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.

Penrice is the largest castle on the Gower and is in a pretty decent state of repair. It has an interesting history in that after the Norman invasion of south Wales one of the successful invading knights was granted land near what is now Penrice village. He took the family name de Penrice and built Penrice castle. The Penrice family still own the estate some 29 generations later. Therefore the castle is on private land but a nearby public footpath allows viewing of certain portions of the wall and towers.

Weobley Castle dates back to the 14th centure and is situated in a fine location overlooking the saltmarshes of the Gower Peninsula. The place was a fortified manor house more than a castle built by the powerful de la Bere family. The castle was attacked and damaged by the forces of Owain Glyndŵr in the early 15th century, but most of the building was left standing. The castle is now in the care of CADW.
