If you want a relaxing few days away from the hustle and bustle, this location is perfect. You can cycle, walk or hire a canoe to venture out onto the fierce rapids or just take the boat across the river and settle down in the Saracens Head Pub with a local brewed beer and a bag of crisps. Beautiful scenery and forest walks, great pubs nearby and lots of peace and quiet. Check the website for availability.

Penrice Castle Cottages is a collection of holiday home rentals in Gower, Swansea, South Wales. My…read morehousemate and I were down there just a few weeks ago for a wedding at a nearby hotel and decided to rent a local cottage rather than stay at a hotel. We rented Martha's Cottage on the Penrice Estate. It was absolutely lovely- picture attached of the outside but the inside was quirky with a lovely country feel. It was cosy and warm and we loved the quietness of this place (it is set back from the road). However, what was best about our trip is that if you rent one of the Castle Cottages, you get access to walk through the incredible Penrice Estate- complete with derelict castle, acres and acres of beautiful scenery, and a very impressive listed building worthy of Pride and Prejudice. It is completely gorgeous, and you can look down on the sea too. Nearby is Oxwich, where you can walk to from Penrice, down through the estate and then down over the dunes to the beach. Just stunning. We had a very easy booking experience with Penrice Castle Cottages, they offered us a weekend rate rather than a full week's rental. They were also very helpful afterwards when I found I had accidentally left something at the cottage afterwards. I would highly recommend- this area is just outstanding in terms of landscape, and the cottage (complete with log fire) was just up my street. I'd like to come back sometime to this magical place.

The pub has recently been taken over by a new landlord and lady, Cef and Sarah. The atmosphere is…read moregreat, beer fantastic and the food is all home made, and made from scratch for you. The breakfast is excellant, we had 2 sausage, 2 bacon, black pud, beans, mushrooms and tomato, toast and a mug of tea for a fiver - and whats more the meat and veg are all from local businesses so the quality is brilliant. I would recommend it to anyone seriously wanting a nice pint and a chat

Bryngwenyn Farm is just as steeps writes and in a beautiful spot, I would definitely recommend its' location for a peaceful getaway with its' holiday cottages and b and b with the great advantage of the fabulous mainly organic farmshop with wonderful proper organic and freerange eggs(delicious for breakfast today). As well as doing a good shop there, we bought the aforementioned sausages, pork etc some wonderful organic vegetables, we had delicious home made cake and tea so definitely a step up from the usual supermarket venture.

Bryngwenyn Farm is many things in one. The part we go for is the Farm Shop. We were pointed here by…read moreout neighbours and decided to visit one Sunday afternoon. It is a bit off the beaten track so we had never seen it before, but we were pleasantly surprised. The shop itself is tiny, but still seems to hold plenty of goodies. There is a freezer full of meat (including the best sausages we have ever tasted), a fridge packed with cheese, yoghurt, milk and more, another freezer with bread, icecream and frozen fruits, a fruit and vegetable section and then shelves full of everything you can think of. They even stock Ecover products so if you are looking to avoid the supermarket, this is the place to go. Their home-milled flour is well worth a try and makes delicious bread. The shop is also a cafe and is laid out with a few tables. If you are looking for something different, they sell Alpaca wool gloves and hats! The rest of the farm includes holiday cottages and animals to see as well as the flour mill. I am tempted to sign up for one of the bread making courses. It is in an idyllic spot too with gorgeous views and a posse of sheep to greet you as you make your way down the track!

Splashland is an indoor swimming pool situated inside the Trecco Bay holiday park…read more This is a fun pool, with most of the features mainly suiting children and families. It is very busy during the school holidays and summer. The pool operates on a timed slot basis, and you are given a coloured band which indicates the start and end time of your session. The pool has a decent waterslide, a children's pirate ship play area and a separate toddlers area. There is a jacuzzi type bubble area where you can sit/lie which is joined to the main pool. There are two swimming lanes - sometimes roped off and sometimes not - which are fine for some relaxing swimming - but due to the size and temparature (Very warm) of the pool they are not really suited to serious swimmers. You can sit and watch the swimmers in a seated area, and there is a good size changing village, including family size changing rooms. There are aqua aerobic classes available during the week.

Our house, The Old Hop Kiln was the beautiful cottage with the round tower at the end. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A nice kitchen and sitting room too. The fridge was great, with lots of room. The cooker did the job great for all the cooking down. There was plenty of quality cooking gear too. We spent a lot of time in the Saddlestones house as this house had the biggest kitchen and lounge. It was very nice too. The view was fabulous, as you can see from the pictures I added. The ducks milling about the pond was a real hghlight. Everyone commented on the same picture when I posted it to Facebook. I didn't really meet the people who run the show, but my partner who organised the whole stay said it was great dealing with them. I texted their land-line once to see if they could restart the WiFi router when they got home and they did. The free WiFI is such a bonus too. The value was the best part I think. For three nights for me and my partner it cost 120 GBP. That's 20 GBP each per night. OK, it's early in the season, but still fantastic in my opinion. Thank you Whitewells Farm Cottages.
