property was clean and had all the things you need for a self catering holiday. Would we stay again... Yes!
As there are steep steps outside and inside the property, I wouldn't recommend for people with mobility issues. However this is clearly advertised by the owners.

Very clean. we’ll equipped (especially considering how compact the cottage is). warm and cosy. Comfy beds. great view across the bay from the top bedroom.
Lack of free parking and no garden.

Perfect location on the seafront, a short walk from the high street. Very clean and comfortable. Good, powerful shower.
Loose stair carpet could do with a little maintenence.

What a beautiful cottage. We loved our stay here. It was near the shops and pubs so we walked everywhere with some beautiful walks up the road to the beach as well. The sunsets in the evening were just stunning too!
7.0
Clean, nice furnishings, pleasant helpful host.
Perfect spot for exploring the Gower.
Parking very difficult. Smaller than expected with little space in the kitchen for someone who wants to cook.
9.0
location is the best. very close to all the mumbles amenities, but not on the main road.
covid restrictions were in place so it required a few changes by the hosts I guess, but nothing that lessened our enjoyment of the property.
7.0
Great location, but parking wasn’t easy. Lovely inside, but a faint damp smell. No wi-fi is a pain.
Parking was difficult as the recommended parking at the George pub was almost always full.
9.0
Excellent little cottage right by the beach. All the logistics of check in and out were very straightforward. Cottage was very clean and well presented.
Stairs are narrow and steep but we knew this before booking. Bit nerve wracking with a very young child as there is no stairgate. Fine for older kids.
9.0
Lovely, homely feel. Beds were comfortable and the location was superb for us. The owners were really friendly and gave great instructions for check in and out. Really lovely little place!
Wouldn’t recommend for individuals who struggle with stairs as the steps to the front door and the terrace could be tricky.

Lovely homely place, nice decor and great location
Having to strip beds and sort out all recycling. No WiFi
