Cottage vacation rentals in Porthcawl

Brilliant place to spend my birthday. Around the corner from a monkey sanctuary and 30 min drive from Swansea. Getting a taxi to Swansea is difficult and expensive but other than that the location is great

We stayed in Doris cottage over Easter weekend and had such a lovely stay. Debbie and Roger were both so friendly and welcoming and you can tell they take great pride in what they do. The cottage itself was so well equipped with everything you will need for your stay. Truly a little piece of heaven and we cannot recommend enough. Can’t wait to come back!

We had an excellent stay. All amenities were close by. The house was clean and everything we required was available. The hot tub was lovely. The walk to the beach was fine, but difficult if young kids were with you, or not reasonably fit. We would definitely stay again!

Great place to stay for family and friends. We all enjoyed the facilities and felt really comfortable in the home. Thanks!

Joy and Tom were absolutely amazing and extremely generous! It’s a perfect place to stay if you want a romantic place to stay with a loved one or a small getaway with a friend, my partner and I absolutely loved it. The coach house is absolutely adorable and the amenities are just as listed. The service was amazing and the area is beautiful. I could not recommend this stay enough. ❤️

We had a fantastic stay in the Brecon Beacons for the Easter holiday. Clare was a very welcoming host who provided easy to follow directions and a very hospitable welcome including fine cake and prosecco. The accommodation was exactly what we wanted with all the amenities described including gym and hot tub. The home is very well located for walking, it is even possible to walk to Pen y Fan directly from the house! A special thanks to her son-in-law T who was very helpful and enjoyable company!

We had a great stay at Yarlington Dairy. The views were beautiful and inside of the cottage was lovely too. The hot tub was great to come back to after a few long hikes! Great location and really friendly and welcoming host. We will definitely be coming back.

Great stay recommend to anyone

This was our second stay here, which says it all - everything is perfect - the excellent location, beautiful decor, pristine cleanliness, comfortable beds etc etc ….100% recommend

We have just had a wonderful few days at Dan's beautiful house. The weather was really bad for part of our stay, but it was so lovely being able to walk to restaurants (thanks to Dan's brilliant recommendations) and light the lovely wood burner in the evenings. The house itself is beautifully restored and super convenient for a family with a toddler. We didn't end up using the car once during our stay as there were so many things to do within easy walking distance. Thank you so much to Dan and his family for being such brilliant hosts!

Gorgeous stay at the Stable, will definitely return for future stays. Everything was as described and better than expected :) Brilliant comms from the hosts, very easy going and helpful. Thank you Gareth and Sharon.

We had a lovely peaceful few days. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the enclosed garden is perfect (we did keep one dog on a lead as he is tall and we didn’t trust he wouldn’t try to jump as there were sheep in the neighbouring field). We were left some milk and Welsh cakes which was a lovely touch. The setting is perfect and whilst a lot of the walking trails in the forest are shut due to storm damage, the car parks are open and we still did some lovely hikes on the fire roads. The pub in Brechfa was fantastic - dog friendly, nice staff and delicious food. We would love to return :)

Wonderful long weekend at Flagstone Cottage, the most peaceful place we’ve ever been, no car noises whatsoever and beautiful scenery. Cottage was exactly as described. We asked for the BBQ to come back out and Clare actually brought out all the outside furniture for us to use which was a nice surprise when we got back from our day trip. Our 5yo daughter loved the mezzanine bedroom and being able to have multiple baths a day (we only have a shower at home). The walk from Llanthony Priory up Hatterhall hill is amazing and the pint in the priory grounds at the end was very scenic and rewarding! Hay-On-Wye is well worth a visit, Abergavenny also.

We stayed for 2 nights at Sharon’s place and were very happy with everything about the house and area. I had not realised how rural the village was and loved the views from the back door watching the sun rise over the hill. The house was spotless and well appointed. The welcome pack was a nice touch although we had brought food with us. The beds and bedding were very comfortable. We had an Indian takeaway from Merthyr Tydfil the first night which we collected. Only 18 minutes drive away, then cooked the second night. Plenty of utensils in the kitchen. We loved the drive over the moors with the fabulous views and had a wonderful hike in the Brecon Beacons. We also visited Brecon and enjoyed having a look around d the shops. Sharon was very responsive and able to give recommendations. We would recommend to anyone planning to explore the area.

What a fabulous experience. From the moment of booking through to arrival and check in and during an all too brief stay, everything was catered for. For my friend and I it was the perfect start to a short bank holiday break after a very busy period of traveling at home and abroad. I have stayed in a good few AB&B places, but Allison's offering is bang on point. She has catered to every need so completely. Amazing.

Thanks to Kathy and David. Their cottage is perfect for a family and the setting is very special. They were both brilliantly welcoming to the whole family. Our boys loved the watemill. And Kathy makes the best scones I’ve ever tasted!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is in a beautiful location with amazing views. We were worried about the road to the house as it was long and steep but excellent instructions really helped and both our cars got right to the top. One of our cars was electric and low too! The house was cosy and homely and sitting by the log fire in the evening was a real treat. We went for a walk from the cottage and saw even more amazing views. About an hour's drive away were also some beautiful waterfalls. It is a perfect location if you like to get away from it all, enjoy being surrounded by nature but still have the comforts of a warm and welcoming house.

We had such a lovely stay here! The place was really pretty and peaceful—perfect for a quiet getaway. It felt really secluded and private, surrounded by beautiful countryside and farm animals, which made it feel extra special. There was also a lovely walk to a nearby pub, which was a great bonus. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a relaxing escape in nature!

What a stunning and peaceful location. John was so lovely and made us feel very welcome. He was so generous to show my 8 year old all the animals and the tractor. He was a big fan. Contact was easy and we were provided some fresh eggs on arrival. I’m confident we will stay again.

Extremely well serviced upon arrival , milk ,breakfast cereal ,lots of bathroom products and cleaners for kitchen surfaces , was given exact directions being a 15 min walk to local pub the property gives easy access to Cardiff and points of interest locally also within a couple of hours to the Cotswolds and Wye valley .

Fantastic place to stay. Beautiful cottage and spotlessly clean. Location is lovely and peaceful.

Firstly, we both want to thank Oeter for allowing us to stay in such a beautiful cottage. It was clean, cosy, quiet, homely...just everything as was described! Everything to the last detail was thought out, including walking routes, local restuarants and pubs there is an entire wall of leaflets as soon as you enter the property of everything that area of south wales has to offer so you really are spoilt for choice. The property was clean and imaculate and with everything you needed, such a stunning place to stay! If you are looking for a quiet retreat for a few days look no further! 10/10 will deffo be coming back! Thank you again for such a lovely stay! Martin & Cara

Good facilities, peaceful, good ambience, warm and cozy. It was a bit hard to find the turnoff when we arrived in last light - it did help to read the detailed location information that our hosts had sent, and to put the actual street address they sent us into Google.

We had a really great stay. The house was well equipped and super cosy. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the lovely big bath. The location is absolutely fab, being less than 5 mins walk to two lovely pubs. A highlight was the bbq hut which we had so much fun cooking in and also using the fire pit and spending the evening under the stars. I am sure we will be back.
