From the owner

The Old Farmhouse is a cottage with plenty of charm and character. Dating back to the 1880’s, this 140 year old cottage was owned by a farmer who built the house for his daughters. Recently renovated, the house has retained some of its original features – which include an old water pump in the back garden!

This stunningly presented three storey cottage offers everything you’ll need for comfort and convenience. Located near to the town, the fairground and Coney Beach, this cottage is perfect for families looking for somewhere near to all the amenities that Porthcawl has to offer.

What’s more, with 4 bedrooms, 2 large bathrooms, three reception rooms and a large multipurpose room in the attic, families can enjoy holidaying together here with plenty of space to spread out. And there is off road parking to fit 2 cars!

**ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE**

Located in the recently updated and extended back garden, this large 40sqm entertainment centre offers a bar, pool table and TV area which has a range of channels from sports to movies and also comes with a PS4 console and plenty of games to keep the kids entertained on rainy days. And, if they want to take a break from technology – we have plenty of board games too!
