We were the first couple to get married in the new 'chestnut room'. As a location for a wedding we could not fault it, it is right on the beach so all our wedding photos were taken on a short walk onto the beach. The wedding breakfast was good quality food which everyone enjoyed and the hotel also provided a... More

My wife and I called in to the Oxwich Bay Hotel on a Monday evening. Our visit was unplanned and we were passing whilst out on our motorcycle. We decided to stop at this location as a change to our usual venue. The location is beautiful with views over Oasis Bay and the well kept gardens. We chose to sit... More

we stayed for a mid-week short break at this small friendly hotel. The food was very good - with local produce used in an imaginative small menu. Our room was comfortable - it is worth getting a sea view if possible.

Went in for a cream tea. Everything was disappointing. Lovely location but we received plastic scones and whippy cream. Asked for clotted cream as advertised and we were told that they had made the cream for us. Had to make do we with rancid butter. Such a shame.

Thank you for your review. I am disappointed that you were so unhappy with your afternoon tea. We have many compliments on our afternoon teas and many return customers for this and it is a shame that this will affect your view of the hotel. I hope one day you may return and try one of our homemade cakes instead. More

What you are paying for is location. It is a quaint hotel right on the beach geared towards weddings. The cottages away from the beach were a bit tired and run down but the rooms with the sea view in the hotel are much nicer albeit more expensive and smaller but in my opinion worth it. Waking up to the... More
