Caswell to Langland
1.5 miles · 45 mins
An easy clifftop path linking the two beaches. Perfect for a morning out and back, with a coffee at the far end before you turn around.
Caswell Bay & the Gower
The first place in Britain to be called outstandingly beautiful.
The Gower Peninsula was designated the UK's first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1956. Sixty-eight years on, the cliffs, coves and clifftop paths are as quietly remarkable as ever. The apartment puts you within a five-minute walk of one of the best beaches.

Walks from the door
Three favourites you can start on your doorstep.
Caswell to Pwll Du
2 miles · 1 hour
Head west into the woods and out to a hidden pebble beach. Bring a sandwich and your boots; the descent is steep but worth it.
The woods above Caswell
1 mile · 30 mins
A gentle loop through bluebell woods that climb away from the bay. Quiet, sheltered, and good for warmer afternoons.
Nearby
More of the Gower than you can fit in a week.
Mumbles village
1 mile east
A working fishing village with an old pier, a string of cafes and restaurants, and Verdi's right at the water's edge.
Three Cliffs Bay
5 miles west
The most photographed beach in Wales. A long sandy crescent backed by limestone cliffs and a meandering river. A short hike from the carpark.
Worms Head, Rhossili
16 miles west
The far end of the Gower. A windswept headland that becomes a tidal island twice a day. One of the great walks of Wales.
Oystermouth Castle
1 mile east
A 12th-century Norman ruin sitting above Mumbles, with views back across Swansea Bay.
Where we eat
A short list, honestly recommended.
Joe's Ice Cream
An institution. Mumbles, since 1922.
Verdi's
Italian on the seafront. Sit outside if you can.
The Pilot Inn
Mumbles pub with a view of the bay.
Rotherslade Café
Cliff-top breakfasts above the next cove over. Walk to the end of Langland and there you will find Rotherslade bay.
