Had a lovely evening and the bar staff really made us feel welcome and the room was also lovely only to be spoiled the next morning. We ordered breakfast in bed and when it came the beans were stuck together in a little bowel they had over cooked them. The bacon wasn't cooked properly and the bread was like rubber. Really bad quality food and very poorly cooked. When we complained the women at the desk said well we haven't had any complaints before and I've spoken to the chef and we won't charge you but just so you know we could still charge you if we wanted. Disgusting response after giving us food that was literally not edible and then instead of apologies they responded like this. Very disappointing considering we had such a nice evening. Unfortunately we won't be going back.
Nice find. Highly recommend as a base to explore the Gower. Staff are the best part about this hotel. Everyone we came into contact were lovely. Reasonably priced for accommodation and food. They made us a picnic to take out with us, menu filled out the night before, came in a cool bag with a picnic’s rug. We popped picnic into our rucksacks when we set off.
More of a guesthouse with a restaurant than a hotel, but I think they've done a great job with it. I think the trade off is a nicer room but with less privacy. Breakfast was good and recommended less choice than a modern hotel but fresher and tastier. Its a place I'd recommend but be mindful of the tradeoffs and don't take the mick.
Nice small hotel, nice polite and friendly hotel. Huge room with a bath on the middle of it. Nice food at the restaurant and drinks. Very affordable. Only comment is that they were not willing to add lavabred to a vegetarian breakfast because the chef didn't want to (I was told with those words). Then another member of my family asked for the same, same answer, but once he said it's not a valid reason, then the chef did it, but not chance of doing mine? Weird. Nice place overall.
We only had dinner at this hotel, but the food was excellent and great value. My partners lamb shank was delicious and my steak cooked to perfection.
Excellent food ,accomodation very good, service sometimes slow as small hotel and there may be no staff at reception .
Fantastic boutique hotel, nestled in the Bishopston Valley. Great food, great rooms, great staff. Highly recommend for a visit
Very pleased with my stay! Staff are friendly & helpful and food was very good, I will definitely stay again!

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
