Ivy Self Catering Cottage

Ivy Cottages is a unique Port Eynon property — two cottages cleverly combined into one — making a spacious base for large families and groups on the southern Gower. Sleeping up to fourteen across seven bedrooms and just a short walk from the beautiful beach, it is perfect for a big seaside get-together in Britain’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
