About The Bear Hotel

Travellers after a comfortable base for a High Street weekend, a wedding party, or a stopover with proper facilities will find The Bear Hotel fits the bill. Set among Cowbridge's shops and eateries, this 33-room hotel combines the feel of a traditional coaching inn with the practical extras of a full-service hotel, including free on-site parking and free WiFi throughout.

Rooms come with drinks available and the usual comforts, and the hotel is equipped with a lift, so access isn't an issue for those who'd rather avoid stairs. There's a restaurant and bar on site, breakfast is served, and guests can make use of a gym and a spa with sauna. A garden offers a spot to sit outside, while porter and concierge services, luggage storage and meeting rooms round out the offer for both leisure and business stays. The hotel also welcomes pets and hosts weddings.

Beyond the front door, Cowbridge itself provides further pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy walking distance, and Llantwit Major station lies a short drive away for onward travel. It's a straightforward, well-equipped choice for anyone wanting to explore the Vale of Glamorgan without sacrificing comfort.
