Very nice but be aware dining issues in Swansea

Very nice place; check-in was easy, parking adjacent to our cottage. The only observation I would make, and it isn't about the accommodation, which was fine, is that it is very difficult to find anything to eat for dinner in Swansea. At least to get served/noticed and in a reasonable amount of time. Be forewarned. However, that said, I would recommend this accommodation.
