Can you beat the Gower Coast?
When it comes to spectacular bays and dramatic limestone cliffs, Gower’s scenery is certainly unbeatable. But Marie Curie, the wonderful UK Charity helping people get the best care possible right to the end, has an unmissable event coming up called Beat The Gower Coast inviting walkers to be part of its UK-wide Beat The Trails Campaign to raise money and awareness of Marie Curie.
On Saturday, 6th September, 2025 you can lace-up your walking boots and beat Gower’s wonderful Coast Path (part of the unique Wales Coast Path which hugs the entirety of Wales’ coastline). If you’re a seasoned walker you can tread a 24-mile section, or if you feel that’s a bit much, don’t despair as you are able to take just a 12-mile stretch.
Either way you’ll partake of some of the UK’s finest coastal scenery: the iconic tidal Island at Worm’s Head, Rhossili; vast sweeps of sandy beaches; Atlantic surf; perhaps even seals and porpoises. And by registering now (or donating if you don’t fancy the tramp) you’ll be contributing to helping people across the UK, receive the best end-of-life care.
You can walk solo, or with friends and family and you’ll be well looked after along the route There will be refreshments, expert guides, professional photos,, and even a medal and a glass of bubbly at the finish line! Now if that isn’t an incentive, we don’t know what is…
But how about when you’re done with all that physical activity, you come and make Bayview Oxwich your base for some well-earned r & r? Hunker down in one of our luxury holiday rental properties. We have a fabulous portfolio of contemporary cottages, exquisite apartments and even an exclusive retreat, all set in private landscaped grounds overlooking Oxwich Bay.
Why not use the Marie Curie Beat the Gower Coast walk as the catalyst you need to come and stay with us even if you don’t do the walk? Stay a weekend. Or stay longer. Make it a week? Perhaps two? September is such a special time to stay in our special place that’s why we’re filling fast. So be quick! If you need any more information about how we can best match the needs of your requirements, pleases call Wanda and the Team at Bayview who will be more than happy to help.
