A charming seaside resort with a seven-mile stretch of sandy beach that was once famous for car racing and speed record attempts.

Pendine is the ideal beach village, with local pubs and restaurants providing superb food, a café, a grocery store, and gift shops. Pendine is also home to the Land of Speeds Museum, which can be found on Pendine Promenade; the land speed record was really broken on Pendine's beach!

We requested a hot tub clean mid week as we had used it a lot. Caroline's husband came the next day to do that for us. We were left a lovely welcome pack which we really appreciated, especially the Welsh tea! The house is situated in a perfect location, with everything on the doorstep, including the beach. Pendine is a lovely little place, with an amazing beach, pub and places to eat. We loved our week there and will recommend Balmoral to our friends and family. Thank you

i have to mention a few issues upon arrival there was crisps and sweets under the settee in the lounge. In one of the bedrooms there was a pair of white socks with blood on them and a beer bottle top under the bed. Also there is a lot of food debris under the micro wave. Upstairs toilet , on the underside of the toilet seat there was a lot of blood. Pro. There was a problem with the internet when we arrived but hats of to the owner someone came to the house to try and fix it.
