Eastern Slade Barn - rustic, farm-stay bunkhouse on Gower's coastal paths

Eastern Slade Barn is a beautifully converted 200-year-old farmhouse, part of Eastern Slade Farm near Oxwich on the Gower Peninsula. Awarded 5-Star Visit Wales status, it is a comfortable and characterful bunkhouse sleeping up to 13 guests across four bedrooms (with extra space for infants and one accessible ground-floor room). Inside you'll find a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, cosy lounge with log burner, and multiple shower rooms including disabled access.

This is a base designed for groups, families and outdoor enthusiasts. With secure storage for bikes, surfboards and canoes, plus a fire-pit and outdoor seating, it is perfect after a day of adventure. Direct access leads to Slade Bay, the Wales Coast Path and bridleway networks, while Rhossili, Three Cliffs Bay and the Mumbles are just a short drive away. The Beynon family, who have farmed here for generations, also run Wales's oldest registered campsite, adding heritage and hospitality to your stay.

Eastern Slade Barn sits in the heart of the Gower Peninsula, Britain's first designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. From the farm you can step straight onto the Wales Coast Path, with routes leading to secluded Slade Bay and sweeping Oxwich Bay. Rolling farmland, rugged cliffs and sandy shores make it a paradise for walkers, cyclists and nature-lovers.

A short drive takes you to some of Wales's most celebrated coastal landmarks, including Rhossili Bay, Three Cliffs Bay and the bustling village of Mumbles. Wildlife enthusiasts can spot seabirds, seals and even dolphins, while families will love days out exploring castles, coves and Gower's famous beaches. Eastern Slade is perfectly placed for adventure and relaxation on the Welsh coast.
