from the fields behind the cottages. The nearest sandy beach is

minutes away and the Gower Peninsula with its host of world famous
sandy beaches is also easily accessible by car. The nearest Gower
beaches such as Caswell and Langland are about 25/30 minutes away
and the furthest point, Worms Head is a 45/50 minute drive. The
cottages are also in a great location for day trips to other stretches
of coastline such as Pembrokeshire Coast National Park to the
west (Tenby is less than an hour away) and the amazing rock formations
that make the Glamorgan Heritage Coast are about 45 minutes to
the east.

Out Guide and our Good Local
Pubs Guide. There is also comprehensive information in the

minute walk from your cottage (about a mile away). There are also
a number of pubs in the town of Pontardawe which is a 20 minute
walk.
What is there for children to do?
