Guests say
Awel y Mor is a well-equipped and comfortable cottage in Mumbles, appreciated for its warmth and cosiness. Its proximity to beaches and local attractions, alongside its suitability for families and pets, makes it a desirable location. While most guests are satisfied, some concerns about cleanliness and maintenance have been noted.
Guests have had mixed experiences with cleanliness. While not all reviews mention it, one indicates disappointment with mould and general cleanliness, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for being close to the beach, hidden bays, restaurants, and within easy reach of the Gower's dog-friendly beaches, making it a great spot for exploration.
The majority of guests find the cottage comfortable, cosy, and suitable for families, indicating a high level of satisfaction in this area.
While the property is described as well-equipped and comfortable, specific references to equipment not working and the absence of a promised highchair suggest some issues with facilities and maintenance. However, there is not enough information to provide a comprehensive score.
A welcome gift was mentioned positively in one review, indicating a level of thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, this should be considered a pleasant bonus rather than an expectation.
About this property
Small families and couples will love this deceptively spacious cottage, which stands in a residential area just 1 mile from Mumbles'' seafront. Offering an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, an enclosed decked area and easy access to Bracelet Bay and Langland Bay, the dog-friendly cottage is perfect for active guests who are keen to explore the endless beaches and miles of rolling countryside that make up the Gower National Landscape.
Light, airy and with a welcoming ambience created by warm tones and contemporary soft furnishings, this single-storey cottage feels like home the moment guests open the door. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a comfortable setting to unwind, with sumptuous sofas, a compact kitchen and a dining table. Away from here is a shower room and two bedrooms - a spacious double and a bunk bedroom that''s not only perfect for youngsters but has patio doors leading to the decked area at the rear. This outside space is convenient for everything from morning coffees to nightcaps while reflecting on a day well spent.
The Gower National Landscape offers a range of attractions for all ages, from long country walks to coastal villages brimming with local fare. There is plenty to see and do within 5 miles: Mumbles (1 mile) is renowned for the vibrant seafront leading up to its Victorian pier, Bracelet Bay''s ruggedness will captivate youngsters while Langland Bay is perfect for sunbathing, strolls and a seaside meal. Swansea, a city home to numerous cultural attractions including the Dylan Thomas Centre, is just 4.5 miles from the cottage, while a day at Rhossili Bay (16.5 miles) is worth it for the journey through rolling countryside alone.

Mixed bag. Great location and loved being near the beach. Photos on website don't truly represent what we found in terms of cleanliness - we were quite disappointed when we arrived. Bathroom and bedroom quite mouldy and some equipment not working. If you ask for a highchair for your toddler don't expect to get one...

Beautifully presented property close to hidden bays and lovely restaurants with stunning views. Right on the edge of the Gower and within short car journeys to glorious, dog friendly beaches (3 Cliffs Bay, Oxwich and Rhossilli).
