About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Relaxed, pet-friendly stay with garden and beach nearby
Welcome to The Guesthouse – a bright and peaceful two-bedroom bungalow just minutes from Aberavon Beach, perfect for a relaxing seaside break or a comfortable work-from-home stay. Once a doctor’s surgery, this unique space has been fully refurbished to create a stylish and welcoming retreat with its own private entrance, garden and patio.
Inside, you’ll find a calming, home-from-home atmosphere with tasteful décor, solid furniture, and thoughtful touches throughout. The open-plan living area features a fully equipped kitchen, dining table, settee, and a smart TV, making it easy to unwind after a day out.
There are two bedrooms:
Main bedroom with a king-size bed, wardrobe, cupboards, desk and space for a crib or playpen
Second bedroom with two singles that can be joined into a king-size, plus ample storage
The wet room-style bathroom has a walk-in shower, toilet and sink. You’ll also have access to a separate utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
For stays longer than 7 days, additional weekly cleans are available at £65 per clean.
Outside, enjoy the private patio and garden – ideal for an evening salad, glass of wine or quiet moment in the fresh air. Fast WiFi and off-road parking are included.
Guests enter via a side path to their own private front door. The entire bungalow, patio and garden are exclusively yours during your stay. Parking is available either on the hardstanding space provided or directly in front of the main house.
We’ll be next door if needed, but otherwise we’ll leave you in peace – unless you fancy a chat!
You’re just a short walk from Aberavon Beach, with play areas, a splash park, cafés, restaurants, mini golf, a scenic pier, and more all nearby. Shops, a chemist, a post office and local parks are also within walking distance.
Margam Country Park is a 10-minute drive, offering woodland walks, wildlife and treetop adventures. If you fancy a day out, Porthcawl Funfair is 20 minutes one way, and Swansea and the Gower Peninsula are 20 minutes in the other – perfect for exploring further afield.
No car? No problem – the bus stop is just 3 minutes away, and both the bus and train stations are around 5 minutes by car, making it easy to get around without driving.
