Nice to be able to come and go during the day. Good to have a kettle and drinks facilities. A bit dark and hot, but the weather was hot. Nice breakfast. Llangennith rather busier than expected. Very welcoming hosts.

Tara’s mini break 🐾
Perfect base for two night pet friendly break. Short drive to the beach & only few min walk to the local pub (very dog friendly). Our room was very spacious, nice comfy bed, large sofa, thoughtful touches such as the waffle dressing gowns were appreciated. Tea, coffee & biscuits with daily top ups if required. One of Dafydd’s hearty breakfast’s will set you up for the day. Would certainly recommend & look forward to a return visit soon.

Perfect stay, excellent breakfast
Delightful visit. The property is lovely, perfectly located in Llangennith and only 5 mins walk to the pub for food, or a longer walk over the hill to Llanmadoc. Great bed, beautiful bathroom. The breakfast was superb, with Dafydd (owner) pulling out all the stops for my vegan wife. Would love to return soon.

A lovely property in the village, walkable distance to the beach, along a small road giving great views into the open countryside. Hearty breakfast(s) are made to order, by the friendly hosts in the morning, (after putting order in via text the evening before) & we visited the local pub for our evening meals. Definitely a returning venue.

Comfortable stay
Stayed at Blas Gwyr for a wedding at local venue Fairy Hill. 10 minutes drive away and great location, very beautiful part of the world! Room was very pleasant but floors and blinds were very dusty and think it would benefit from a deep clean! Bed was super comfy but very few creature comforts…hooks to hang up rain jackets would be a great addition and we had to ask for hand soap (totally understand toiletries aren’t being provided at this time but would expect sanitiser/soap in the loo). The boiler is VERY noisy in the morning, a strange clicking and buzzing sound from 7am which wasn’t the most relaxing. 5pm check in and 10am check out with no flexibility. Also no wifi or signal in the room we stayed in. Breakfast was delicious!

Enjoyable stay
Room and services were great. Stayed in Eithin, although covid restrictions were in place this did not affect our stay. The room was really warm, luckly we brought a fan. Even with the skylight open we ciuldnt catch a breeze. Overall cleanliness was good but we did find some hairs in the corner of the room. The toilet seat was cracked and shower tends to make the whole bathroom wet, where a little screen may had stoped this. But this had no effect on our stay. Nice furnishings but the antique chair in our room had seen better days. Lovely breakfast and Daffyd was welcolming and chatty throughout.

Great rooms, top location, fabulous breakfast
Fabulous B&B in the heart of the glorious Gower Peninsula, walking distance from Rhosslil Bay. Room was really comfortable, huge bed and epic shower in the wet room. Dafydd is quite the host with many a tale to tell as he cooks breakfast. His Glamorgan sausages are special and the bacon thick, like gammon. In his words: ‘you don’t want bacon you can see London through’ - apparently it was his mum’s saying. The Kings Head serves a good pint of Gower ale and fairly decent pub grub. If you want a treat head to the Britannia in Llanmadoc. Thanks for a great long weekend.

Good host very knowledgable. Comfy room but missed WiFi which was only available in the courtyard. Also missed a dressing table area which could have been provided at the top of the stairs next to the bathroom. Full Welsh breakfast excellent but would have liked a fish alternative.

Chalet style B&B in nice rural village
Our stay provided us with a reasonable chalet and a good breakfast with a good pub in the village. Plenty of opportunities to walk and further places within reasonable distance to visit and explore. A 'get away from it all' experience.

Best location ever.
our experience from the start was awesome. we travelled to mumbles first stop, the town was busy with a run/cycle charity event. we then travelled to three cliff beach which involved a lovely walk and beautiful beach. by then it was time to check in at Blas Gwyr. we found it easily and had off road parking right by door. our host was helpful, happy, chatty gentleman. our location was ideal for long/short walks. we walked over hill to Rhoselli and worms head, the beach there has to be one of the best. the local pub in Llangennith is welcoming, food good. there is also the Brittania pub in Llanmadoc a few miles away, food first class. we have had the most amazing weather for end of march, but no matter what, the Gower is beautiful and I hope to return.

Winter break
We had three excellent nights at Blas Gwyr. Dafydd looked after us well and is a mine of useful information. The room we had (grug) had a lovely comfortable bed and a walk in wet room shower. Another boon given the time of year (February) was the under floor heating. The breakfast was excellent and the Welsh cakes particularly so. Blas Gwyr is about a mile from the fantastic Rhossili Beach, one of the finest beaches in the world.

Would definitely stay again! It was a lovely little escape near the gorgeous Rhossili bay which you can walk to to find amazing views of the worms head! The room was clean and had great facilities. You can tell the owner cares a lot about his business .

Village location, near to stunning beaches.
A great little find and the owner was good fun and made you very welcome. However If I had known it was so close to the road I Might not have booked this B and B or would have asked for the quieter room. I wrongly thought it was a farm location!

Nice hotel but very overpriced
Nice room but bathroom was up a flight of stairs in bedroom to fill kettle for tea and use of the toilet in the middle of night was not advisable without putting on light which could disturb partner.

Great Gower Getaway
Blas Gwyr is a lovely escape. The village is a quiet gem on the Gower, with sheep and ponies wandering around the streets. We were attending the wedding of our God son at Rhossili and decided to make it a two night stay. Rooms are arranged around a court yard so you have your own front door key with breakfast served in the dining room just a few metres away. Could not fault anything. For weddings it is ideal because when you arrive back in the early hours you don't need to disturb anyone else. Mikes Taxis also offer a great service.

Wonderfully remote and away from it all.
Solidly builtcootage rooms around a court yard. No phone signal! The owner is Ex-Welsh Rugby star and raconteur - to liven up breakfast, which offers a few welsh delicacies. Some great places to eat but you'll need to pay more Fairy Hill Restaurant with rooms - book 24hrs ahead for afternoon tea. Bitannia Inn in Llanmadoc - book the restaurant - last orders 8pm. Kings Head Inn in LLangennith (4*) is disappointing, and evening meals need to had early - if going late make sure its something they've had to cook fresh! Lovely walk to Rhossilli along the beach and the Hotel Bar food after the climb off the beach is good - we had a window seat with spectaular views too. A place to relax and have fun.

We stayed one night but would happily have stayed longer! Really lovely rooms with which felt cosy and homely but also luxurious. Very comfortable bed & great shower- weird maybe but a decent hotel shower is hard to come by! Service was brilliant, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast and the host Daffyd was welcoming & friendly The beach is very close and has miles of white sands- all you really need to clear the cobwebs!

Very nice stay in beautiful area. The host Daffyd was welcoming and accommodating. Food was excellent. A guest couple and Daffyd gave me a ride into Swansea , which was very helpful as I did not have a car. The only other option was the bus, which I think came thru maybe 3 times a day-or a taxi
