An excellent family house to stay, with great facilities and in a superb position. The hosts had provided everything we needed and more, and plenty of information about local attractions and walks, which was very useful. Loved it!

The Gables is in an excellent location, just a short walk to the wonderful Oxwich beach and all the amenities there. The house is a little dated and has been extended into the loft to provide additional accommodation. For our party of adults we didn't like the lack of privacy on the 2nd floor, but this could work for a family. The kitchen is welRead morel equipped and the dining areas in the house and outside on the compact patio are good. To the front of the house, once the gates are closed, this provides secure open access for children and dogs. The sitting room is quite small with only one 3-seater sofa and a selection of small chairs, most of which we found uncomfortable. At the time of year we visited and used the room, a large group of 8-10 might struggle to feel comfortable. The welcome pack was very much appreciated, thank you. Hide

We had the loveliest of weekends in "The Gables" celebrating my husbands 60th with extended family. The house was able to accommodate all of us easily and very comfortably. The top floor was very popular with the youngsters (with a gorgeous view to the sea), the bedrooms generous and very comfortable and the kitchen and lounge area perfect for all Read moreof us to meet and eat together. The location is very quiet, the lane is not busy at all. Nothing to disturb your sleep apart from the bird song in the morning. Easy parking for 3 cars at least. With our two dogs it was perfect to just walk a very short distance to the beautiful Oxwich bay beach. Our lovely host left us with all the information we needed, including maps and walking suggestions. As an extra welcome gesture a little hamper with food goodies was waiting for us (those eggs from your farm were huge, thank you!) It was also very well catered for for our two dogs with extra cages provided. We are very much looking forward to coming again. Hide

Our family stay, comprising adults and children, at the Gables was perfect both in the location and the excellent facilities provided, alongside the cleanliness. The hosts went out of their way to ensure everything was provided to ensure that they fully catered for all our needs, with their lovely welcoming personal touches being icing on the cakeRead more. Highly recommended Hide
