Seascape Retreat - 3 Bedroom Flat - Porthcawl

Stay Gower is delighted to present this newly appointed, ground‑floor three‑bedroom apartment in the heart of Porthcawl — a bright, welcoming base just a five‑minute stroll from the seafront. A generous living room spans the front of the property, where a handsome bay window and French doors flood the space with light and open onto a neat front garden — perfect for a slow morning coffee or an early‑evening glass of wine before heading out along the promenade.

Thoughtfully laid out for families and friends, the apartment offers two comfortable double bedrooms — one with its own en‑suite shower and WC — plus a twin room ideal for children or friends. The main bathroom features a large P‑shaped bath with overhead shower, and there’s a handy separate WC near the twin room. A well‑equipped kitchen makes unrushed dinners easy, with dining for six, a gas hob and oven, microwave, fridge‑freezer, washer‑dryer, kettle, toaster and cafetière. Central heating keeps things cosy in the cooler months, and Wi‑Fi throughout. To the rear, you’ll find a private patio and small artificial‑grass garden with outdoor furniture for laid‑back meals in the sea air. One of the biggest bonuses here is off‑street parking at the back for one to two cars — a rare perk in this sought‑after seaside town.

Porthcawl’s beaches are the star of the show and they’re right on your doorstep. Rest Bay — a 3‑minute drive — is a Blue Flag beach loved by surfers for its consistent waves and by walkers for its sweeping sands and boardwalk; it’s also home to the Rest Bay Watersports Centre for lessons and hire with the award‑winning Porthcawl Surf School. In season, RNLI lifeguards patrol the beach for extra peace of mind. If you prefer wilder shores, follow the coastal boardwalk west to Pink Bay and on to Sker Beach for quiet sands, pink‑marbled rocks and big skies — a favourite with locals when you want space and sea all to yourself.

For classic bucket‑and‑spade days, Sandy Bay — known locally as Coney Beach — is a wide, gently sloping sweep of sand beside the Eastern Promenade and is lifeguarded in season. Trecco Bay sits just beyond and, like Rest Bay, proudly holds Blue Flag status; Porthcawl Marina does too, and its smart waterside setting makes an easy wander from the flat. Families will also love the new marine‑themed accessible play area at Cosy Corner on the waterfront — a fresh, fun space designed for picnics and play between beach sessions.

When you’re not on the sand, the Wales Coast Path threads right through town for sea‑breeze strolls past the harbour and lighthouse, or further east towards Ogmore. Nature lovers can head a short drive to Kenfig National Nature Reserve — a spectacular dune system wrapped around Glamorgan’s largest natural lake — or to the towering dunes at Merthyr Mawr for big‑sky walking that feels a world away. History fans will enjoy the romantic ruins (and famous stepping stones) at Ogmore Castle, while garden‑goers and families have a full day out at nearby Margam Country Park with its grand Orangery, herds of deer and miles of parkland.

Golfers are spoiled here: the world‑class links of Royal Porthcawl roll down to the sea just along the coast, a course ranked among the finest anywhere and — in a landmark year for Welsh golf — host of the 2025 AIG Women’s Open. Whether you’re playing or spectating, it’s a spectacular setting.

Food and drink are part of the pleasure of a Porthcawl stay, and you’ll be well placed for everything from casual fish and chips to smart harbour‑side dining. Try Isabella’s on Well Street for a brasserie menu with a Mediterranean accent; book a table at 1832 in the historic Jennings Building for sea‑view plates and cocktails by the marina; and don’t miss The BoatHouse for a classic seaside fish‑and‑chip supper. For a pint with character, the Jolly Sailor in Newton — Porthcawl’s oldest pub — sits by the village green near the 12th‑century church, while the Hi‑Tide on the seafront keeps the entertainment coming with live music and events. Newer favourite the Saltwater Inn on The Square serves crowd‑pleasing grills and Sunday roasts. When you fancy a browse, the independent shops and cafés of John Street are just a short wander away.

Time your visit right and you can catch the town’s biggest party — the Porthcawl Elvis Festival each September — with official shows and a lively fringe filling venues across town. The much‑loved Art‑Deco Grand Pavilion on the seafront is currently undergoing a major refurbishment, but the “Pop‑Up Pavilion” programme keeps live performance going around town.

With beaches for every mood, great places to eat, coastal walks in all directions and private parking waiting for you when you return, this light‑filled ground‑floor apartment is exactly the easy, comfortable base you want for a Porthcawl getaway — from salty‑haired surf weekends to sandy‑toed family holidays.
