We had a lovely week in Gower Cottage. The property is well-equipped with all the space we needed. Great location to have your own space but within walking distance of the town, beach and local shops. Really pleased we knew about the tennis courts beforehand, so we brought our own rackets and balls. Would definitely recommend and would stay again iRead moref ever in the area. Hide
