Royal Porthcawl Golf Club

This internationally renowned golf course hosted the 1995 Walker Cup.

Reviewed By Apollo1961 - Kimbolton, United Kingdom

What a fantastic experience, amazing course but bring some extra balls. Everything about our experience was amazing, the warm welcome in the pro shop and the clubhouse is a credit to the club. The cleaner was very helpful and friendly too, even asking if we’d enjoyed ourselves when we saw her the following morning. Stayed in The Dormy and what a pleasure that was too, spacious and clean. Can’t praise the Club high enough.

Rest Bay Beach

Reviewed By 2wit2Huw - Cardiff, United Kingdom

Rest Bay has been transformed with the new Activity Centre where you can hire Bikes, boards, wetsuits and have lessons on how to use them. An outside Costa (and toilets) or upstairs for quality food or just coffee and cakes. The Sandy flat beach has always been a favourite for surfers and children, with rock pools, clean sand and lifeguards on duty. A wonderful place for all ages.
