The Gower peninsular is a haven, with miles of beaches, significant area of National Trust lands and is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Excellent facilities for families, walkers, bird watchers, nature lovers and water sports devotees. Port Eynon bay holds the coveted blue flag and with a lifeguard on duty from May to September makes it an ideal family beach. Access is easy with parking directly outside the Hotel. Their philosophy, as far as food is concerned, is one of good wholesome local ingredients attractively presented in quantities that allow you to fuel your activities on Gower. The food is of an exceptionally high standard, with vegetarian choices an integral part of the breakfast selection. Local free range eggs, fried or scrambled, are delicious. Sausages are made to a special recipe by local farmer/butcher Hugh Phillips and the bacon is specially thick cut and bursting with flavour. Also available to order are cockles and laver bread farmed by Selwyns on the North Gower Coast and kippers from the Black Mountain smokeries. Port Eynon has a long history. Well known as a fishing and smuggling haunt during the seventeenth century 22 Excise men were lodged in the village to deal with the smuggling and piracy rife on the Gower shores. Gower is no more
