1 / 24Crickton Farm Cottage
Llanrhidian, Swansea
A semi detached farm cottage for two near Llanrhidian on Gower, with an enclosed garden, a private hot tub, views over Cefn Bryn and one dog welcome.
Cefn Bryn, the backbone of the Gower and home of King Arthur's Stone, is right on the doorstep of Crickton Farm Cottage, and the property has direct access onto it. Set in 60 acres, this dog friendly farm cottage takes two people and one dog near Llanrhidian, with panoramic views over the ridge and an enclosed garden at the rear.
Through the front door is a stylish open plan room where you cook, eat and unwind, and its patio doors give the dog the garden whenever it asks. A dining table waits for cards and plans for tomorrow, there is a TV for a film, and the owner has added all the thoughtful little extras.
Up the stairs the bedroom is spacious, with a king size bed, and the elegant bathroom looks out over the garden and beyond. The cottage sits on the edge of a courtyard with livery, a ménage and a stable yard, and behind it the enclosed garden holds patio seating and a private hot tub that looks across Cefn Bryn and the rolling countryside. The dog has the garden while you take a dip and savour the view.
The walking here is exceptional, and bridleways link Welshmoor Common and Llanrhidian Marsh to the beaches at Oxwich Bay and Three Cliffs Bay, so you and the dog can go for miles undisturbed by traffic. Wild ponies and birds make it a superb area for wildlife watching, and Weobley and Oxwich Castles, the Gower Heritage Centre and the city of Swansea are all there to visit.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Crickton Farm Cottage dog friendly?
Yes, Crickton Farm Cottage welcomes dogs, with space for one dog alongside two people. The rear garden is enclosed and set away from the busier courtyard, giving your dog a quiet area to settle, and you can be out onto open common in under a minute from the gate.
Are dogs allowed at Crickton Farm Cottage year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so there's nothing to suggest they aren't welcome throughout the year. It's always worth checking directly with the owner when you book, particularly if you're planning a visit around busy periods.
What should I know before visiting Crickton Farm Cottage with my dog?
The most important thing to be aware of is that the owner keeps working dogs on the yard, which sits right alongside the cottage. This setup suits some visiting dogs very well and others less so, so it's worth thinking honestly about how your dog tends to react around other dogs before booking.
