It’s Gower time!
Our activity centre at Port Eynon provides fantastic accommodation for experiencing all that Gower has to offer, not to mention views that have to be seen to be believed. For over 40 years we have been providing activities, events and education and pride ourselves on the experiences and memories that we help to create. Whether its surfing, rock climbing, kayaking, mountain biking or just getting away to relax and enjoy the views we have something for everyone. We work with schools and colleges to provide residential week and half week programmes, as well as creating bespoke activity breaks for groups, families, and anyone that wants to experience our Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
