The village of Parkmill (Welsh: Melin y Parc) is a small rural settlement in the Gower Peninsula (Welsh: Gŵyr), South Wales (Welsh: De Cymru), midway between the villages of Penmaen and Ilston (Welsh: Llanilltud Gwyr), about eight miles (13 km) west of Swansea (Welsh: Abertawe), and about one mile (1.5 km) from the north coast of the Bristol Channel (Welsh: Môr Hafren). The village lies to the north of the A4118, the main South Gower road between Swansea and Port Eynon, in a wooded area, at the bottom of a valley.

The building at the centre of the village is a former school that is now home to the West Glamorgan Girl Guides Activity Centre. Pennard golf course lies immediately to the south of the village. Parkmill is in the Gower ward of the City and County of Swansea (Welsh: Cyngor Dinas a Sir Abertawe).

Parkmill's only religious building is the Mount Pisgah United Reformed Church, a Congregational chapel, erected in 1822 and rebuilt in 1890.
