King Arthur Hotel

About King Arthur Hotel

The King Arthur stands on the village green at Reynoldston, tucked under the sandstone ridge of Cefn Bryn in the middle of the peninsula. It has been the social centre of inland Gower for years — an award-winning pub first and an inn second, with log fires, exposed stone and a dining room that fills with walkers, locals and visitors in roughly equal measure.

Rooms are split between the main building and an annexe across the way, comfortable and traditional rather than boutique, and priced sensibly for the area. The kitchen does substantial pub cooking with Gower salt marsh lamb and local beef on the menu, and the bar keeps Welsh ales including Gower Brewery's beers. It is a popular wedding and function venue, so booking a table as well as a room is wise at weekends.

The position is the practical case for staying here. Reynoldston is roughly equidistant from both coasts, so Three Cliffs, Oxwich, Port Eynon, Rhossili and the north Gower marsh are all fifteen to twenty minutes away, and the walk up onto Cefn Bryn to Arthur's Stone starts from the edge of the village. Rates are usually noticeably lower than the beachfront properties.
