Cottages in Gorseinon

Urban lets — not a Gower or Mumbles cottage.

What to know

Where to stay

Gorseinon is primarily a residential commuter town with few dedicated visitor hotels. The closest quality hotels are in Swansea city centre (20 minutes) or the Swansea Marriott near the bay. A handful of B&Bs and self-catering rentals exist in the town and surrounding villages. For longer stays, Gorseinon's position between Swansea and the Gower makes it a practical, cheaper base than the city.
