    I didn't stay there so it's hard to comment on this.

    The location is great, the Londis corner shop is close nearby. The beach is a 5-minute walk and Aldi is a 7 min walk. The house itself is basic but clean and tidy. There are games and books, as well as a TV in the main bedroom and WiFi. We had a little Christmas tree too! I didn't stay there as I booked on behalf of a relative but they said they were happy with the house. From initial inspection, there was enough toilet roll, soap and basic cleaning products (so many places don't provide these at all) as well as towels. The kitchen cupboards had some storecupboard remains which is handy as again, it's better to have a little something on hand. There is plenty of parking space out front. The house is on a residential street so quiet at night. Not much to complain about, especially considering the rates. I would book this house again.

    Need instructions for the stairlift, couldn't get it to work but not a real issue as Mum managed the stairs. Had to put heating on high to get living room warm but meant rest of house was boiling. Just small things easily resolved. Didn't spoil our stay at all.

    Great location. Very comfortable and homely. Had everything we needed for the weekend. Will definitely book again when visiting family in Porthcawl. If going for a summer break then the beach, entertainment etc is just 5 minutes away. Overall we all really liked the house and had a great stay.

    The sofas could do with updating as they were quite dated and became a little uncomfortable. Parts of the house could do with updating but for the price this can be overlooked.

    The location is spot on, a few minutes walk to the beach, fair and arcades. A short walk into the town using the seafront. The house is comfortable and there was plenty of room for our party of 5. The house is well equipped and was clean on arrival. Parking is obviously a premium in this area so having room for our two cars and a visitors car was fantastic. Having two toilets and a separate bathroom was helpful as there were 4 adults in our party.

    Lack of toilet paper, soap, washing up liquid and dishwasher. Not really a problem but we would have come prepared if we'd known. Shower needs a good clean. The crockery was also dirty on arrival.

    Great location, plenty of parking, friendly cleaner over the road. House was much bigger than expected. Nice utility space for sorting beach kit. Decent sized bedrooms. Walking distance to the beach, but still quiet.

    Photos don't do this house justice... its HUGE!!

    The house is a little run down and the back yard could do with a bit of lawn or some flowers or something. There was broken glass on the driveway when we arrived. There was a bit of a weird smell in the house that we couldn't put our finger on to what it was. Not a great smell but if you left the windows open it dulled it down. The furniture is a bit dated and the dishwasher was turned around so we guessed it was broken at the time.

    The house was HUGE! Plenty of space to accommodate our family of 5. The photos do not do it justice!! There were games and books left for others to use which was handy. The beach is so close and has a great funfair (they do half price nights for wristbands) which you can hear but it isn't too loud. There is everything you need in walking distance with some great little shops. The cleaner seemed friendly and came to tell us about the fireworks on the beach which were amazing! Lots of places to eat and also plenty of delivery through just eat. Beach is pretty clean and everyone seems friendly and helpful. We had a great holiday and would definitely come back. Swansea and Cardiff are within driving distance. Swansea has a park and ride where if you park (for £1!!!! So cheap!!!) And show your ticket to the bus driver, you get the bus for free! The parking at the house was enough for at least 3 cars which was a great asset. The rooms are large. There is a massive downstairs toilet which would benefit from reconfiguring and adding a shower cubicle. There is a utility room with a washing machine which is perfect for quick washing the swimming stuff ready for the next day. When I booked, the house was VERY reasonably priced. They could charge at least double what I paid during the holidays. WiFi was a plus and coped with 5 people using it at once without slowing down. Would definitely recommend. Especially if you have an older person like nan or grandad that want a holiday but struggle with the stairs as they have a stair lift at the property and a bedroom just in front of the top of the stairs and easy access to the bathroom .

    The mattress in the master bedroom needs replacing, it was too soft and old. The dishwasher doesn’t work properly, it would not complete the cycle. The “hot” water in the shower was not hot enough.

    Easy to find, good off street parking and a great location. Also the instructions on getting the key were concise and correct with no problems.

    A big house with parking close to Porthcawl. Easy walk there and back. Beds were comfortable. Sitting room, dining room with books and board games. Large well fitted kitchen. Utility with beach spades, buckets and towels if needed. Washing machine. Small rear courtyard for sitting. Good host deals with queries.

    We weren't really sure about how the garbage system worked as the bin for free waste was quite small?

    It was a nice location that was close to the beach and close to small shops as well as Aldi to get any essential items. The house also includes cooking applicances which were important as we didn't need to bring any items.
