At Hill House, we don’t just hand out the standard tourist leaflets and advertising pamphlets produced by the local authority and commercial enterprises. Unlike others, we have gone to the trouble of producing our own tourist information for guests staying at Hill House. This tourist information is contained in separate pages that we have categorised as follows;
Primarily outdoor activities, involving organised events, sports and leisure venues, etc.
Primarily indoor events, involving organised events, social activities, wedding venues, etc
Provide detailed information on local places of interest, history and people.,
Details of local shops, pubs, restaurants, tourist information, etc.
Anything that does not fit into the other four categories.
The information is designed to help you get the best out of your stay on the Gower Peninsula. We hope that you find this information informative, interesting, and helpful. Please let us know how we can improve these pages.
