Halfstone House

A Luxury Cottage with Estuary Views near the Gower

Halfstone House is a stunning detached cottage in the countryside near Swansea, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views across the Gower and the Loughor estuary towards Llanelli. Meticulously restored and finished to a high standard, it sleeps up to eight across four bedrooms and is dog-friendly, with a woodburner, a beautiful garden sun room and an expansive deck made for soaking up the view. For families and groups who love the outdoors — walking, surfing, biking — with the beaches and coast path of the Gower Peninsula close by, it makes a wonderful base.

Light, Comfortable Living

The cottage has a comfortable living room with leather sofas, a Smart TV and a woodburner, and a separate dining room. The real showpiece, though, is a glorious garden sun room wrapped in windows, with armchairs, a dining table for the whole party and doors opening onto the deck — the perfect spot to take in those far-reaching views. The kitchen is well equipped with an electric cooker, an induction hob, a microwave and a fridge/freezer, with a separate utility room housing the washing machine. Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and fuel for the woodburner are all included.

Four Bedrooms

Upstairs are four bedrooms sleeping up to eight: three with king-size or double beds and one twin, all bright and tastefully furnished. There is a family bathroom with a bath and a separate shower upstairs, plus a handy ground-floor shower room — ideal after a day on the beach or the trails.

Deck, Garden and Views

Outside, the expansive timber decking has plenty of room for al fresco dining and lounging while you enjoy the panoramic countryside and estuary views. There is a back garden with flowers and plants, a double driveway and a garage offering secure storage for bikes, hiking and water-sports kit. There is private parking for two cars, and the property is no-smoking throughout.

The Gower, Llanelli and Swansea

Halfstone House is superbly placed for the Gower Peninsula, Britain’s first designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its network of coastal trails leads to clifftops, secluded coves and rolling countryside, while the nearby coast is a haven for surfing, kayaking and paddleboarding. The coast is within around three miles, and the city of Swansea — with its shops, restaurants, marina and maritime museum — is a short drive.

Exploring Further Afield

There is plenty more to discover. The famous Gower beaches at Rhossili, Oxwich and Three Cliffs Bay reward a day’s exploring, mountain bikers will find trails through wooded valleys, and across the estuary Llanelli offers the Wetland Centre and the Millennium Coastal Park. The Welsh capital, Cardiff, makes an easy day out too.
