• "Just back from a week at The Headland."

  The weather wasn't kind as we had rain at some point every day. It meant having a comfortable base to chill really came into its own. The location is excellent with everything you could need within walking distance. From the main bedroom you can see the sea and the start of the local shops - an ice cream from Joe's is a must. There is a row of restaurants on the promenade, 5 minutes from the house. They are dog friendly. We ate at The Oysrer House, Croeso Lounge and Bistrot Pierre. Our personal favourite was the Croeso Lounge for lunch and dinner. I was disappointed to find the pier is closed but our dog loved the little beach there. It is also not possible to access the beach anywhere near the house as they are working on sea defences. There is a great deal of work and work men close to the house but as we were out all day it was not a problem. Just a shame the beach is out of bounds as all the beaches close by ban dogs until 30th September. I would recommend walking up to Oystermouth Castle where the volunteers are very welcoming. If you have a dog Mumbles Nature Reserve is also worth a visit. I was very impressed with the number and range of shops in Mumbles. I wish we had a flourishing High Street with so much to offer. The Headlands is a well appointed, comfortable base to explore the Gower and I would highly recommend it for couples, families and dogs!

• "Perfect location and accommodation from which the whole family (five adults) were able to celebrate our son’s graduation at Swansea University."

  The property was as described and met all our needs and the nearby restaurants and shops meant that everything was in walking distance.

• "Our family stayed at The Headlands in order to attend a special Birthday Party in Mumbles."

  Our party included a 2 year old toddler and a welll behaved dog. The Headlands is an absolutely beautiful house. It gives everything a family needs. Beautifully appointed, spacious, comfortable and relaxing. In addition its location is central to all facilities in the lovely village of Mumbles. Once you park the car, it really isn't needed until sadly the time comes to leave. We came for a family party and left feeling like we had a holiday. Thank you so much to the owners and their team.

• "Excellent property as described, great location."

  Parking instruction a little difficult to follow. Used to visit daughter in the University and represented excellent alternative to hotel. Walk to Langland is worth trying. Good shops including an M & S. Croeso Lounge very accommodating and good value - dog friendly also. Coffee at No 26 also worth a visit. Will definitely hope to return later in year.

• "The house is very comfortable and well equipped."

  It’s very conveniently located in the heart of Mumbles. I don’t actually think that the photographs fully do it justice. Mumbles has improved since we were last there and seems to be developing into a very nice small resort. A minor negative – the there two decent bathrooms, but you should be aware that they are not ensuite.

  We're delighted to hear that you found our house comfortable and well-equipped during your stay. Your positive feedback on the convenience of our location in the heart of Mumbles is greatly appreciated, and we're thrilled to hear that the house exceeded your expectations beyond what the photographs portrayed.

  The kitchen is particularly well equipped with high quality utensils and good cooking facilities. It is a great location, very close to the sea, every bedroom has a sea view, and a only a minute or so from local shops and restaurants. We had a very lovely week long stay and would be happy to return again.

• "Fantastic property, very well presented to a high standard."

  Very comfortable, loads of space, all the facilities and support you could need for a real “home from home”….plenty of cutlery and crockery, and just enough personal touches to the decor to give the house some personality. Extremely well located, in easy striking distance of Swansea and also the delights of the Gower generally. Good public transport, we found the buses very reliable, and plenty of walking routes also.

  Thank you so much for your kind words and positive feedback, we are so pleased that you had a lovely stay at the Headlands. We hope to see you again soon! Property Owner

• "We had a brilliant stay at the Headlands."

  The location is perfect and the house itself very comfortable and well equipped, with good quality bed linen and everything you need in the kitchen to cook properly. Very impressed that there was a blender, cafetiere and even a slow cooker. Good quality (Fairy) dishwasher capsules also provided and washing machine capsules too (although we did take our own Ariel). The house was very warm - I had to turn some radiators off - and there were two thermostats, which was a bit confusing! Swansea council are big on recycling - but the info folder includes details on what to do and when to put the bags out. Plenty of good restaurants, takeaways and pubs in the area and really handy for visits to the Gower. Only downside to the location is that there is a major project going on to preserve the promenade, but there is still room for walking - watch out for the cyclists who can get a bit stroppy if you or your dog accidentally stray into the cycle lane! We will definitely return for another visit when visiting our relatives again - highly recommend! :-)

  We always aim to provide a high quality stay and thank you so much for providing us with a perfect score! We hope to see you again soon! Property Owner

• "Arrived and house had lovely decorations for Christmas, the heating had been set at 27 degrees so was unbelievably hot , tried to reduce heat but unable to, contacted owner, who informed us they were on holiday themselves."

  They said they would contact plumber, but as we worked out ourselves it was just batteries in the heating display unit, so we replaced ourselves. The main bedroom double bed had a single quilt, which is not comfortable for 2 adults, didn’t contact owner as they had already told us they were on holiday themselves. A single quilt in a double cover is uncomfortable! The chest of draws were falling apart, a little attention to detail. Other than these things, we had a good holiday and Christmas, kitchen well equipped for cooking. Lovely table decoration left for us, thank you. We managed to do all our shopping without moving the car, which was great. I would book again because I’m sure these things would be put right.

  We always aim to deliver a great experience, and we are gutted the parts of your stay was not as expected. Thank you for taking the time to bring this to our attention. We have investigated the items raised over the Christmas period. I am so glad to hear that overall you enjoyed your stay with us, we hope to see you again soon! Property Owner

• "A lovely house, good facilities and space for 6 adults."

  If you have more than one car be prepared to walk a bit as parking is limited nearby. Wasn't a problem - but could be a five minute walk away. We loved being by the sea and promenade...lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Recommend Mum Bales for beer!

• "An amazing location and the property is beautiful."

  We had a fantastic week. The only feedback would be to give a better explanation of the rubbish / bin situation. As it was completely different to our city we were a little lost, this resulted in our rubbish being left by the roadside. (We hadn’t realised we needed the strong bags so only put out the plastic bags) Lovely area and beautiful home.

  Thank you so much for providing a perfect rating, this means the world to us! We have noted your comments and updated our welcome pack to provide further detail on the Bin / rubbish procedure. We hope this will mitigate any confusion for future guests. We hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

  The property is in a prime location for shops and restaurants and also the beach/coast path. The house is very well equipped and tastefully decorated with good quality items with a very comprehensive information folder which we found very useful. It was beautifully clean and fresh looking when we arrived with some thoughtful items in a welcome basket. If you don't know the Mumbles it's great for accessing the rest of the Gower, we loved the beaches ! We'd love to stay again !
