WE HEART GOWER

According to a survey by new property portal, Boomin (boomin. com), the Gower coast tops the list of the top 20 up-and-coming property locations in the UK, a selection which also includes Ogmore-by-Sea in Glamorgan, Aberavon in Port Talbot, and Cleethorpes in Lincolnshire. Locations were assessed against 10 factors, such as proximity to schools and gyms, crime rates, restaurant options, recent Google property searches and increase in local house prices. Says Gower estate agent Jonathan Morgan of BJP Residential: ‘It’s no surprise to see Gower heading up the list, being the UK’s first ever AONB and home to bucket-list beach, Rhossili. Gower offers a beautiful, remote setting but isn’t isolated, in under half an hour you can be in Swansea.’
