Swansea is in the historic county boundaries of Glamorgan. Situated on the sandy South West Wales coast, near both the Gower peninsula and the Lliw uplands. Swansea is the second most populous city in Wales after Cardiff.
Swansea originally developed as a Viking trading post. The port of Swansea initially traded in wine, hides, wool, cloth and later in coal. As the Industrial Revolution reached Wales, the combination of a port, local coal, and trading links meant that Swansea was the logical place to site copper smelting works. Smelters were operating by 1720 and proliferated. Following this, more coal mines and smelters were opened and flourished.

The more historic hotels and bed and breakfasts will be towards the centre but there are a decent range of hotels throughout the city along with more rural hotels and B&Bs to stay within easy reach of the city. Overall, there is a good range of bed and breakfast accommodation.
