The Farmer’s Arms

There are some internal steps and several low beams.
It may not be suitable for the elderly or those with mobility issues.

The surfaced forecourt area at the front provides ample off-road parking for a number of cars. At the rear there is a large garden with sitting areas for both the Main House and Annexe. The garden is about an acre, and is mainly lawn. Several years ago we converted part of the grass area into a wild flower garden which attracts an abundance of wildlife, including numerous species of bees and butterflies.

We live in a nearby village and manage the property ourselves. We do not use agents. In the unlikely event of any problems we are a 5 minute drive away.

Llanmadoc and the local area

The village has an excellent public house and restaurant, with a children’s play area and beer garden. When the village shop closed a few years ago, the community formed a co-operative which now runs the shop and post office. It is open daily, and sells essentials and local produce.

The unspoilt Broughton and Whiteford beaches are a 5 minute drive away and the Whiteford Burrows National Trust conservation area is a 5 minute walk. There are many public footpaths within easy walking distance of the Cottage, offering spectacular views.

As well as great walks, The Farmers Arms is ideally positioned for local activities such as windsurfing, horse riding, golf, fishing, cycling and abundant bird and wildlife.

The Gower Peninsula was designated as Britain’s first area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1950. The Gower Peninsula is to the west of the City of Swansea and is approximately 20 miles long and 6 miles across.  Gower has something for everyone – beautiful beaches, coastal walks, surfing, mountain biking and historic sites.
