5* Self Catering Penthouse, Llanelli, Beach, Sea Views, Walks, Golf, Cycle.

Gower View Penthouse is our family holiday home, enjoyed and loved by 3 generations. It is graded 5* by Visit Wales and we visit on a regular basis to ensure this standard is maintained.

It is a modern duplex apartment located on the beachfront in Llanelli in the Millennium Coastal Park where more than 1500 acres have been given a spectacular face-lift to provide 22 km of beautifully restored coastline with stunning views of the Gower Peninsula, traffic-free cycling and exhilarating walks.

This is a brilliant location for family holidays, cyclists, walkers, golfers, horse racing, bird watching and garden enthusiasts.

The penthouse sleeps 6 people and has a light, spacious open plan kitchen and living area with full-length glass balconies on both sides. The spacious master bedroom has a king-sized bed, a balcony and an en suite. Both have spectacular views of the sandy beach and the sea beyond, we feel completely relaxed from the moment we arrive.

The stunning sunsets viewed from the apartment are to die for! The penthouse is accessed from the third floor of the building, there is no lift from the ground floor to the front door of the penthouse.

The penthouse has 2 smart TVs and free BT Infinity Wifi. It is tastefully furnished and has porcelain tiled floors throughout. Both the second and third bedrooms have 2 single beds.

It is a brilliant location for family holidays with a choice of child friendly beaches. It is a wildlife haven and provides a wide range of activities, places to visit and sports particularly golf, with 17 courses less than 30 miles away. Ffos Las racecourse is a 20 minute drive from the penthouse. There are several excellent restaurants nearby. The penthouse is easily accessed from the M4 motorway.

Access to Millennium coastal path
We loved the quick access to the Millennium coastal path for trail running. There are other nice hikes in the area as well. We enjoyed the wetlands. The penthouse had everything needed and provided a wonderful respite. We also appreciated walking access to shops, theaters, and restaurants.

Quality apartment with stunning sea views
The property was perfect for exploring the local area and further afield in South Wales. We really enjoyed the trips over to the Gower and Brecon Beacons National Park, but there are so many excellent places nearby. It is really nice to return to a clean comfortable and very well equipment penthouse apartment after an active day and admire the views from the panoramic windows over the coastline.

Stunning!
What an amazing place! The pictures don't do it any justice! Its so airy and bright and the views are breath taking! The Penthouse was spotless when we went in. Everything you may need was available, the beds were all so comfortable and it was amazing waking up to the view of the sea My toddlers especially loved the balcony, couldn't keep them away from it. The owner was great and kept me well informed through out and replies quickly to messages. My only criticism would be that the bedroom balcony is in need of some TLC but that didn't take away from the beauty of the views and how gorgeous the entire penthouse is. We were lucky enough to get some sunshine and dry weather so that was great. We really loved it and would definitely recommend it

What a view
Absolutely an amazing view over the bay. Very well furnished top floor apartment with everything you need and more. Very quiet area , shops near by and plenty to see and do around the area. Only down side is there is no lift and many flights of stairs to lug up luggage. Not a huge issue if your young and fit, but just be mindful if your not. Other than that a faultless property.

Fabulous views and location
The apartment is well furnished and equipped, with everything working. The views over the bay are fantastic and can be enjoyed from both lounge and main bedroom - or from the balconies. We were very lucky with fine weather and ate our dinner every night on the balcony. The surrounding area is great for walking and swimming, and also within easy reach of the National Botanical Garden. The owner has provided lots of leaflets/information on local attractions, and gave clear directions on check in/check out process.

Amazing property
The description of this property really did not do it justice. The light and views were amazing; so much do that my 17 year old barely left the balcony when we were in snapping pictures of the sunset and moonlight. It was spacious and comfortable with everything that you might need. Shopping, countryside, beaches, walking, and places to eat all at hand. It was super relaxing and I am hoping to plan another visit

Wales Retreat
This was a great condo! We enjoyed the area very much. Sally was wonderful in all of her touring suggestions and answering any questions we may have had about the condo and the area. Would highly recommend it! It has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. Wonderful views from the master bedroom and living room. Easy drives to many historic sites. A restaurant within walking distance of the condo. A super Tesco grocery store within a 15 minute drive. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Believe what you read
This is the first time that I've stayed in a property where the unit is exactly as it was described. No issues with anything because we had expected and received what we were promised. The unit has two floors which gave you the room to move around and stretch out. You will be pleased if you rent this unit for your next vacation stay.

Family week away in Llanelli
We have just returned from a lovely stay in the apartment. We were very impressed with everything, lovely furnishings, linen, towels, everything we could have wished for. The rooms were larger than we were expecting, plenty of room for 6 adults and a baby. The views were wonderful, although we could have done with a little more sunshine! Plenty to do in the area, with good restaurants and shops etc within easy reach. We found the directions that Sally sent to us before we arrived to be very clear and easy to follow. We found the whole booking experience to be very easy and Sally was always happy to answer any questions. We hope to return for another stay in the future and would be happy to recommend the apartments to friends and family.

Excellent base for the Gower and South Wales
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was superbly located for what we wanted to achieve in South Wales. The owners have thought of everything... It is nice to go to a self catering apartment and not have to worry about the small things - they provided tin foil, bin bags, dishwasher tabs, as well as tea/ coffee and toilet rolls. We only had to worry about the food. The balcony views are beautiful and the spec of the apartment is high. You will however need to be physically fit as the flat is on the 3rd floor and there is no lift... So getting cases up there is a task.. Coming down is fine! There is lots of information provided for the local area and plenty of games, books and DVDs for the kids... They need more Playstation games apparently according to my 15 yo son!! In short we loved it and would recommend this place to anyone with a desire to explore South Wales... Don't rely on the beach outside though, there are far better ones on the Gower or at Pembrey Country Park nearby.. Excellent.

Great views and excellent base
Enjoyed our stay very much, the views, the apartment and the location which was near to everywhere we wanted to go. The stairs were hard work because we live in a bungalow but they weren’t too much of a problem. The apartment had everything we needed for a very enjoyable week.
