  • Riding on Beaches and Estuaries
    ADVICE ON Riding on Beaches and Estuaries 2 There are a number of beaches around England, Wales and Ireland that allow riding and BHS Approved centres that offer the opportunity to ride on a beach. There are many health benefits of riding on a sandy beach for horse and rider. Long sandy stretches are good for building up fitness levels and often the sand can encourage muscle tone and strength. It can provide outstanding views of the sea and is a refreshing way to see areas of beauty throughout the coasts of England, Wales and Ireland. Beach riding can be a wonderful experience for both you and your horse if you are aware of a few points of legality and safety, so please read all the guidance in this leaflet. Estuaries are where rivers meet the sea and they are unpredictable places, requiring caution and respect for the variety of conditions underfoot, the special ecology and the potential risks in riding there. While large expanses of open ground look inviting to riders, some of the conditions encountered may be dangerous. However, with due care and knowledge, estuaries can provide excellent riding opportunities. Is riding on the beach permitted? Check that riding on the beach is permitted. It may be limited to certain times, days or areas and there may be bylaws. Restrictions on time will often be to riders’ benefit, being at quieter periods such as early morning and late evening when there may be fewer other users to avoid. If there are areas where riding is not permitted, be sure you are clear about their extent and avoid them carefully; their boundaries may not be obvious even if they are above high water because signs and fences tend not to last long on the shore or may not be permitted.

In the 1880’s the property was bought and enlarged to become the Langland Bay Hotel, until it was sold again in 1922 to become a convalescent home. During the Second World War the property was requisitioned as an annexe to Swansea Hospital, until 1946, when it resumed its role as a convalescent home until its closure in 2004.

  • 20 the Osborne Rotherslade Road | Langland | Swansea | SA3 4QA Seller Insight
    20 The Osborne Rotherslade Road | Langland | Swansea | SA3 4QA Seller Insight This outstanding apartment is part of an exclusive development of luxurious, individually designed, apartments located on the edge of Langland and Rotherslade Bay. This stunning location is renowned for being one of the most beautiful stretches of beach on the Gower peninsular. The apartments, which were constructed in 2006, stand on the site on which once stood the Osborn Hotel and the external design of the newer complex reflects the art deco design of the original property. This spacious apartment, which is one of the largest, has been brilliantly maintained. It is bright and sunny, with a flexible, spacious, layout, combined with comfortable and sociable rooms. Located on the second floor, its design is quite unique and, amongst its many delightful features, is its ‘wrap around’ balcony which opens out from the main living area and which provides an extra dimension to the spectacular panoramic views over the bay. Mumbles is conveniently close to the apartment and which contains an outstanding selection of independent shops and boutiques. There are also numerous wine bars together with excellent restaurants serving fresh local produce. The golf course is also very close, alongside opportunities to explore the many delights of the Gower Peninsular. The University City of Swansea is twenty minutes away for a wider range of services, together with access to road and rail links. This is undoubtedly the large welcoming living space. It is cleverly zoned to provide areas for cooking, dining and relaxation; there is even a compact study area.

  • Bulletin BMIG 25
    Bulletin of the British Myriapod & Isopod Group Volume 25 (2011) FIELD MEETING REPORTS A REPORT ON THE BRITISH MYRIAPOD AND ISOPOD GROUP VISIT TO SWANSEA, 27-30th MARCH 2008 Ian K Morgan Y Berllan, 19 Tyrwaun, Pwll, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire SA15 4AY. The origins of this visit followed on from a discussion that I had the previous year with Mark Winder. Mark (with whom I was a Planning Ecologist with the City and County of Swansea), already had an interest in spiders and, given the potential of making good records in an area that ranged from urban habitats, brownfield sites and parks to maritime cliffs and saltmarsh, we volunteered to help organise the 2008 event. As I had (by Spring 2008) left employment with CCS, Mark arranged the logistics of the visit such as accommodation, whilst I helped with the choice of sites and the itinerary. I would like to thank Mark at this late stage for all his help and also to apologise for the lateness of this account. The participants visited some nine 10km squares in the Swansea area (vc41, Glamorgan) and in the extreme south-east of Carmarthenshire (vc44). It is my view that Swansea, including the adjacent peninsula of Gower and nearby towns, has much to offer for the recording of myriapods and woodlice, as well as other invertebrate groups. The general area is not well recorded, though Gordon Blower visited Gower on more than occasion and carried out valuable detailed studies with his students at several locations (see Blower, 1989). I also, when I was actively recording in the late 1980`s, carried out some investigation of the fauna on Swansea’s periphery at Loughor and occasionally on north Gower (Morgan, 1988).
