Great location in heart of village with access (hilly in parts) to all amenities and the lovely esplanade. Secluded, well-planted garden adds a touch of the exotic and the overlooking balcony is a real suntrap. Inside, the cottage caters for all needs, with the kitchen especially good.

Lovely and spacious cottage in an excellent location, close to all amenities. Very well equipped with plenty of instructions on how appliances work, etc. We found a parking place further up the lane which was fine. A great spot for exploring The Mumbles, Swansea and surrounding places of interest.

The property is extremely well located in Mumbles. Perfect for walking to the centre for the shops, restaurants, Cafes et cetera and also great for walking to the nearby beaches. It also has parking which is unusual in the Mumbles as well as a safe enclosed garden for a dog. We were very comfortable at the property and appreciated having two bathroRead moreoms. Although the property is very centrally located, it is also extremely quiet and has views of the castle as well as partial views of the seafront from the upstairs bedroom which was lovely. Hide

Parking is the major issue, with very narrow road access and parking of neighbours cars. The step down floor to the rear bedroom is dangerous, the floors upstairs are creaky and the door handles are noisy which makes it difficult when getting up in the night without disturbing friends. Also, the bathroom needs a proper shower over the bath
