We're on the most southerly point of the Gower peninsula, facing an award winning beach with safe swimming and rock pools - ideal for wind and kite surfing when the weather is right. We're backed by a wooded headland for shady walks and beautiful spring and early summer flowers.

Latest Reviews
I had been recently to this hostel with small group when we were on tour. We had to stay there for one day and i was told before that it does not have accessible facilities required for my wife, but i decided to adjust for one day and help her out when required. Right from the entrance help was required as there were steps. We got four bed family room, but as it was not accessible, my wife required support to get on to bed and also it was not much spacious. Bathroom had shower with steps so there also i helped my wife to get into. Staff was friendly and tried their best in accommodating disabled person. Kindly avoid if you are a disabled person and did not have anyone to help out as it will not be possible to manage alone.
