Family-friendly vacation rentals in Swansea Bay

Fantastic place!! Booked for a girls birthday weekend. The host was brilliant. The accommodation was amazing, lots of space and spotlessly clean. Hot tub was a great addition. There are pubs, chip shop and coffee shop within minutes. The beach and coastal walks are on the door step! Highly recommend this place.

Had an absolutely amazing time staying at the Coach House. The place was so cozy! John and Liz were exceptional hosts, making us feel welcome on arrival and very friendly. During our visit we had a tour of the dairy farm by John and got to see lots of lovely calves!

We had a really lovely stay. Such a beautiful place with everything you need! Spotlessly clean and very comfortable

We had an excellent stay. All amenities were close by. The house was clean and everything we required was available. The hot tub was lovely. The walk to the beach was fine, but difficult if young kids were with you, or not reasonably fit. We would definitely stay again!

Georgina is an excellent host. Very good communication from her. Instructions to the property were very clear. Property is absolutely beautiful with all bedrooms having ensuite. Very spacious bedrooms, kitchen was equipped with everything you need to make it a perfect holiday. Hot tub was a show stopper for us. We were a group of 13 and the holiday was fantastic. We look forward to visit you again and again. Thank you Georgina

Firstly, our host was very responsive and friendly and even checked in after our first night to see if we needed anything! The bungalow was beautiful and homely and the location couldn’t have been much better with the town a 5 minute drive away and a lovely park 5 minutes in the opposite direction! The board games, blankets and tea and coffee were lovely extra touches that made it homely! The cinema room is great and so cosy. The only thing that didn’t meet our expectation was the hot tub because it’s in a pergola that needs some tlc and only one of the jets seemed to work! (Maybe it was just us not working it properly!) it also wasn’t very hot. But either way we loved our stay and it was only 15 minutes from zip world which is what we travelled for! Thanks for having us! :)

We had a large group of us, super house, super location. Host was very accommodating from start to finish. Highly recommend.

We had a fabulous stay at Deerview Lodge. In a stunning countryside location with views over the fields. It is peaceful, the hot tub is lovely. A very comfortable, well maintained and spotless property. The owner is friendly and helpful. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This was my family’s 2nd visit to Frankie’s property and like the first our stay was fantastic. The house really is amazing with loads of character. And is very spacious over the 3 floors. Very comfortable for larger numbers of guests. Frankie is very friendly. Responsive and approachable with any info you may require. As last year and easy 5 star review to give.

I stayed with Mike and Bert for two weeks while a house sale went through, I brought with me my high maintenance Bengal cat Kevin Bacon. During our stay Mike has gone out of his way to accommodate us, the accommodation is completely separate and lockable, I felt completely safe, I knew Kevin was secure and didn’t see any red flags. Mike is laid back and approachable, the perfect host. The bed is extremely comfortable and everything I have needed has been included with no extra costs or limitations. Bert is a very good boy and has been trained properly, he doesn’t go upstairs but he will bring you a shoe each time he sees you as a greeting, Bert was completely safe around Kevin when I took Kevin in the garden. There is easy parking at the accommodation and lots to do in the area, lots of walks, castles, stepping stones over rivers, sand dunes, beaches, horse riding and a decent selection of Pubs. If I ever end up homeless again I will be coming back! Thank you.

We had a lovely few days at the Barn, using is as a base to explore the valleys, and sights in Carmarthenshire. The Barn is lovely and cosy - and actually feels bigger than it looks on the pictures. We loved the wood burning stove, with fuel provided and fire made the first night, which was a real treat to use - and if you are visiting at the right time of year, be sure to look outside at the stars in the dead of night, because we were able to see so much. The place would be easy to miss if you didn’t know where you were going, but we had very clear instructions beforehand and found it no trouble. To anyone wondering about the internet - some reviews here mention WiFi, but as advertised, there is no WiFi - which we actually enjoyed. If you need internet, mobile data doesn’t really work inside the barn, but was available as soon as one stepped outside, which was fine for our satnav purposes. Ann also offered to help us access the internet if there was an issue, but this wasn’t needed.

Mum and I were so looking forward to our stay and The Shack was everything we could have wished for. Its location right on the coast path is just fabulous and so very peaceful, with only bird song for company. The cottage is very well appointed with everything you could need for a stay, it was spotless and the wood burner was the perfect place to chill out in front of on an evening. The garden is also the best spot to catch some sun and for al fresco dining! Communication with Helen was great, on hand if needed, approachable and prompt. Thanks Hels for your hospitality, thought and care taken with The Shack…. and for your lovely welcome. The Shack is the perfect place to escape to. We miss being there already.

The house is lovely and was in a handy place for our needs. It was warm when we arrived and the heating was programmed to keep us warm, though it was chilly at night. The communication in advance of our trip was excellent. Heather messaged me to clarify aspects of the property such as the low ceiling and steps to make sure it was suitable for one of our party. We had issues with bringing a large vehicle and Heather was able to offer solutions to solve our parking problems.

Hosted my sister’s hen do here and it was perfect! Had all the amenities we needed (is bigger than the photos make it seem) and Kate was very helpful providing flexible check in and out.

Great location for weekend at BPW. Secure garden and easy parking working great for cleaning and sorting out the bike. Comfy beds - would definitely come back.

Another great stay at Gorlech Cottage. The cottage with its secure garden and walking distance from The Brechfa Forest works brilliantly for myself and my three dogs and that is exactly why I keep on returning and will continue to return. Cara and Steve are the perfect hosts. Always responsive and helpful if necessary.

Our whole family absolutely loved staying here. Plenty of space for a family of 6. It's a great base for adventuring the many beautiful beaches. The children especially loved the swimming pool on site also bowling 🎳 and the castle 🏰 which are both only a 10 minute drive away. Thank you for a great family holiday 😊

Great, rustic and characterful property. Nice, comfortable place, great location, very authentic. Great host who was always quick to reply and very accommodating. Loads to do on site (Leisure facilities on site) and castles and beaches not too far away (Via a car)! Very well equipped kitchen with everything needed. Good WiFi, smart TV and good size rooms. Upstairs bedroom is open to living room. A spacious living room with ample parking Comfortable beds with good pillows. Highly recommend!

Diana was so helpful with everything, she helped with things to do in local area, which was a great help. The caravan was like a home from home and so peaceful by the sea. Beautifully place to go for a realxing experience.

We had a fantastic stay in the Brecon Beacons for the Easter holiday. Clare was a very welcoming host who provided easy to follow directions and a very hospitable welcome including fine cake and prosecco. The accommodation was exactly what we wanted with all the amenities described including gym and hot tub. The home is very well located for walking, it is even possible to walk to Pen y Fan directly from the house! A special thanks to her son-in-law T who was very helpful and enjoyable company!

The cottage is well looked after and as described in AirBnB. All basic necessary items were provided including silverware, cutlery, fridge, microwave/grill combo and oven/hob. The holiday village is serene, lending itself nicely for a nice rest after long days of exploring the area. The swimming pool is a very welcome plus for families with children, although the pool has no shallow area for kids younger than 7 or 8 years old. Overall highly recommended. We'll definitely consider coming back.

Had a relaxing couple of days at Sue's place with my 11 year old daughter, her best friend and her best friend's mum. We booked it for the pool and that didn't disappoint. The girls spent the best part of the first day in the pool. We were all a bit tired the next day and so didn't explore as much as we could have, but there are certainly some lovely destinations nearby to explore. On the way back home we stopped at Go Ape in Margam Park - highly recommended. As for the chalet - super clean, with everything you could need, and the beds were so comfy. The only downer was that, as people renting the chalet, we couldn't get the key to the games room. But the girls were able to get in to it on the last evening, when the owner of another chalet opened it up. Thank you Sue for a lovely short stay.
