  • We take a weekend visit to Porthcawl staying at the Seabank hotel. We visit Coney Beach fair and get to enjoy the most amazing ice cream ever! We also discover Mama Fran’s a sheer delight!!!! None of my videos are sponsored but if we find something good we talk about it.

    Great video l love Porthcawl. Shame that the Fairground is going to be demolished soon to make way for houses and l believe small shops it won't be the same. At least the caravan park is still there l don't think that will be going any time soon.

      It’s sad but it’s time for it to go, it’s looking rough. I’ve spent many happy hours there as a child and a parent but it’s well past it’s sell by date.

    Great video! I think it’ll be more of a ghost town when the rides etc be knocked down not many people will want to visit porthcawl only place they’ll go to is Trecco bay but will people wanna go to a caravan park?

    Porthcawl is always packed any time it’s sunny. I live 10 minutes away and you can’t park anywhere on a sunny day. The bars are full outside and thriving and every September porthcawl is filled with Elvis fans and impersonators for Elvis Fest. Regardless of Coney Beach eventually going I still think it’s far from being a ghost town.
