Top service by the lady on reception on my arrival that evening. Special thanks to her. The building is clearly in need of a spruce up but it was very clean and tidy. The bathroom had a slight smell to it when I arrived but it had gone by the morning.

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. 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.
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
I was visiting Porthcawl for the first time with a friend who grew up there. Location was perfect for us in terms of walking access to the town. Parking for one car meant we could use the property as a base from which to tour the local area. Property had most facilities we needed for a short stay. Really nice shower. Convenience shop opposite meant we could pop out for basics if needed. Flagged a few practical issues to which the owner responded positively.
Rob the owner was brilliant. The apartment was spotless clean, and nothing was too much for rob. We loved our stay and will definitley return again. It was our anniversary and my birthday and our family came to visit us there. Massive fridge freezer, really big bath, nice big tv everything you need for a great stay was provided. Lovely walk just opposite right along the beach up to porthcawl town and rest bay. Highly recomended.
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.
We loved the character and charm of this place and all of the quirky and fun decor. The location is great with easy access to town, Trecco Bay and the beach. The owner is a lovely gentleman who always went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable.
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.
Great base for a few days in Porthcawl, very central. Nice room, free parking outside (if you can grab a space - otherwise cheap parking opposite). Check in codes emailed / texted by owner, but really straightforward. No reception, breakfast etc.
second visit to this lovely hotel, Emma the host is such a lovely helpful person nothing is too much trouble for her, the hotel is clean comfortable and in a great place to explore Porthcawl, cant wait to stay here again soon.
A good place to have a holiday. Near to the town centre and beach.Emma who looked after us in the guest house was excellent.would definitely recommend for the person on a budget.
Spacious 3 bedroom property in a quiet neighbourhood with good facilities and plenty of space for off street parking. We would definitely book again if returning to Porthcawl.
We had a wonderful time. Very well looked after by Jane and Jonathan. Will recommend Newton Cottages to friends who wish to stay in that area of South Wales.
