The Shack- Quirky & Coastal ( nr cliff-top path)

The Shack - a renovated hundred year old chalet on a quiet lane close to Mumbles cricket club, 100 m away from the cliff top path that goes from Limeslade beach to Langland Bay. It is a lovely, beachy, quirky, coastal space that is perfect on the inside and work-in-progress on the outside!! A great base for Mumbles and The Gower. With a kingsize bed covered in base price we can also sleep two others - in the second bedroom -on a comfy pull-out daybed (an extra charge of £ 10 guest/night). The space The Shack is a chalet that was originally built post WW1 and , we think, extended in the 1950,s to include an indoor bathroom ( Thank Goodness!!) It has two bedrooms: Bedroom 1 houses a kingsize super-comfy bed for two guests- this is included in the base price and we can also accommodate 2 extra guests in bedroom 2- on a single day bed that converts to kingsize (at an additional charge of £10 per guest/per night....) House trained and well behaved dogs are welcome, we have a Pooch Policy available on request and we ask that dogs are booked in as extra guests ( £10 per pooch per night). The bathroom has a walk in shower and the kitchen is fully equipped , including a dishwasher. There are no clothes washing facilities within The Shack but we live next door for emergencies!! We are hands-on hosts ( gosh, that sounds a bit sinister, doesn't it?!!) - we are never away when we are hosting so we can be around ( next door) to ensure you have everything you could possibly need for a short stay. Anything you would like to ask- please do!! *****Due to the Shack having lots of freestanding furniture we can't accommodate children 5yrs and under. Guest access There is a dedicated parking space and there is a small garden area to the front where you could have a drink /BBQ- just be prepared to talk to the very friendly locals who walk up the lane !! There are two steps to access the front door- unfortunately there is no wheelchair access- due to the age and layout of the property... Other things to note ****bookings for Summer holidays have a five night minimum stay**** Plumbing: The Shack was originally built in 1919 and although modernised the plumbing is ...quirky....the water for the taps is heated through a very old copper tank and immersion heater...this means that it heats the water at a specific time and then the tank cools. As a result it is impractical to leave it on constantly so we tend to not leave it on so there is no hot water through the taps but there is a hot shower and dishwasher at all (URL HIDDEN)times so not quite the dark ages!!! It is strange and we can rejig the immersion switch so let us know if you think this will be an issue for you. Pet Charges: We request that pets are booked in as extra guests at a cost of£10 per pet per night. Airbnb only allows us to charge a one off weekly fee for pets which is a bit harsh on those only staying with us for a few nights so we do it this way which is a bit convoluted but easier on the pocket!!
