Porthcawl RNLI Lifeboat Station is an operational inshore lifeboat station where the volunteer crew provide an on-call 24/7 search and rescue lifeboat service. The station houses both a D Class and an Atlantic 85 inshore lifeboat. The station has a gift shop which is open daily and it's possible to view the lifeboats and tractors from the shop (when they're housed within the boathouse). On weekends the main boathouse is often open to the public with volunteer visit guides on hand to answer any questions. The lifeboats are launched on training exercise most Sunday mornings between 10am-12pm. Porthcawl RNLI was Wales' busiest RNLI station in 2018, launching 112 times - assisting 144 people, saving 8 lives. The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea.

Very picturesque little village of Newton which is just outside the main Porthcawl area. 2 pubs, village green, and a pretty, little church! Pretty in Summer, very lovely covered in Winter's snow!

Formerly known as The Hospice, St John's House is the oldest habitable dwelling in the town, c.1511. Described by the Royal Commission as: "A Hearth Passage house, the crenellated beams at The Hospice are the only known domestic examples in Glamorgan; the architectural detail is not only of high quality but increasingly lavish timber detail signals the hierarchy of rooms." The house is open on the second Sunday and last Saturday of each month (except December): 11am - 3pm.

Although it probably won’t take you more than an hour to look round. This is well worth a visit. It strangely in the middle of a housing estate. Would be knights and princesses can let their imagination. No toilet or cafe facilities but it free and easily doable.

Bethania Welsh Baptist Chapel is a redundant Grade II* Listed as one of the best surviving architectural achievements by a major chapel architect in his powerful Beaux Arts style. The present Bethania chapel was a product of the last ‘Great Revival’ of 1904 and was constructed in 1908. It was designed in a Classical Beaux Arts style by the locally born architect Sir William Beddoe Rees.

We love this walk its ideal if you have problems getting around because the laid pathway is even and accessible to push chairs, wheel chairs and buggies. Ideal for young cyclists so much freedom and such a lovely walk.
