Escape to the Lodge, a cozy 2-bedroom retreat. Nestled just 3 minutes off the M4, this tranquil getaway offers a spacious living room, a well-equipped kitchen & a dining room ideal for family meals or quiet evenings. The large garden invites you to relax, unwind, & enjoy the serene surroundings.  
  
Perfectly situated for exploring South Wales, the Lodge is 15 minutes from Aberavon Beach, 25 minutes from the picturesque Mumbles, 45 minutes from Rhossili Bay & Gower & 45-minute drive to Pen Y Fan.  
  
The space  
  
This charming 2-bedroom house, built in the 1850s, offers a delightful blend of 19th-century design and architecture with modern comforts.  
  
The spacious master bedroom features a super king size bed, while the second bedroom has a comfortable single bed. The living room includes a double sofa bed, perfect for extra guests. Additional double-airbed available for additional two guests. In total 7 guests can stay.

There’s also private parking available on the side of the property. This house combines historic charm with convenience, making it a unique and comfortable retreat.
