About Rhossili 1 Coastguard Cottage

Rhossili 1 Coastguard Cottage is a former Station Officer’s house and was built in 1928. The cottage benefits from breath-taking views over the beach to Worms Head and south Gower. It feels exceptionally cosy inside against the log-burner, especially when a storm is brewing upon the horizon. 

Head out for a walk and discover some of the areas picturesque villages and free-roaming ponies. You’ll be blown away by the landscape, the UK's first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Head back to the cottage for sunset.
