Experience life by the coast on a stay in this luxurious single-storey apartment by the beautiful beach of Rest Bay where you could easily spend a week relaxing on the soft sands whilst the children discover hidden treasures in the rock pools. With underfloor heating throughout and natural light pouring in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, this property is a fabulous option for families all year round.

Upon entering the property you’ll be greeted by the bright and airy hall, with plenty of space to put down your belongings before going to explore your home-from-home. Walk through to the living area and feel instantly at home in the cool, contemporary space with a large corner sofa in the centre of the room offering a fantastic social space to watch TV, share stories or play board games. The dining table is located next to the large sliding doors creating a wonderful atmosphere for family mealtimes, with seating for six. Lining the back of the living area is the kitchen which features ample storage and built-in appliances to make cooking whilst on holiday a pleasurable experience. Two bedrooms make up the sleeping arrangements, starting with the chic master bedroom, furnished with a king-size bed to rest your head and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is similarly styled with twin beds and two bright windows. Completing the property is a neutral family bathroom where you can enjoy a long soak in the tub or use the wall-feature mirror to get ready in the mornings. Through the sliding doors in the living room, you can wander out onto the patio to soak up a sunset, a perfect way to end the day.

Less than a mile away is the beautiful Rest Beach, accessible on foot via a coastal path from the patio, where you’ll find an action-packed watersports centre where you can try your hand at an array of sports from surfing to stand up paddleboarding. With ice cream vendors, a seasonal funfair and cafes serving up fine local food, a quintessential day by the sea awaits you in Porthcawl. Or, take the trail to Kenfig Nature Reserve (2 miles) for a wildlife spotting adventure past Glamorgan’s largest natural lake and through the dune habitats.
