Property code: OC-HH472

Surrounded by beautiful countryside in North Gower, on the Gower Peninsula, sits this three-bedroom cottage. With views across salt marshes to the sea, it’s a peaceful holiday retreat and perfect for families wanting to immerse themselves in nature. Whiteford Beach is a gem of a beach and is 2.5 miles away. A vast stretch of sand, it’s the perfect spot to relax and great for children. Walkers can also explore the nearby salt marshes. From the property, head 2 miles to Cwm Ivy salt marsh and spend the day spotting otters, kingfishers, and wading birds. Alternatively, the more energetic can try the 8-mile hike from the property to Rhossili Bay, or for a more leisurely day out, visit Weobley Castle, 1 mile away.

The ground floor lounge is a cheerful and inviting space with whitewashed walls, wooden beams, and swathes of natural light. Unwind on the plump sofas with a film or settle back in the armchair with a book from the bookshelf. Additional comforts include a wood burner and TV. Wood-panelled flooring leads from the lounge to the spacious kitchen where a dining table seating six people takes centre stage. It’s a lovely space to enjoy a family meal and there’s even a convenient sofa and play area for the children. On sunny days, you can throw open the back doors and let the fresh air breeze in. From the ground floor, stairs lead to the first floor where the bedrooms are located. Two of the rooms feature king-size beds while the other room features a bunk bed. Comfort is key in the bedrooms, and they are all a good size and have artwork on the walls and countryside views. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room, and a family bathroom can be found on this floor too.

Back on ground level, the immediate area surrounding the property is paved, and this leads onto a huge garden where the children can run free while you laze on the lawn, mesmerised by the far-reaching countryside views. Afterwards, gather everyone together, light the BBQ and enjoy an al fresco meal at the garden table.

Beautiful cottage in a quiet location with big garden, scenic views and friendly neighbours. Lovely big space for us as a family of four with large living area, comfy beds and two bathrooms with powerful showers. We loved Orchard Cottage and will definitely come back. Easy to get to Llangennith and Rhossili beaches and pubs. Used the handy Esso serRead morevice station for supplies as well. Recommend the river walk to the Brittania Inn. Hide

The cottage is ideally located for the Gower and local beaches, friendly local pubs and restaurants, although a car is needed. The cottage itself is a perfect size for 6 adults, great party kitchen.

The cottage itself is beautiful and in a stunning although remote location. Huge kitchen and bedroom spaces, although a small, dark sitting room. Lovely neutral and calming colour scheme throughout the cottage with a sweet front lawn!

The cottage was exceptionally good, regarding attention to detail decorativally and furniture and fittings. However the en suite bathroom was poor in cleanliness and we spent 45 minutes on our first day removing spiders from every room.

Attractive property and grounds, your travel instructions were accurate and easily understood. The pubs you mentioned were very good. the various beauty spots were within easy reach, at this time of the year the roads were nice and quite. All in all, a very nice break for us.

Good size rooms all round especially the kitchen/diner and lounge. Large fridge freezer in the utility room was very useful. Good location for walking but pubs and shops a distance away.
