Welcome to Hill House.
Hill House is the “home from home” cottage for family holidays in the Gower peninsula, Swansea, or Mumbles. It provides comfortable and spacious self catering accommodation for the extended family. Our large and extensive garden is ideal for entertaining children. The surrounding landscape is rural with uninterrupted estuary views across open fields and salt marsh. You will find that the cottage provides a modern, comfortable, relaxing and tranquil retreat from the hurly-burly of everyday life.
During 2024 Hill House was closed for extensive renovations and refurbishments to improve the guest experience and enable it to gain a Welsh tourist board four star accommodation grading.
It is now equipped with new furniture and fixtures throughout, spacious fully fitted kitchen, luxury family bathroom with shower, log burner, separate TV (cinema) room and games room with an American style pool table. Outside there is a pergola covering a large deck with an eight seater luxury hot tub with separate seating. There is alfresco dining on the adjacent sun terrace with seating for eight and charcoal BBQ.

Apart from guests wanting the classic bucket and spade holiday or the secluded isolation of a remote location on one of the Gower peninsula’s many beaches, we also cater for guests requiring accommodation for alternative activities.
Llanrhidian
The village of Llanrhidian is located on the northern coast of the Gower peninsula, just off the B4295. It overlooking the Loughor estuary and Burry inlet and there are spectacular panoramic estuary views across the extensive salt marsh. Moreover, the centre of the village is a designated conservation area and, unlike most other Gower villages, it has very little through traffic.
The Gower Peninsula
The Gower peninsula (Welsh: Penrhyn Gŵyr) was designated as the United Kingdom’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in 1956. This longstanding AONB designation means that Gower’s splendid scenery has been protected from over development and commercialisation. It is renowned for its scenery, bays, beaches and coves.
Swansea Bay and Mumbles
Swansea is the gateway to the Gower peninsula and nestles on the eastern edge of Swansea Bay. The bay is a five-mile stretch of sand running between Swansea and Mumbles head. In fact, the world’s first commercial passenger railway ran between Swansea and Mumbles. The Mumbles railway has long since gone and has been replaced with an extensive promenade.
