Great location, super clean cottage
The location couldn’t be better, just across from The Ship in Port Eynon but also very private. The cottage was absolutely spotless when we arrived, with some nice additional touches like milk in the fridge, some teabags, Welsh cakes, etc that we weren’t expecting.
We had a great week and plan to book this cottage again the next time we’re in Port Eynon.

Lovely cottage
The cottage was really nice, perfectly placed and spotless. The owners communication was excellent.
Port Eynon is very quiet and it makes an excellent break to recharge batteries and relax.
