Where to stay in Townhill
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
St Jude's Church anchors the district. Townhill carries few places to stay, so most visitors book within Swansea and come up for the church and for the house at No 5, Cwmdonkin Drive. The gain is quiet.
A room on this side of Swansea suits anyone content to travel in for the day and back out again at night.

About Townhill
What are the main landmarks in Townhill?
Two names carry it. St Jude's Church stands among the listed structures of Townhill, and the second entry on the roll is a house rather than a monument or a public building. No 5, Cwmdonkin Drive is the other.
Both fall within the same district of Swansea, and a walk between them takes in most of what the record marks out here.
What is the history of Townhill?
No document pins down when Townhill began. Townhill enters the sources as Townhill, Swansea, a district named in its own right, with St Jude's Church the church the listings attach to it. Names outlast dates.
The other protected entry is No 5, Cwmdonkin Drive, a house that the schedule sets down beside the church without further explanation.
Where is Townhill?
Townhill forms part of Swansea. St Jude's Church and Cwmdonkin Drive fall inside its bounds, with the wider city spread beyond them.
