Guests say
Linkside is a charming and traditional cottage in Gower, praised for its comfortable beds and cosy atmosphere. Its superb location offers easy access to Pobbles Bay and local walks, making it ideal for exploring. While the kitchen and dining furniture may need updating, the property's overall standard and relaxing environment have been appreciated by guests.
There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.
The cottage's location is consistently lauded for its proximity to beaches and local walks, indicating a high level of satisfaction among guests.
Guests find the beds very comfortable and the lounge cosy, although there are some concerns about the suitability of the spiral staircase for those with mobility issues.
The property is well-equipped and furnished to a high standard, but comments about the dated kitchen table and chairs suggest that some aspects of the facilities could be improved.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness, so this score cannot be determined.
About this property
Immerse yourselves in the natural beauty of the Gower Peninsula when you stay at this delightful cottage in Southgate. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, dog-friendly hideaway is 0.5 miles from Pennard and 8 miles from the bustling city of Swansea. It is also in an exceptional position for long walks across the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and trips to the beach.
Head inside to find accommodation that marries historic charm with modern comfort. Return from your exciting days out to relax in the welcoming lounge. Settle on the soft seating to chat about your day or watch a good film on the Smart TV; open the French doors on summer days to bring in a breeze. Wander through to the kitchen/diner to cater for your friends and family. This generous space has everything you need to help you prepare tasty meals with your own ingredients, plus a large table for happy holiday meals. There is also a utility space in the kitchen. Take a few steps up to the family shower room. Make your way up to the first floor via a winding, cottage-style staircase from the kitchen. Here, you will find a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. A super-king-size bedroom, which can also be made up as a twin by prior arrangement, is up a few more stairs. Soak up the Welsh sunshine in the cottage garden at this retreat. Have a cup of tea or a glass of wine out here after your trips out.
Pack your beach gear and head to Caswell Bay, 4 miles away, or Three Cliffs, 4.5 miles from the cottage. Venture 5 miles into Mumbles to potter in the independent shops, dine out and see the castle. The ruins of Pennard Castle are a 1-mile stroll from your base.
