Description

Brooklands Cottage is a traditional Gower longhouse, set in an idyllic, quiet location and pet friendly, yet just a 5 minute walk from the village of Llanmadoc. The village boasts an 18th century gastro-pub 'The Britannia Inn' which was recently voted 'Best Pub in West Glamorgan'. The area has many beautiful coastal and rural walks from the cottage, with the North Gower beaches of Whiteford (and its' lighthouse) and Broughton reached via a pretty walk through Cwm Ivy woods. 

The village also has a bustling community shop which doubles as a cafe and Weobley Castle is approximately a 5-10 minutes drive away.

Reviews

A nice cottage and location great for exploring the Gower, which is beautiful

Mrs B,

We have recently returned from a week at Brooklands and would highly recommend it. The house is set in a peaceful valley with very pleasant views from the front garden, and isn’t overlooked. The house is spacious (having 2 sitting rooms is a bonus), very nicely furnished, well kitted out and comfortable. The water comes from a spring in the back garden and the house has a gorgeous upstairs bathroom and bath in which to enjoy wallowing in it! The area has a great community feel - a very short walk to the Britannia Inn (good food and nice garden with view of the estuary), and a bit further on is the community shop which has a cafe serving home made cakes etc. It is also possible to walk from the house through the Cwm Ivy nature reserve and onto the beach. Gower’s main beaches are a short drive away. My one caveat is that the front garden has a high-ish (4 foot or so) drop onto the drive - I would say therefore that in view of this small children/dogs may need to be supervised when in the front garden. Loved it here - a really great place to stay and I’d book it again in a heartbeat.

Ms A,

We had a lovely week in the cottage. As we had fewer guests than it caters for it felt very spacious, light and airy. The weather wasn't ideal for the barbeque so it wasn't used. The close proximity to the pub was very handy. We would happily go back again.

Mr F,

A beautiful property in a beautiful location. Close to the beach, great pub and coffee shop within walking distance. Spacious and well decorated. Great games room. Would love to come back!

Mrs R,

Lovely cottage, great location, good pubs and local shop but don’t forget your own washing up equipment.

Mr D,

A lovely location and attractive house.

Mr A,

Location

While places such as Mumbles, Langland, Oxwich and Port Eynon to the south of Gower are popular destinations, the hidden beauty of Gower can be found in the north of the peninsula.
