This luxury ground floor apartment is perfect for couples and families looking to escape to the seaside in style and enjoy long days at the beach and surrounding beauty spots.

Enjoy stunning sea views and sumptuous interiors when you escape to this ground-floor apartment in South Wales. Sleeping four guests, and welcoming pups too, the impressive, two-bedroom retreat is situated within a handsome period building on the edge of Porthcawl. Overlooking the beach at Rest Bay, where you can swim and surf, it is also adjacent to a golf club and well-placed for coastal walks and days out to the vibrant city of Swansea.

Prepare to be wowed by the plush decor and unique furnishings of this apartment within a Grade II-listed Victorian property. Slip your walking boots or sandals off in the hall, then amble through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with its opulent finish. Settle in here on the soft velvet sofa, which can be transformed into a king-size bed, for movie nights in and stream films onto the large projector screen. Prepare delicious dinners in the stylish kitchen area, then dine at the table or enjoy a quick snack at the breakfast bar. Make fresh coffee then simply relax for a spell as you take in the views. When you are ready for a splendid night’s sleep, head off to the king-size bedroom, which has an en-suite shower room, or the double. These are both off the main hallway, where the family bathroom is also situated. Make the most of the incredible setting of this coastal hideaway by dining outside on your private patio as often as possible. Cook outside on the BBQ on occasion as you absorb the sweeping vistas.

Pick up the Wales Coast Path and strike out along it in either direction. Walk 3 miles to Kenfig Sands and Kenfig Burrows, via Sker Point. This large area of rolling dunes forms the Kenfig National Nature Reserve, which is known for its colourful orchids.

Lovely apartment in a beautiful setting, with lots of walks etc on the doorstep. If some of the equipment and furniture was updated together with a good deep clean this could be an excellent place to holiday.

Well furnished and very comfortable apartment, in a lovely setting overlooking Royal Porthcawl Golf Club and Rest Bay. Extremely quiet and peaceful. Beach on your doorstep and great for walking. Path all the way into Porthcawl and along the Golf Club fence. Highly recommend this property.

Everything was great and all of my family loved this place. Easy access to the beach and golf club was a great benefit! You can see sun set from the living room which is fantastic. On a rainy day, kids were able to watch movies on a big screen with a projector like a theatre, they loved it so much. Definitely want to come back to this place again nRead moreext summer!! Hide

Fantastic location and views and overall very well presented. Beach is a 2 minute walk. Golden sand with rocks and rock pools. Kitchen moderately well equipped - only one glass, no wine glasses. We struggled to find a baking tray and no frying pan . The hob is induction. The coffee machine is a filter machine for those coffee lovers. Minimal provisRead moreions in cupboard so bring oil etc We do not have a dog but there were dog bowls, treats and towels. Lots of hot water. 2 showers, one with a bath. Hide

Gorgeous apartment in lovely location. Very comfortable beds, good to have 2 bathrooms, great sea views. Small teething problems - not given correct entry code, no welcome pack. A voile or blind in en suite would protect privacy - frosting doesn't work at night! But beautiful place & we would definitely return

A very pleasant apartment with plenty of entertainment available both inside and outside (water sports.) With great view from the lounge overlooking the sea . It has a patio which you get to via the main entrance. Easy access to coastal path . Shop a little further away than expected.
