King Arthur Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was in the building adjacent to the pub and my room faced the fields - what a view! I had a double room and it was very clean and spacious, although a small bit of feedback, I think the carpets could do with a clean soon but everything else was great. The receptionist checking me in was so friendly. The breakfast was so tasty, the bacon and sausage were thick and chunky, really good quality. The staff at breakfast were attentive and friendly and I loved how everything was locally sourced including the tea. It is in a very rural area, so it might not suit everyone, although for me it was perfect. It’s very well located and it’s about a 20 min drive to Rhossili Bay and the same amount of time to Port Eynon. I would definitely recommend staying there and I hope to visit again soon."

The Grand Hotel Swansea

"Really great experience for us the second time round for staying there. Had the deluxe room and it even came with the hot tub as a nice surprise for us both. Fab stay will return again before Christmas 2026 👍"
