We were a party of 2 adults, 4 children (aged 6-12) and 2 dogs. This was the best equipped cottage we have stayed in so far. There are multiple private fields in which to exercise your dog and local footpaths on the doorstep. You can drive into the local town of Pontardowe in 5 minutes for Tesco, Lidl, a pub etc. We had days out at the beaches in the Gower (under an hour’s drive) and also saw waterfalls on walks in the Brecon Beacons.
