High standard of hygiene, even in drawers and cupboards, which are so often missed. Excellent shower pressures and a lovely deep bath! Equipment was generally good and a sharp set of knives are always a bonus. Beds and pillows super comfortable. We visit Oxwich at least twice a year (I am originally from Bishopston) and have always previously stayeRead mored in one of the various accommodation incarnations of the Oxwich Bay Hotel. We really wanted a change this year and were so pleased we did! Netherend is a far more affordable and comfortable option, particularly with our dogs and yet less than 5 minutes to the beach. Would definitely recommend this house and we would book again. Hide

Clean and cosy house in a great location close to Oxwich beach. The kitchen at Netherend was well-equipped with plenty of cupboard-space, and there were two dishwashers!

Netherend suited our needs for a family holiday very well (2 infants, their parents and 2 of their grandparents). It is very spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Located an ideal distance from the beach, short enough not to be a too much of a toil taking the beach kit backwards and forwards, whilst being beyond the sound of the occasional eveniRead moreng revellers. The garden is well maintained and the private terrace at the back opening out through french windows from the kitchen provides a specially good place to BBQ (although you'll need to provide your own BBQ kit).
