Overlooking the eighteenth hole of the Royal Porthcawl Golf Club, this apartment promises plenty of rest, relaxation and fun in the sun. Days start and end here on the covered balcony, where you can watch the rolling surf with a drink in hand. It's the perfect backdrop for a beachy retreat – even when you're inside, the huge windows make the most of the views and bathe the living space with sunlight. Sleek and sophisticated, this home also doesn't hold back when it comes to modern comforts. A wine fridge ensures your bottles of fizz are always perfectly chilled, underfloor heating keeps frosty toes at bay, and the 75-inch smart TV beckons for family movie nights. Between the fluffy bathrobes, lush rainfall shower, Amazon Alexa and welcome hamper filled with goodies, you'll have everything you need. The location is pretty great, too. Wander down to Porthcawl Rest Bay Beach – it's only a five-minute walk – and sprawl out on the sand, stretch your legs with a trek along the coastal path or if golfing is more your speed, play a round or two on the fairways nearby. After a long day in the sun, reward yourself with a bite to... eat at the bevvy of restaurants, cafes and pubs in town – all just a five-minute drive away.

About Porthcawl
In the 19th century, Porthcawl was a coal port, but its industrial past is long gone, and now this thriving town delights residents and visitors alike. It's no wonder, thanks to its imposing cliffs and gorgeous sandy beaches ranging from Blue Flag stretches popular with families and surfers to secluded coves.
