Very basic room in lodge, not comparable with main building. eg small, bathroom blind broken, wire hangers, had to pass next door’s room window to enter, flimsy curtains so not dark for sleeping. Stayed in main building several times which is superb so this was disappointing.

Tucked away with a themed restaurant

The room was in a lodge at the rear of the house. It's was modern, stylishly decorated and well appointed. Good size bathroom had a problem with the drainage. The Monroe restaurant had a fixed two or three course menu (mushroom then salmon for me)and although the dishes were expertly presented as much as I wanted to like them I just didn't, I found them too bland for my taste. I hoped that breakfast would be better but the solid poached eggs & budget sausage just cemented my opinion. I would stay again but eat out.

I didnt know how truly cool a hotel i had booked until i got there. The parking was stupidly easy, the staff greeted me with a smile, the food at dinner was amazing. Along with breakfast the next day. The whole place is perfect for cute photos and the garden was ideal. i love how close it was to the city, but not part of it. I will be coming back to stay there. It was so well planned out with the staff so helpful and on time for everything. Love, love loved it

Hygiene needs improvement

Well managed friendly hotel. Good that they provide dedicated chalets in the grounds for guests with dogs, however allowing dogs in the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was very disappointing and unhygienic. A large mongrel was being fed toast from the table!

Amazing place just needs attention

Beautiful hotel with a very friendly landlady. Luxurious room. But the bed had a slope so that was a little uncomfortable and the breakfast was cold.

Night way

We stayed here the night before attending a wedding and what a great little find it was, we would definitely stay again. The room was really lovely and service at the hotel was great. The evening meal in the restaurant was stunning, attention to detail was second to none!

This hotel is a hidden Gem of the Gower, I got married here 2 years ago, Linda and the team were awesome then, went back for our 2 year anniversary and once again nothing was too much trouble for them, hotel has a real family feel to it and they make you feel so welcome. Great value for money, would recommend to anyone.

The hotel and room were clean. However, the bed was not that comfortable as it had a slight slope on each side which tended to roll you out. Breakfast was OK but the food was obviously cooked in advance and then heated up to be served. This didn’t make the food as enjoyable as it would have been had it been freshly cooked.
