Touched by legend on exquisite Gower, South Wales, The King Arthur is a delightful gastro pub. With its log fires and cosy restaurant, it has a relaxed and friendly old pub atmosphere. The King Arthur is found nestling under Cefn Bryn, the highest point on Gower Peninsula. On a clear day, you can not only see the coastline, but over the Bristol Channel and North towards the Brecon Beacons and West to Carmarthenshire. A great stop off on a trip down the gower.
