Ship Farm Holiday Cottages, Rhossili, Glamorgan, The Gower Peninsula


Ship Farm Holiday Cottages – Coastal Retreats in Rhossili, Gower Peninsula

Ship Farm Holiday Cottages comprise two beautifully converted barn properties located on a working farm in the charming village of Rhossili, within Glamorgan’s Gower Peninsula. Perfectly positioned within walking distance of three stunning beaches — including Rhossili Bay, which has been voted the best beach in the UK — these cottages provide an ideal setting for a peaceful getaway surrounded by breathtaking coastal scenery.

Fferm Llong Cottage

Formerly a local inn, Fferm Llong Cottage has been lovingly converted to offer spacious, comfortable accommodation for up to five guests, with the option of a sixth using a fold-away bed.

The cottage features two bedrooms — one double and one triple with bunk beds and a single bed — making it ideal for families or small groups. The open-plan kitchen, dining area, and lounge create a warm and sociable living space. The fully equipped kitchen includes a washing machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave, electric fan oven, kettle, toaster, and coffee machine. The dining area features a wooden table and chairs set on natural stone flooring, while the lounge offers a cosy environment with comfortable seating, exposed beams, a TV, DVD player, and an electric log-effect fire, all enhanced by oil-fired central heating.

Both bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and drawers, with all bed linen provided. The spacious bathroom features a bath, separate shower cubicle, basin, toilet, and electric shaver point, with towels supplied for use within the cottage.

Outside, a private patio area with a table and chairs offers a peaceful spot for outdoor dining and relaxation, surrounded by the tranquil countryside setting.

The Old School

The Old School is a charming two-level cottage that sleeps 2 to 3 people, offering a blend of comfort and character. Upstairs, there is a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and drawers, while the sofa bed in the living room provides additional sleeping space if required. All bed linen is included for guests’ convenience.

The fully fitted kitchen/diner features natural stone flooring and includes a washing machine, fridge/freezer, microwave, electric oven and hob, kettle, toaster, and coffee machine. The lounge area provides a relaxing retreat, complete with a sofa bed, occasional furniture, TV, and CD/DVD player. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and a log burner, adding extra warmth and charm on cooler evenings.

The bathroom includes a shower cubicle and basin, while a separate downstairs toilet comes with an electric shaver point. Towels are provided for guests’ use, and a cot and high chair are available upon request, making The Old School a welcoming choice for couples or small families.

Exploring Rhossili & The Gower Peninsula

The cottages are ideally located just a 5–10 minute walk from the nearest beach, with a restaurant and licensed premises also within walking distance, and the nearest shop a short drive away.

The Gower Peninsula, designated as the UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is renowned for its dramatic coastline, offering a mix of wide sandy beaches, rugged limestone cliffs, and hidden coves. The southern and western coasts feature vast sandy stretches and striking cliffs, while the northern coast borders the tidal Loughor Estuary, home to nature reserves and abundant wildlife.

With their combination of comfort, character, and proximity to some of the most stunning landscapes in Wales, Ship Farm Holiday Cottages provide the perfect base for exploring the natural beauty and coastal charm of the Gower Peninsula.
