Hi,

The latest Gower Sport Climbing by Rockfax [1] one of the crags is called Foxhole Cove (great piece of climbing, by the way).
Trying to find this spot from the car park in Southgate, I met a local chap walking his dog who lives just by the cliff and I had a chat with him.
He said he knows all the spots where climbers have been active recently and the Foxhole Cove is actually called Forester Cove or Forester's Cove.
The Foxhole is a short face with small cave on the right-hand side of the path leading from the car park to the beach. He showed me that spot, and I can say it's not climbable Then he showed me the mentioned Forester Cove
where I found what Rockfax (and others) describe as Foxhole Cove.

I'm just curious, where the names confusion comes from?
