Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the cottage to be clean and comfortable. However, there were isolated reports of cleanliness issues such as dead insects and mouse droppings, which slightly affected the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, rural setting, and sea views. It is well-situated for walks and access to Newport, contributing to a positive experience.
The cottage is generally regarded as cosy and comfortable, with a few guests suggesting improvements such as a heated towel rail and better wet weather provisions.
Facilities are deemed adequate, but some guests experienced issues with heating control, lighting, and Wi-Fi. These aspects have led to a slightly lower score in this category.
Many guests mentioned the thoughtful welcome pack, which included items like Welsh cakes and wine. While these gestures are appreciated, it is important to note that such gifts are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
A delightful semi-detached holiday cottage for two in the heart of the Pembrokeshire National Park overlooking Newport Bay on the lower slopes of Carningli Mountain. There are lots of scenic walks in this particularly beautiful part of the National Park.
A pleasant 15 minute down-hill walk leads to the seaside town of Newport where you will find a range of individual shops, eateries and pubs as well as the Parrog beach.
The coastal path can be joined within a 25 minute walk and you can flag down the coastal walkers' bus at the bottom of the hill and enjoy a different walk each day.
Enjoy the Carningli (Mount of Angels) and the Gwaun Valley with ancient settlements, ever-changing colours, bluebell woods and wild Welsh Mountain ponies. Make sure to bring your boots and binoculars!
Newport is a beautiful coastal town in Pembrokeshire, south west Wales lying on the River Nevern with a selection of shops, pubs, tea rooms, plus an excellent golf course overlooking the sea as well as a lovely sheltered harbour. Newport lies on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path which is renowned worldwide for its unique landscape and wonderful opportunities to go dolphin and seal spotting. Wonderful coastal walks along the path or in the nearby Preseli Hills with the ever changing scenery are a walkers dream all year round. Learn about history when you visit the mills, craft centres and castles dotted around the county or spend a day at the wonderful Castell Henllys Iron Age Fort where you can learn hands on all about living during that time. See the majestic Shire Horses at the Shire Horse Farm or spend relaxing days on the huge choice of beautiful sandy beaches. All year round this is a perfect location for all the family.

Had a nice relaxing stay. All the property literature needs updating as it all relates to COVID regulations so seems irrelevant and confusing. The shower enclosure on the bath could do with updating as it leaks whatever remedial measures are put in place. Only other observation is that it would be good to have an earlier check out time published on the Sykes website. John was very accommodating in letting us stay a little later but the Sykes website said 9am checkout with no provision to ask for it any later. Other than that - all good would defo recommend if you like hiking, beaches and being able to walk to the pub.

There are excellent views and we experienced some wonderful sunsets. A lot of attention to detail has been placed in the choice of fixtures and fittings which were all of good quality. The owners were very helpful and friendly without being intrusive. The welcome pack of wine, welsh cakes, milk etc. was much appreciated. We were able to walk from the cottage every day and do several circular walks or linear walks using the T5 bus service.
