Bayview Oxwich must surely be one of the most south-after coastal holiday destinations in Oxwich, if not the Gower peninsula, south Wales. At Bayview Oxwich, our luxury, holiday rental properties all have not just a room with a view, but rooms with a view. Our guests can benefit from the special positioning of our three contemporary architect designed cottages and two exquisite and spacious apartments, set in private and elevated grounds overlooking the sandy sweep of Oxwich Bay yet just a 5-minute walk away from Bayview.

At Bayview Oxwich we’re proud to offer what must be the most sought-after luxury holiday rental property in the Gower peninsula, south Wales.

No wonder then that Little Haven, an exclusive retreat, set adjacent to Bayview Oxwich, in its own extensive, elevated private and landscaped grounds complete with heated swimming pool and hot tub is in constant demand.

We’re absolutely delighted here at Bayview Oxwich that one of our favourite Gower pubs has opened its doors again. The Dolphin Inn in Llanrhidian had been in the same family for decades and sadly had to close its doors, but since May 2024 it’s been under new management and we couldn’t be more pleased!

The Gower peninsula has long been acknowledged for its natural beauty, awarded the status of being the UK’s first-ever designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty back in 1956. Its unspoiled beaches, dramatic cliffs and wild open spaces were recognised as very special landscapes and have since been a magnet for visitors to share this unique place that we at Bayview Oxwich are proud to call home.

The television programme, Countryfile, broadcast on the BBC every Sunday evening, is a national treasure. For years, millions have tuned into watch and learn about the UK’s diverse landscape, and its environmental and farming issues. At Bayview, Oxwich, we’re avid viewers. We also enjoy its hugely interesting online presence.

The View at Rhossili is an aptly named café, bar and kitchen enjoying what must surely be one of the most iconic locations in the Gower peninsula if not the whole of the UK. This standout destination is situated at the top of the cliffs at Rhossili offering breath-taking views across the 3-mile sandy sweep of Atlantic coastline from the tidal island of Worm’s Head to Burry Holms in the distance, and on a clear day, to Pembrokeshire in the far distance.

At Bayview Oxwich we extend a big welcome (croeso mawr) not only to our visitors of the human kind, but also to their 4-legged friends. With a dog of our own (Luna our lazy Labradoodle) we well understand how important our pets are to family life, and that holidays wouldn’t be the same without a dog in tow.

Towards the end of the school summer holidays, our youngest daughter, Alice, informed us she had a project to do for school on foraging.

The logo is out in the world, the café has been fitted out, and the tables are going in. At Bayview Oxwich we’re so excited to share the news that the Gower Deli at Southgate, Pennard, will soon be open for business this August.

The Gower peninsula has it all when it comes to breath-taking scenery: miles of sandy beaches, dramatic limestone cliffs, and ancient castles and churches. No surprises then that it was designated the UK’s fist Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) back in 1956, nor that today it is becoming increasingly popular as a wedding venue. With its stunning and varied backdrops it is a picture-perfect destination for couples to make memories.

Many of the guests who make their base in our luxury holiday accommodation at Bayview Oxwich are walking enthusiasts. They tell us that Bayview Oxwich is a great base for exploring the Gower peninsula on foot, and a great base of guaranteed comfort to return to at the end of a day of foot-slog!

If you haven’t heard already, Bayview Oxwich is delighted to share the news that three Gower and Swansea restaurants have made it into the prestigious 2024 Michelin Guide. You might know that we continue to heap praise on and recommend our guests to our local Michelin Star restaurant, Beach House, here in Oxwich Bay, but we can now steer guests to The Shed at SA1 and Slice, two other wonderful favourite restaurants of ours, in Swansea, our city by the sea, which are included in the guide.
