Gower peninsular is pretty good just for a day out. Nice grub here http://www.kingarthurhotel.co.uk/

Take the A465 north for around 1/2 hour and the beacons are your plaything. Watch out for plod with a polaroid though.
Only stayed at the Marriott, Ramada and Towers. There is another in the center (ex post house if its still around) but parking is naff. Towers is the best in my opinion. Marriott is right on the beach and next to the marina and the Ramada is in a light industrial estate.

The Wiltshire TVRCC are using these later this month, if it's Swansea you want.

If you want a good run out, I'd go north of the M4 not South.
The Gower scenery is second to none but TVR driving country is North of the M4.

we stayed in a B&B on the front, well just off the front behind the row of white appartments/holiday homes. the chap who owns them also has a new build behind them and he does B&B his name is Jeff! we only found out about it as another B&B was full and they recomended it to us. We only stayed there the one night (Fri) was very good though. i have the phone No if you require it.

Hey Andy
Yeah i know the one. Sounds really nice, when i mentioned you were down there to my wife, she guessed it might have been that one. Its ok about the number thanks, my in laws own a caravan in the park just behind that (Highfields) so we stayed there fri and sat and most probably walked past the B&B both days.
The whole area is really nice and definately worth a re-visit. All the best.
