HOSSILI Old Rectory cannot go unnoticed - it’s the solitary building that nestles into the mountainside that sweeps down to the beach at this famous Gower peninsula.

Inside hit drama The Guest's stunning beachside hideaway

The incredible location, on the globally acclaimed Rhossili Bay, offers stunning views of Worms Head Island and is now featured in new thriller, The Guest.

The TV drama series stars Eve Myles and Gabrielle Creevy as they portray the complex relationship between a wealthy employer and her new cleaner. And it is proving gripping viewing.

Since premiering on BBC One on September 1, the four-episode series has already garnered popularity among viewers and critics, and its stunning Welsh locations showcase exactly what Wales has to offer, from breathtaking landscapes to more rugged and historic architecture.

Arguably the standout location is Rhossili Old Rectory, which Myles’ character offers as a beautiful, windswept hideaway for Creevy's.

Anyone who has visited Rhossili will have noticed the strikingly isolated white house, nestled in acres of its own space above the beach.

The period property sits on a raised terrace in the heart of the dramatic landscape, offering uninterrupted views of the sea and the tidal island of Worm’s Head.

Now, fans of the show have the opportunity to book a stay at the filming location. The Old Rectory, situated at Gower's Rhossili Bay, can be booked through the National Trust - as long as you are prepared to wait probably months, if not years if you want a week in high season, to secure your stay.
