The property

The Boat House in Port Eynon offers a truly distinctive coastal escape, placing families and large groups right at the water’s edge with uninterrupted sea views.

Once South Gower’s lifeboat station, this historic building has been thoughtfully converted into a spacious seaside retreat, where its maritime character still shines through.

The fresh sea air, sweeping shoreline vistas, and dramatic scenery of the Gower Peninsula combine to create an unforgettable setting in Britain’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

A gentle stroll through the side garden sets the tone for your stay, where a sauna awaits after a bracing coastal walk and outdoor seating invites relaxed afternoons or sunset chats.

Inside, a generous hallway provides space for sandy shoes and coats, while a utility room handles the practicalities.

The main living area is the star attraction as it is vast, bright, and designed for sociable gatherings, with ample seating around a central woodburning stove, perfect for cooler evenings or lively post-beach tales.

Meals feel special around the long dining table, and the separate commercial-style kitchen makes catering for a crowd effortless, with multiple ovens, plenty of hob space, and everything needed to feed up to sixteen guests.

Downstairs showers and WCs add convenience for beach days.

Upstairs, the master bedroom boasts breathtaking sea views and an en-suite, while two bunk rooms and a downstairs double cater brilliantly for children or friends.

A large family room and a flexible twin/zip-link room provide options for mixed groups.

Outdoors, benches along the old sea wall offer a front-row seat to the tide, and the enclosed garden gives children and dogs a safe space to play.

With the beach on your doorstep, days fall into a natural rhythm of paddling, rock-pooling, and soaking up the coastal air.

Port Eynon itself exudes a friendly, laid-back charm, complete with a welcoming pub and local shops.

Beyond the village, the Gower Peninsula tempts with wild headlands, dramatic cliffs, and over fifty unspoilt beaches, from the iconic Three Cliffs Bay to the vast sands of Rhossili.

Nearby, Mumbles offers boutique shopping and Oystermouth Castle, while Swansea boasts the National Waterfront Museum and a vibrant marina.

The Boat House promises something truly special, a unique setting with some of the most captivating sea views you’ll ever wake up to.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £650.
