Horton is an extremely pretty village, with the glorious Gower countryside and coastline on its doorstep. Underhill Cottage

enjoys a very special position, on the hillside

above the village, with spectacular views towards

Port Eynon Bay and the Bristol Channel. The

present owners have seen its conversion from a

tumble down cottage into the spacious house it

is today. It has been a much loved family home

for the past forty years.

The pleasant reception rooms are perfect for family relaxation and entertaining guests, however the wow factor

in each room is the spectacular outlook. It is always tempting to

settle in the lounge and watch the ever changing movement of

sky and sea: it is the perfect antidote to stress. It is fascinating to

watch a weather front moving in and the owners recall watching

the small tornadoes that whisk along the Bristol Channel, fiery

blood red sunsets, and the breathtaking beauty of moonlight

creating flickering silver rays, across breaking waves.

The kitchen has always been the daily hub of the house and the dining room is put to good use when the extended family arrives for lunch. The inner hallway makes an excellent study area, with the view, perhaps

making it difficult to concentrate on work.

The en suite bedroom on the ground floor is perfect for guests or an elderly relative, whilst the vista from the two first floor bedrooms and the light that floods into

the rooms, gives them a positive ambience. The garden is a place to sit and relish the joy of the surroundings. The garden is sheltered from wind and with a choice of glorious scenes to

choose from, there are seating areas dotted around the garden. You can choose the sunniest spot for an al fresco meal, or unwind in the basement sauna and then sit under the stars,

with a glass of wine. The location is perfect, only five minutes to the beach, with a host of fantastic walks along the coast. Vibrant Swansea is approximately a thirty minute drive, giving

you the best of village and city life. The owners have loved the all year tranquillity of the Underhill Cottage and Horton. It will be greatly missed.
