Out in the wilds of the Gower peninsula, this traditionally-built stone house makes for a grand country retreat. Walking trails snake across the land, and following fields and footpaths can see you at the local Llangennith pub in twenty minutes or perhaps stop at the general store for home baking and a hot coffee. Hopping in the car, you can be at Whiteford Beach Car Park in eight minutes for a glorious walk to the empty beaches of the Gower coast, while Swansea is just a forty-minute drive away.
At the home itself, you’re on a hill, giving you a fabulous panorama of fields and forest as far as the eye can see. Perhaps enjoy lunch at the picnic tables on the decking as you take in the view. Six acres of wildland surround the home, so there's plenty of space for kids to run around and you might encounter the resident sheep, keeping the grass cut.
If the wind gets too much, head inside to the cosy living room where a wooden-beamed ceiling retains an old farmhouse feel, especially with a fire crackling away in the wood-burner. It doesn’t matter if the weather turns when you’ve got a glass conservatory to enjoy the view from. A second sitting room adds a third option for the group to spread out, and this one is furnished with holiday reads if you want to unwind, analogue-style.
Home truths:
*At capacity, five guests will be in the annexe across the garden from the main house
*One of the bedrooms in the annexe has bunk beds and a single bed so may be a bit cramped for adults but perfect for kids
*In a remote location, having a car is recommended and there is plenty of private parking with this home
