    John Street is a charming traditional "High Street" with a good mix of shops. Porthcawl has some good pubs and restaurants and nice walks on the promenade. Great beaches too but it's the Bristol Channel so chilly most of the year...

    Porthcawl is a traditional seaside town.

    Porthcawl is a traditional seaside town. Full of friendly locals. Lovely pubs and cafes and the best ice cream ever from Sidoli's. Our favourite pubs for great food is the Salt Water Inn and the Globe. The Boat House is our favourite fish and chip shop. Always a queue as the fish is cooked to order. Worth the wait as it's delicious. Beautiful sandy beaches great for sandcastles. Donkey rides in the summer at Coney beach right next to the Funfair. At Rest Bay there is a surf school and a lovely restaurant with fantastic views. Also there is a great board walk with the beach on one side and a golf course on the other which then leads onto the coastal path. Porthcawl is a great base for visiting Cardiff Swansea and many other great places. Every week through the summer one of the local pubs puts on a great and free firework display down on the beach.

    Not being able to walk very far.

    Not being able to walk very far. We were able to enjoy the walk along the prom to the harbour. And there was a land train that you could take to go further afield. There were lots of cafes and restaurants.

    We had a great weekend break.

    We had a great weekend break. We watched a concert in the pavilion. , We had breakfast in the cafe at the front and watched live music in the Rock and the Marine. We visited the fairground and sat by the marina and watched the boats go in and out. Lovely beaches and great places to eat, all in all it was brilliant

    Beautiful place with a lovely walk along seafront from Trecco Bay to harbour. Plenty of restaurants and shops a short walk down side streets from seafront. A lot of money spent and continuing investment in keeping Porthcawl modern. Aldi store being built near seafront. Plenty of activities for children including a funfair. First class fish and chips at Finnegans and Beales. Rest Bay car park with sea views and a new Watersports centre. Relaxing cuppa at Seabank hotel.

    Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Nothing too much trouble. Food was delicious with plenty of choice. Lovely breakfast to start the day. Good location for walking. Footpath quite close by to take you to Rest Bay and beyond towards Kenfig or go the other way via common towards Porthcawl itself. Amazing walk. Cafe at Rest Bay offering wide range of drinks and food with stunning views out to sea. Ideal for watching surfers. Loved Porthcawl, will be back as soon as able and would definitely stay at Rose & Crown.

    The bed in the King's Room was very comfortable and the residents lounge was most welcoming particularly with the complimentary wine. The bathroom in the King's Room was good and the shower worked well. My sister was in the French Room and they loved it. We thought that it was very nice too. So if you have a choice between the King's and the French Room we would recommend the French room. Annette was a very engaging host and I could not fault her hospitality. The location is excellent with easy access to the town

    Newton Cottage offers a homely stay with hotel quality accommodation. The hosts are welcoming, friendly and helpful to make your stay personal. The breakfast is excellent with high quality produce offered in a continental style and the hosts are accommodating for dietary requirements. Newton Cottage is located in the village centre with many interesting buildings, with local food and drink facilities. Newton beach is within a 10minute walk and Porthcawl within a 30minute walk along the coast path.

    Great stay at 19 Mary Street as always. Easy check in/out, perfect location (seafront less than a minute away), shops, bars, restaurants within a couple of minutes too and a great fish and chip shop a street away-Finnegans (and another great one on the seafront-The Boathouse). Lovely comfy, cosy, spotlessly clean room (lovely decor), quiet hotel - perfect for a trip to Porthcawl. Thanks again Alice! ps. can also recommend a meal at the Harbour Bar & Kitchen - excellent food there with great views.

    The location was lovely and the entertainment was great. The hotel was accessible easily for my mum who struggles to get up stairs. The sea view room was beautiful and spacious and fantastic value for money. The evening entertainment was great fun and it was a suprise to have it on out of season which we thoroughly enjoyed. Drinks were cheap but the barman could use a smile!

    We simply loved this property all around. Everything from the location, to the cleanliness, the amenities, and the comfort. The value we received was amazing. We had a great week visiting family nearby and visiting the beach in Porthcawl. We really loved it. This 4 bedroom home can sleep 8 and we were spoiled as a family of 4.

    It’s very close to Rest Bay and the esplanade with shops and restaurants. My bag was stolen from the beach when I was swimming and the hotel key was in it. I texted and had a new key at the building within 20 minutes. Just amazing and I was so thankful.
