Bliss at Blacksmiths
Bali St is conveniently located a short walk from Blacksmiths Beach and kid-friendly Grannies Pool, making it a great base if you have young children. The neighbourhood is quiet and the house has everything you need for a casual beach holiday. We had 8 people sleep comfortably for a week.

Charming and well equipped
We enjoyed our 2 night stay in winter. A cosy cottage quickly warmed by air con and plenty of spare blankets . The hosts have thought of everything a family might need. The cottage has a lovely retro feel.
The location is excellent - if you have young children with you Blacksmiths Beach and park are
just a few minutes walk down the road, and there is plenty to look at in Swansea channel which is a stones throw away.

Awesome summer holiday
This property was amazing. Plenty of room, spotless, comfortable fittings.
We had a great time, kids loved it.
It was hard to think of anything that we needed for our holiday that was not there for our use.
Would definitely recommend this property and happily stay there again.
Owners were wonderful.

This is a nice property, it is as advertised, and had everything we needed. close to fishing (lake). Short 3-4 minute walk to the beach. We all enjoyed our time here. The hosts provided all information we needed, and timely. Communication was very easy.
