Windy Ridge
Oxwich

A truly wonderful holiday home, Windy Ridge is a luxury property nestled in the village of Oxwich Green. Windy Ridge is very popular all year round with ramblers and young families alike. When you are not lounging next to Windy Ridge's heated pool the renowned Gower coastal path is on your doorstep winding its way between the string of beautiful bays which make Gower such an idyllic place to visit. The house provides unique walking access to both Oxwich Bay and Slade Bay. The house is on the footpath to Slade Bay, a sandy beach that cannot be reached by car and remains a perfect escape for those seeking beauty and tranquillity. Oxwich Bay is more lively with it's hotel bar and restaurant overlooking the water and a kiosk selling ice cream near the beach; but none of this detracts from its breath taking scenery, which has won numerous awards.

Oxwich
Oxwich is a small pretty village with a shop, a hotel and a church on the edge of the beach. The hotel has a restaurant which is open to the public. There is a large beer garden and a children's play area is provided. It is open all through the day and evening. There is a good view of the beach from the garden. Many weddings are held in the grounds of the hotel because of the beautiful location. The main road into Oxwich leads through the woods and out across the salt marshes and the nature reserve. At the end of this road is a large car park designated for the beach. The beach itself is at the western end of a glorious three mile expanse of golden sand. It is very accessible and you can stay near to the hotel and shops and watch the boats being launched from the slip way. There are water sports available at the Oxwich Bay Beach Club such as dinghy sailing and windsurfing. Ten minutes walk east along the sand and you are surrounded by dunes with salt marshes and woods behind. So much to explore; so much plant and animal life to see. At the far end of the beach is the Great Tor which is a spectacular vertical limestone cliff. Heading west from the car park you follow a path through woods skirting the bay. You come across St Illtyd’s church, lost in the trees with its ancient graveyard. Continue over the headland called Oxwich Point, and there is Slade. Yet another beautiful bay which is much quieter due to the absence of parking. The minimal development at Oxwich does not detract from the magnificence and tranquility of the bay. You will not be disappointed.
