Tucked into the village of Bishopston on the Gower Peninsula, this cottage is the kind of place where the pace slows the moment you arrive. The four-poster main bedroom sets a restful tone, while the rustic dining room, anchored by a farmhouse table, is made for unhurried evenings, with good food and drinks at the heart of it all. Step outside and you'll find a garden framed by ancient stone and mature trees, a natural spot for alfresco relaxation. Caswell Bay Beach and Mumbles Pier are both a short drive away.

About The Gower Peninsula
When it comes to Britain’s best beaches, the Gower takes some beating. Rhossilli’s mantlepiece must be sagging with all the gongs it's received over the years. And there are many more – equally lovely – sandy spots to while away your days or get your heart racing on this 19-mile long peninsula. This is a surfing hotspot, particularly the breaks at Llangennith and Langland, and a haven for family holidays....
