Lovely house in a great location with gorgeous walks right on the doorstep. The area is hilly, but it's worth it!

It was our first time in The Mumbles. The cottage was beautiful with lovely views of the bay and the weather was perfect. Would recommend it to anyone! I will certainly be visiting again in the future.
