We went as a group of 7. This was a lovely property with one bathroom on each of the 3 levels, allowing us all to have our privacy and space. Landlady was very friendly and welcoming on the phone. The only minor issue was that our dog struggled a bit on the polished stairs. The location & views are fantastic - Ogmore castle is about an hours walk fRead morerom the property.

It was a deceptive house from the front. Very roomy. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room to spread out. Fantastic views from the lounge and garden over the sea. Just be careful of the wooden stairs and the two rocking chairs as they tip easily. Would recommend the house and it's location.
