Crickton Farm Cottage Reviews

Trish
Fabulous cottage. Every detail had been thought of and covered. It exceeded our expectations and we loved staying there. Great spot for accessing different parts of the peninsula too.
Karen
1 week stay in Sept - the Gower is beautiful and as long as you want to go on lovely long walks and have pub meals out then this is the place for you. If you do plan to spend time in the cottage then take things to do as the hot tub and watching TV can quickly be exhausted. The cottage is in a livery yard which is a bit run down but inside the accoRead moremodation is perfectly adequate with enclosed garden at rear - shame about large shed looming over your view in the hot tub!

Beautiful area , lots to do locally, nice pub and nice food 5 min from cottage
Matthew
Lovely and quiet which was just what we wanted away from any fireworks as the dog hates them. Unfortunately the owners have decided against allowing dogs in the future though so wont be able to return to this place. The food in the village pub was fantastic. 15-20minutes max drive to everywhere on the Gower we wanted to visit. Some fantastic beache s to walk the dog. Hot tub a bonus afterwards. Would recommend

Excellent Holiday and very friendly host. Loved our stay and the hosts are very available if you need anything but also leave you to it so they do not intrude on your holiday. Brilliant for a walking holiday and very easy access to various walks. The hot tub in the evening was lovely, just sitting there watching the stars! Would definitely stay aga in.

Thoroughly enjoyed our week at Crickton Farm Cottage. The cottage was cosy and well-equipped for a week's stay. The toiletries were a nice touch! Well-situated to explore the Gower, it was lovely to come back to a dip in the hot tub. Owners are welcoming and always available for a bit of information. We loved the horses and dogs and would not hesit ate to recommend this cottage. Can recommend the food and ale at the "Welcome Inn", a mile down the road.

The cottage was in a great location, 10-15mins from most beaches. The owners were really helpful and great with communications and flexible with check in/out times. The hot tub was hot ready for use when we arrived, and the little extras like slippers very lovely touches. Great stay over all.
