“A lovely cottage for our annual stay in Newport, in a beautiful setting with amazing views and a fantastic garden.”
The home is comfortable and nicely laid out, with a great power shower and wood burners in the kitchen and sitting room and a generous supply of wood. We were very comfortable as a family of 7 with a dog - although the property would benefit from a second toilet. It's a great base, with Newport's pubs and shops a 10-minute walk away, the beach a 15-20 minute walk away, and we enjoyed a 40-minute trek up to Carn Ingli from the cottage.

The home is comfortable and nicely laid out, with a great power shower and wood burners in the kitchen and sitting room and a generous supply of wood. We were very comfortable as a family of 7 with a dog - although the property would benefit from a second toilet.

The owner's instruction manual is very helpful and welcoming, and there are lovely touches throughout.
Overall the property is well stocked, however there is an insufficient amount of cutlery for a family of 7 (only 7 knives and 8 forks!) - which was odd and frustrating! We made use of the air dryer in the house as we were unable to put up the washing line in the garden (there is not a suitable hole for doing so) and the extractor in the bathroom did not work - so a little attention is needed in places to ensure everything works as intended, especially as the bathroom gets very damp and there is no tumble dryer. However, these are small frustrations in what was otherwise a very enjoyable stay.
