Brangwyn Hall

The Brangwyn's mix of neoclassical and Art Deco architecture coupled with the colourful British Empire Panels provide a striking setting to a range of events including concerts, conferences and weddings.

Had our first take away Sunday takeaway dinner today. Without any doubt the best Sunday dinner I've ever had. I'm a vege and had the mushroom wellington. It was fantastic. Top quality, great value and plenty of it.

Offering helpful information, a relaxed shopping experience, tasty treats and fabulous gifts. There simply is no better view- anywhere. All profits from the shop goes towards keeping Gower special. For ever. For everyone.
