Mumbles sits in a
majestic position on the western tip of Swansea Bay
and has been the favoured holiday resort of the area since early in the 19th
Century, when passengers began arriving on what was then the brand new steam
railway. As well as being a stunning destination in its own right, it marks the
gateway to the Gower Peninsula, a part of Wales which, in 1956, became the
United Kingdom’s first official Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
