I am not sure I can capture how I really feel about our family stay at Ty Tanglwyst – Holiday Cottages, but I will give it a good try! We booked all four cottages over a year ago for a recent trip we were making to Wales as a family where we were returning our beloved Mum/Grans ashes to her homeland in Wales. The minute I contacted Liz at Ty Tanglwyst, I felt at ease and knew this place was going to be the best location for my family of 15 travellers from around the world. Liz went above and beyond to help me with this part of the trip booking and never got annoyed at my endless questions! Lol. She is an absolute star and a pleasure to deal with on every level. A genuine beautiful soul for sure! Fast forward to our 4 days stay at this gorgeous property… (Where we all wished we could have stayed longer!) Oh my goodness!!! There are just not enough words to describe how perfect this place is and how warmly we were welcomed and treated by Liz and the Ty Tanglwyst Family! The cabins were all clean and homely with their beautiful butter & milk in the fridges. We were greeted with wine and delicious shortbread as well. We all honestly could not have felt more welcome and cared for. The day we scattered my Mums ashes we were able to host our Welsh family members at our cottages where we celebrated the afternoon away as a group. It was the perfect send off for Mum and a beautiful family reunion. I wish I could say so much more because Ty Tanglwyst deserves an extra eloquent review. From the very depths of our hearts Liz and family, THANK YOU so very much.We will return one day!!!!

Had an amazing time! Have stayed at both The Granary and The Coach House and both times were blown away by the hospitality and accommodations themselves. Very cozy with a wood fire fully stocked, a hot tub and beautifully thought out interiors. Was fantastic getting to see the cows going to get milked. The butter and fresh milk provided is amazing! Highly recommend!

Ty Tanglwyst Holiday cottages are my family's favourite place to stay in Wales. We visit every few years from Canada and can't imagine staying anywhere else! The hosts provide the warmest welcome - they're wonderful!! The cottages have so much charm and character - like your very own Escape to the Country. We visited a few weeks ago and got to use the hot tubs for the first time. It was a fantastic place to relax after putting the kids to bed. My children love the place too - especially getting to see the farm. The cottages are in a fantastic location - you're surrounded by nature, but so close to the sea at Porthcawl, and within a short drive to lots of great places (Margam Park, St. Ffagans, beaches and Castles). I've stayed in each of the cottages over the years - they're all lovely. I'd recommend staying here to anyone visiting South Wales. It's idyllic!!

Excellent Cottages for a quiet break. We stayed two nights in November, and the weather wasn't the best, but the cottage was cosy and warm. It had everything we needed. The place is ideally located to visit Cardiff, Swansea, the coast and beaches, and explore inland as well. We will definitely come back

We had a wonderful time in the Coach House, it was perfect for our two families and our 1 year old Granddaughter. The location was fantastic for days out and the Coach house provided for everything we could need including the relaxing hot tub!. We loved the cows coming past the gate every morning to go to the fields. Molly the sheepdog was a welcome visitor too, popping into the garden. Thank you to Liz for looking after our needs and to John for the tour of the Diary which we recommend. We are already thinking of booking again.

This is a perfect location for families of all ages. Our stay at Ivy cottage was idyllic, complimented by the first class Ty Tanglwyst dairy produce. Our grandchildren loved the tractors passing by and the wonderful little play area with the pretty wooden play house and slide . Liz is the perfect hostess and John is a treasure. We re already booking our next visit. Thank you John, Liz, Rhys and Hugh

Super cute cottage! Awesome little play area for kids. Its close to a couple of small villages and about 6 minutes from porthcawl. The family that runs the cottages are over the top nice and extremely helpful. The milk/butter/cream/eggs that are provided are AMAZING! It's the best milk I've ever tasted!

Lovely Swallow Cottage will keep you warm and cosy through the worst weather! Beautifully clean and well card for. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to stay which is near to the beaches of the area and other amenities

We stayed here at The Granary cottage, and it was brilliant! Liz was so helpful both before and during our stay, advising us on nearby places to explore that she'd recommend. The cottage itself is very homely and authentic, and the addition of a log burner with a basket full of wood was a very welcome and cosy addition, along with the complimentary farm milk and butter which was waiting in the fridge on arrival. It was a mere 10 minute drive to the beach and other great places to explore. We'd highly recommend for a home away from home experience in South Wales, and thank you so much Liz for being so welcoming and accommodating to our group.

We had the pleasure of staying for the half term holidays - three generations all together in the Coach House and Swallow Cottage. The smaller cottage was perfect for my parents to get away from the rest of us in The Coach House and our bigger cottage had space for all ten of us to eat together inside and out which was brilliant. The cottage was spacious with all rooms en suite, the kitchen well equipped and utility room much appreciated. The garden great for BBQing and for the boys to be able to play safely away from the farm, They also loved the opportunity to tour the farm and see the calf’s and cows being milked (Thank you John!). We explored lots of the local area and I can recommend Ogmore Castle, stepping stones and beach!

Last night here at Ivy cottage & we couldn't of asked for a more welcoming, accomodating host, Liz couldn't do enough, always available, if not on hand at the farm at the end of her mobile. This is the 3rd time we have stayed & it really is home from home. Would definitely recommend & will return again.
