A tranquil ancient woodland nature reserve running down a valley to Caswell Bay on the Gower. Deeply calming, with a stream, birdsong and dense tree cover. Reached on foot via the coastal path from Mumbles; internal trails are natural woodland paths, so not fully step-free. A restorative, low-stimulation escape into nature close to the sea.
