Cosy Coastal Retreat | 3 min walk to beach | Perfect for families | Free parking
Newly renovated Caswell Bay Chalet is a comfortable self-catering holiday chalet located an easy three minute stroll from Caswell Bay beach and on the doorstep of the beautiful Gower coast. It is bright and modern and offers accommodation for four people in two bedrooms. The chalet is on Summercliffe Chalet Park, a small, quiet and well-maintained chalet park, just a five minute drive from the pretty village of Mumbles where you'll find an interesting and unique selection of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. Langland Bay Golf Club is adjacent to the chalet park and offers golfing with spectacular views. Swansea is 5 miles away and has all the amenities you'd expect in a town. The chalet is perfect for those seeking an easy beach holiday or great coastal walking. Caswell Beach is sandy with rock pools at low tide, offering lots of entertainment for the young, and young at heart. The coastal path, which starts at Caswell Beach will take you either around to Langland Bay, Rotherslade, Limeslade, Bracelet and the various other bays towards Mumbles or, in the other direction, further along the coast into the Gower Peninsula. The chalet is perfectly situated to explore south Wales and the Gower.

Clean and perfectly compact. Very comfortable and plenty of heater to keep us warm in the depths of December- highly recommended

Chalet had been newly updated and was nice and clean. The location was excellent for the beach and only a short drive to Mumbles.

Very clean chalet and wonderful communication with the owner. A stones throw from the local beach and nestled within a nature reserve. Had a lovely stay, thank you.

Thanks for your review Andrew. We're glad you had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. I did send clear details of the chalet's location in your welcome message ahead of your arrival but were glad you found it anyway! Thanks for booking with us.
The positives: quite clean, super cute bedrooms, well equipped kitchen and location very close to the beach. The negatives: tiny bathroom with the lowest water pressure in the shower I have ever experienced. Bedrooms are quite small, so there is barely room to move around the double bed.

Thanks for your review. We're glad you found the chalet well-equipped and enjoyed being so close to the beach.
It is indeed a compact space, in common with all the chalets on the park but, as you found, has everything for a very comfortable stay, with the bonus that you were able to enjoy a discounted rate. Regarding the shower pressure, we've had it tested and all is well, so must have been a glitch or perhaps used on the wrong setting.
Thank you for booking with us.
A lovely chalet situated in a peaceful area and very close to the beach. The chalet has everything you need for a holiday and is easy to keep clean.Thoroughly recommended.

Thanks for your five star review. We're really glad you had a great stay and enjoyed the chalet as well as the beautiful surroundings of Caswell Bay. You're right, it's just a few steps to the beach, which makes it a great base for an easy seaside holiday. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future.
Wonderful little chalet on an excellently maintained site.
A wonderful chalet on a very quiet well maintained - quiet site with a beautiful sandy cove, ideal for surfing (if I wasn’t 75 I would have a go.). Good site well maintained, with everything you need for your stay - Mumbles town centre about a mile and a half away. Cannot praise the site enough and everyone friendly. Would thoroughly recommend it for your stay - and for walkers the whole area is ideal.

Thanks for your 5* review Pauline. I'm glad you had a great stay at the chalet and enjoyed the beautiful bay as well as the chalet park - perhaps you can come back another time and have a go at the surfing!
Caswell Bay Beach Chalet was a lovely little property on a quiet holiday park in a leafy valley setting. Clean and tidy with modern fittings throughout. Superb location within a stone's throw of the beautiful Caswell Beach. Easy access to Langland and the rest of the Gower by car. There is a bus into Mumbles and Swansea if you don't have a car. Top communication with Margaret the host. Would certainly use again. Thank you.

Thanks for your 10/10 review Gareth - I'm glad you had a great stay and found the chalet clean and comfortable. Thanks for booking with us - we'd be happy to welcome you back!
The location of the chalet is amazing - a very short walk to the beach meant we could put on our wet suits and be surfing in minutes. Always hot water for a shower after. The living space is small for us and our teenage boys but we were out nearly all day. Brilliant also for walking on the coastal path to nearby beaches.

Thanks for your 5* review Caroline. It sounds as if you really made the most of the beach and coastal walks near the chalet.
You’re right - you can be surfing within a few minutes of leaving the chalet and then in a hot shower five minutes after coming off the beach. Bliss! Thanks for booking with us.
We had a great time here. So we'll located. Fab beach walks and beautiful woodlands as well. The heating was really good. It was very well equipped for self catering. Mumbles town only a very short distance away for supplies and a bit of urban life. Very practical tiled floor was very cold, so if you go in November like we did, take slippers!!
The property is ideally located with Caswell Beach just a five minute walk away. It is also a short drive into the Mumbles where we had a great meal and enjoyed the mini golf and pier. The property was clean and just right as a base for our days out. The only downside was the WiFi was very patchy and we didn't really have a phone signal in the property. Otherwise, an amazing stay!
