Worms Head, Rhossili
Rose Cottage and The Granary, Lunnon, Gower
Gower's locational map

Our two detached properties are situated in the peaceful hamlet of Lunnon near Parkmill. Rose Cottage is adjacent to The Granary and so there is the possibility that the two properties may be booked by friends or groups.

Due to our central location, we are ideally positioned for Gower’s beaches and country walks. Oxwich Bay can be reached by car in around 10-15 minutes. With the famous Three Cliffs Bay and Pennard Castle only being a short 25-minute walk away it is an ideal base for surfing, water sports and walking.
Swansea is just 9 miles away and can be easily accessed by car and there is a once-a-day bus service available through Lunnon village.
The nearest shop is Shepherds in Parkmill (10 minute walk) and the small village of Kittle which is a 10 minute car journey has a grocery shop and a bakery.

Rose Cottage is everything that you could hope for when you imagine a romantic, stone farmhouse. It is set on a working farm, in the hamlet of Lunnon, above Parkmill. Mentioned in the 1841 census as an Inn called "The Sovereign", I'm sure that the cottage could tell a few tales, but more recently it was the farmhouse of Sunnyside Farm. In the late 1990's the cottage was completely refurbished and upgraded to provide 4* accommodation.

The cottage sleeps 6 people in three bedrooms on the first floor; one double with ensuite shower room and two twin rooms. The twin rooms share the main bathroom, which has a large Victorian roll top cast iron bath, (that once collected rainwater for the farm’s livestock to drink, but has now been fully restored!) Both bath/shower rooms have electric shaver points. Bed linen is provided. Guests can choose whether to provide their own towels or hire them for a surcharge of £10. A cot and a highchair can be provided on request.

On the ground floor, there is a fully fitted farmhouse kitchen, complete with electric cooker, microwave, fridge freezer, kettle, toaster and cafetiere. Tea towels are provided, as is a rucksack, which is suitable for picnic use. A separate utility room offers a washing machine and laundry facilities and access to a third wc.

 

The dining room is simply, but effectively furnished with a table and chairs and ornamental fireplace that compliment the exposed beams and flagstone floor. The lounge has a colour television, video, selection of videotapes suitable for children, a hi-fi, a three-piece suite and an open log fire. If you wish to use the fire, logs will be provided.


The cottage has oil-fired central heating throughout and pets are welcome by arrangement with and at the discretion of the owners. A small fee will be charged per pet and owners must adhere to the conditions imposed due to the fact that the cottage is set on a working farm. The cottage has off-road parking and a secure, level garden.

The Granary is a recently renovated two storey barn conversion. The original barn dates back to the early 1800s and for many years corn grown in the surrounding fields would have been stored in the loft here at the farmstead of Great Lunnon Farm.

The Granary is located on a working beef cattle farm and is a very spacious property which is fully equipped to cater for six people.

A small drying cupboard leads from this room, ideal for drying wetsuits, coats and walking boots. At the end of the day supper can be laid on the large dining table at the further end of the room adjacent to the French doors leading out on to the south facing patio area.
