The Location

Reynoldston is 12 miles from central Swansea and 7.3miles from the M4 at Penllergaer. The village has a strong sense of community with village shop and the ever popular King Arthur pub and restaurant.

Knelston Primary School is 1.2 miles and the village is in the catchment for the excellent Bishopston Comprehensive School.

Reynoldston sits at the centre of all that Gower has to offer: Oxwich Bay is 3.4 miles, Rhossilli is 5.1 miles, Llangennith is 4 miles, Three Cliffs Bay is 4.4miles, and Whiteford Sands is 4.1 miles.

Reynoldston is situated on the Western slopes of Cefn Bryn, in the heart of Gower. It is thought to have derived its name from one of the early Lords of Gower, Reginald de Breos.

Reynoldston is the intersection of North and South Gower and has the advantage of sharing the views of both landscapes. From the top of Cefn Bryn, the second highest point on Gower and whose prominent skyline dominates most of the views, you can wonder at the breathtaking scenery.

On a clear day, you can not only see the coastline of the peninsula, but over the Bristol Channel to Lundy Island, Devon and Exmoor, North towards the Brecon Beacons and West to Carmarthenshire.

Arthur’s Stone pictured above is a Neolithic tomb. There are many legends and tales associated with it. One in particular speaks of a local miller, who cut a piece off the stone to use as a millstone, but once it was apart, was too heavy to move. The separated piece has laid in its fallen state since.

Another legend mentions that the stone was a pebble in King Arthur’s boot. Once he had removed it from his boot, he threw it across the water and it came to land on Cefn Bryn. Watch out if you are around on Old Year’s Night (New Year’s Eve). The stone is supposed to get up and go down to the sea for a drink!
