Property code: OC-HH508

Pigsty Cottage, situated in the village of Scurlage on the stunning Gower Peninsula, is a 300-year-old traditional building that was originally a two-stall livery, but certainly does not live up (or down!) to its name. It's been converted to a cute little cottage for two and finished to a high standard and offers plenty of space for a couple and their pet. A well-fitted kitchen has been placed in the downstairs open plan area with large, bright front windows and very comfortable reclining sofa and armchair that'll provide a relaxing evening for you after exploring this wonderful area. Upstairs, you'll find an equally bright double bedroom with a full-length front window and skylights, complimented by an equally bright en-suite, and also a TV for your entertainment. Outside, you can enjoy sitting out in the sun with an afternoon tea on the patio, or make use of the large garden that your pet is bound to love, which is shared with the other two cottages on site - Cob Cottage and Granary Cottage.

Scurlage is a small village but has a shop for your convenience, and a café just up the road for you to fuel up at before heading out to explore the delights of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where there's a long list of breath-takingly beautiful beaches to discover with unspoilt views that will truly captivate you such as Oxwich Bay, Three Cliffs Bay and Rhossili. Some bays and coves are great for those looking for a bit of an adventure as access is only by walking down to them. You can also walk from bay to bay, or take a hike along Worm's Head. Less than 2 miles down the road from your accommodation, you'll get to the village of Port Eynon where there's a pub, a beach bar, fish and chip shop, a gin distillery and the closest beach to you which is a dog-friendly, blue flag sandy beach that's suitable for watersports. Other attractions that can be enjoyed in the Gower include Gower Heritage Centre, Periswood Archery and Falconry, and castles such as Pennard Castle and Weobley Castle.

The pigsty was great, very neat, tidy, clean and quite swish with all we needed to enjoy our stay. If back on the Gower peninsular would like to stay there again.

You had a Home from Home feeling, very comfortable. The Hostess was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The cottage is ideally placed to explore the Gower.
