St. Cenydd’s Church is a beautiful church set in the heart of Llangennith. It was built around the 12th century on the site of a 6th-century llan, or churchyard. If a Welsh village has a 'Llan' in the name, it contains a church. The church has a long chancel, but it is the large, impressive square saddleback roofed tower with lancet windows that is a striking sight. The church was originally built on the site of a priory originally established by St. Ceyndd, who was born in the local area.

Llangennith village is a charming village in the Gower Penninsula set between the rolling coastal hills of Llanmadoc Hill, Rhossili Down, and Hardings Down. Beautiful St.Cenydd church is the central and focal point of the village, with the pub coming in a close second. The village is a very popular location with families and surfers.

Rhossili Bay is the focal point of the Gower Peninsula. It is just such an iconic destination. In the immediate vicinity, you have views of the amazing rocky peninsula of Worms Head, the sweeping panoramic view across Rhossili Bay Beach, and the nearby ridge that forms Rhossili Down with its trig pointed summit. There is a National Trust car park here for parking, bars, and cafes. The path down to the beach is good but not accessible for wheelchairs, unfortunately. On the beach itself, there is the iconic wreck of the Norwegian barque Helvetia. The remains of the wreck at low tide are simply one of the most photographed locations on Gower, and its ribbed outline resembles something akin to a dinosaur ribcage poking its way out of the sand. On the far side of this glorious three-mile beach is Burry Holmes Island, but it is only accessible at low tide. This is equally so with nearby Worms Head, which is a great adventure but one that needs due care due to its rocky nature and tidal access. This iconic tidal penninsula is only available 2.5 hours either side of low tide, and the walk will take you a minimum of two hours. Ensure you are in good physical shape to do the journey and have checked the tide times before you depart. If in doubt or for further excellent information, see Chris Knight's webpage below. https://ohwhataknight.co.uk/blog/worms-head-hike-guide WARNING: Crossing to Worms Head has resulted in injuries and drowning fatalities in the past. If you have been caught out by the tide, do not attempt to swim ashore.

Cefn Bryn at 188 metres is a UK designated ‘Hump,’ which is a hill with a 100 metres of prominence. The top is marked by a trig point with marvellous views down over Three Cliffs Bay.

Oxwich Towers is a lodge at the main gates of Penrice Castle that was constructed in the 1790s as an extravagant Gothic folly designed to resemble a ruined castle. It now serves as a luxury self catering option and is often used for honeymoons.

From here you have a wonderful view of the tour to Worms Head and you can let the day end
