9 friends having a relaxing time celebrating 50 yrs of knowing one another. The house was well equipped , the pool great and the weather fabulous. A wonderful time enjoyed by all.
Very nice cottage with all facilities. Excellent location in Oxwich near fabulous beaches (too many to name), lovely pubs (try the Brittania), plus lip smacking fish & chips + ice cream (Oxwich) There were slight problems with the shower (packed up & needed a rewire), and the pool (was slightly cold), plus only two bathrooms, so if the house is full some pressure there. But all-in-all we had a great time.
We had a pleasant week in the cottage. My grandchildren enjoyed the heated pool. I've given 3 stars for cleanliness. I would have given 5 if it wasn't for the fact that my granddaughter lost her teddy bear and we had to move sofas and beds to find it. We did find the teddy and a lot of detritus.
The cottage needs some redecoration and maintenance. The bathroom tap came off in my hand and the bath took ages to drain. Some of the coping stones around the edge of the pool need to be recemented into place.
