The Great House Hotel

Wow! What a find! This place is full of charm and character. Set in a beautiful little village. My room was exceptional, so comfortable. The bar area was lively, full of friendly locals, the staff were all so kind and helpful. Had a gorgeous squid dish with a lovely glass of white for my dinner. Slept really well. Would totally recommend 😊

I wouldn’t keep a dog in this place the rooms are truly awful. Hasn’t had a penny spent since the 80s room was bland depressing. Avoid at all costs as your hard earned money could be spent better elsewhere. Carpet was thread bear and the beds were worn out.

Great location with a bus stop outside taking you into Porthcawl. Rooms clean with fluffy towels and bathrobes. Tea making facilities also in bedrooms. Breakfast absolutely top quality and staff also friendly and allowed us early access to our rooms. Highly recommend.

We only booked for one night as we had just emptied our house and we where traveling on , this is basically a nIce hotel , maybe we where just unlucky , just a warning for future guests ,they have a room that is called the black room , well I can write a full page just about that, everything is black, floors,walls, curtains,lamps , even the ceiling, is black mirrored with small purple fluorescent lights , the lighting is terrible, no ways u can put any makeup on , not even in the bathroom , , I see I am not the first person to comment on this terrible decorated room , anyway , I could describe it another way , but I leave it up to the individual, we needed a shower , cold water and unfixable , we where offered another room , but I just did not have the strength anymore to pack up again , I did ask for a discount, which was given , but I am afraid the damage was done , so all and all not the best experiences, just a thought , maybe a change of the colour scheme in that horrible room would help Betsy Thomson

the meal was top class, but ,the service was mandioca at best, staff need to learn to be polite and a smile would not go amiss, staff failed to mention there is a parking enforcement policy in place, spent £100+ on a meal for two then 10 days later had a £60 parking fine, guess where I will not be eating again.

Sorry to see that my favourite restaurant now endorces a penalty charge for cusomer parking forcustomer and non customer alike, it's only my opinion but surely this is bad business practice by potentially penalising regular customers, when surely just a general sign would be appropriate.
