West Glamorgan Guide Centre, 
Parkmill, Gower, Swansea, SA3 2EQ

A charming location for residentials, utilising a Victorian built School and headmasters accommodation in the beautiful Gower Peninsula (the United Kingdom’s first designated area of outstanding natural beauty).

There is a fair sized car park and a large lawned area, perfect for games, a brick barbecue and strong outdoor tables and benches, provide opportunities for eating outdoors.
​
The centre is close to the beautiful Gower beaches, and you can walk up the Ilston Valley through the car park of the Gower Inn pub next door. The Heritage Centre, a popular tourist attraction is not far down the road, it is an old mill, which has animals, play areas, an old air raid shelter, an old cinema and holds themed days in the Summer. However, although being close to the beaches and other tourist attractions, there is no pavement, so you would probably need transport to visit them.

The County trading depot selling uniforms, badges etc is based in the grounds of our centre, and is open Saturdays 3-5pm school term time or by prior arrangement through the Booking Secretary.
