Holiday cottages in Ogmore-by-Sea

Stretching out for what seems like forever, the pretty coastal town of Ogmore-by-Sea in the Vale of Glamorgan boasts one of the most impressive, gloriously sandy beaches along the whole of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast - the perfect choice for a self-catering seaside holiday. Whether you’re looking for a fun-filled family break in South Wales, a thrill-seeking surfing adventure or a getaway with your four-pawed pal, a holiday cottage in Ogmore-by-Sea is an ideal base to explore all the unmissable outdoor activities South Wales has to offer. Across the River Ogmore, the Merthyr Mawr dunes are some of the largest in Europe and are home to over a third of all plant and insect life found in Wales.

For anyone in need of a traditional bucket-and-spade seaside adventure, there’s plenty to explore at Ogmore-by-Sea Beach, from hunting for ancient fossils across its expanse of rock pools, to surfing the perfect wave. The beach is also dog friendly, so paws and toes alike can spend hours chasing the tide and bounding through the impressive dunes before retreating to your beautiful holiday cottage. From the beach, journey across Merthyr Mawr dunes to join up with the Glamorgan Heritage Coast Path, passing by Ogmore Castle and through the unspoilt Hardy's Bay and Southerndown, spotting a variety of wildlife along your journey.
