Welcome to Jacob Cottage

Stay among the trees. Wake by the sea.

A design-led woodland retreat in the heart of Gower, just a 20 min walk from the award-winning sands of Three Cliffs Bay.

“Jacob Cottage is pure magic! Beautifully designed, peaceful and perfectly located for exploring Gower.”

— K. Benhall

Outdoor wooden patio with a white tablecloth-covered table set for a meal, surrounded by wooden chairs with plaid blankets. A vase with flowers and a wooden cutting board with food are on the table. The patio is enclosed by wooden walls with shelves holding bottles and decorative items, under a corrugated metal roof with string lights.

The Location

Tucked away down a quiet private lane in the woods of Parkmill, Jacob Cottage is a peaceful hideaway made for slowing down.

Wrapped by trees and moments from one of Britain’s most celebrated beaches, our black timber cabin combines simple luxury, thoughtful design and the wild beauty of Gower.

Whether you’re coming for coastal walks, long beach days, surf, good food or fireside evenings, Jacob Cottage is a place to truly switch off.

Living room with white walls, black tile floor, a white wood stove, logs stored in a wooden box, framed artwork, a window, a dark couch with assorted pillows, a cozy blanket, a small metal side table with a potted plant, and a modern wall sconce.

The Cabin

Sleeps up to four, with a peaceful double bed upstairs and a double sofa bed downstairs.

An open-plan living, dining and kitchen space makes the cabin sociable yet intimate, while the garden invites you outdoors from morning coffee to evening firelight.

Why Our Guests love Jacob Cottage

Designed for Rest

A beautifully curated cabin filled with character and craftsmanship — from Ercol furniture and Welsh slate floors to Toast textiles and Anglepoise lighting.

A bedroom corner with a white shelf holding books and a framed floral picture, a dried flower arrangement in a clear vase, and a wall-mounted reading lamp. Part of a bed with a plaid pillow is visible.

A wooden outdoor shelf with chopped firewood and a deer antler on top, a small orange box of Elastoplast bandages, a potted cactus, a glass plant bottle, yellow and white plates, cups, a teapot, a large stainless steel kettle, and a coffee pot on a rustic wooden table.

Cook & Dine Outdoors

An outdoor kitchen and Gozney pizza oven make slow evenings under the trees unforgettable.

A cozy living room with a wood stove, a framed deer print on white wall, a potted plant on a small table, and a black and white geometric rug. There are logs in a wooden crate, some firewood stacked underneath the stove, and decorative items on the floor. A blanket is draped over a dark-colored chair or sofa.

Cosy All Year Round

Summer sundowners in the garden, winter evenings by the Charnwood stove.

A coastal scene with rocky cliffs, a sandy beach, a body of water, and a hill in the background under a clear blue sky.

One of the UK’s most iconic beaches is right on your doorstep.

What Our Guests Say

A table near a window holding a glass jar with flowers and a small card labeled "Jacob Cottage.

“What a great little find.

Stayed at Jacob Cottage for a short break and it was every bit as wonderful as the photos. A lovely scandi feel and tastefully done. Well-equipped and spotlessly clean.

Lara and Jeff were so welcoming and left us a welcome bag of local goodies and even some home made granola. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

We will certainly be back.”
