    This house was immaculate, it’s been designed amazingly and is the best place to stay in Swansea. The house is huge with 4 bedrooms, clearly recently renovated to a high standard. Lovely enclosed garden! Right on the beach, cross the road and your on the sand!! Amazing! Ideal for families, couples, work etc. I’m still amazed how there was zero sand in the house and the beach is right opposite. It was spotless! Really nice beds too!

    Everything. The house had everything you needed and felt like a home from home, but freshly decorated and wonderful interior design. The hosts were very accommodating and met all of our requests. The information provided regarding the locality and restaurant and cafe reservations was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful time and didn’t want to leave.

    We liked the open plan design and all of the wood panelling. The Shed is a snug place to relax after a day out exploring. Having use of the pool was really kind. Jayne and Brendan are really nice people - very welcoming and generous with their time. A lovely quiet location with easy walking distance of a good pub

    Felt so at home, the hosts kept in contact via text and were so friendly and gave us so many tips and information about the property and around the area! We were shocked how lovely we were spoilt by little surprises in the fridge and coffee area. Which made a massive touch to us as you never get to see that really, the bed was unreal to sleep in had such comfort. The design itself aswell as a lovely terrace! Definitely will be returning 🙏

    Lovely rooms, gorgeous Art Deco designs, all very clean and ship shape. Very comfy bed, very nice bathroom with great shower and free shampoo, soap and shower gel. Very attentive staff and fabulous breakfast. Everything from a variety of fresh fruits, cereals, cooked food, toast and delicious cakes. No problems with the car park next door - convenient and cheap. Also only a ten minute walk to the city centre. A lovely and reasonably priced hotel, would stay there again.

    That it was quiet, had lovely outside space and located next to a lovely park. The interior design was very fresh, modern and inviting. The furniture and layout was very well laid out for social distancing. The rooms were also well designed - section away from bed for making coffee, applying make up etc!
