The Britannia stands at Llanmadoc, in the far north-west corner of Gower, with a terraced garden that looks out over the Loughor estuary and its marshes. It’s a good pause near Whiteford Burrows and the quiet end of the peninsula. Pembrey & Burry Port station lies across the estuary, roughly 7km to the north.
