PRICES AND AVAILABILITY


 
WAGTAILS COTTAGE

A cosy one-bedroom ground floor self-catering
Cottage Apartment at the far west tip of the magical Gower Peninsula 


Some of Wales's most beautiful coastal and rural walks are found from the front door. Sheep and Gower ponies roam the village, discover limestone valleys
past old mill ruins and navigate coastal cliffs and witness spectacular coastal birdlife.
Our 'walk-to' beaches are dog friendly all year around. Let them run into the waves. 
End the day at the Britannia Inn for a cold Pinot, a real ale or a bite to eat. 


Hosted by Heather and Dai Howells who live next door.  We also have two naughty Corgis who love a playmate so bring the dog(s) they are equally welcome.
