The Old Stable, which dates back 250 years, has recently been sympathetically converted to offer accommodation of the highest standard. The stable is attached to the main house which is adjacent to one of Gower's oldest fords. Set in three acres of private grounds, Barlands Cottage is a 250 year old house full of character and charm, and may be described as a quiet countryside retreat nestling between two Gower villages within 5 minutes walking. The glorious beaches and coastal walks of Gower being minutes away. Enjoy the day exploring the exceptionally beautiful Bishopston Valley, which has a fascinating history of smuggling, past industry and interesting geology. Follow the river from The Old Barn as it meanders through the valley to where it opens out onto Pwlldu Bay. Here you can enjoy a quiet swim and picnic on the unspoilt beach. At the end of the day you then have the convenience of choosing between three good pubs serving food, one of which - The Joiners Arms - has its own micro brewery producing award winning real ale. Within minutes walking distance from the cottage. You will not have even stepped into your car!
