About the store

Specsavers in Mumbles opened in November 2023 and is a family‑oriented practice with hands‑on partners who also own Specsavers in Swansea.

There is also an opportunity to work across both stores if you so wish. Mumbles is located on the Gower Peninsula, a beautifully scenic location on the western edge of Swansea Bay.
