We didn't use the enclosed garden for the two dogs as the ground was waterlogged and we didn't want it to end up as a mud bath ! We were very comfortable staying here, and hope to pay a return visit. Would highly recommend this venue

We found crumbs in the grill pan and we definitely left the tins and pans in a better state than we found them. We found lots of random food, nearly empty jars etc in pantry cupboard so removed them to the top shelf. The kitchen sink was very off-putting and needs replacing and I would suggest the purchase of some decent pillows! The downstairs bedroom is ok for children but definitely not big enough for two adults to share. We thoroughly enjoyed Newport and the property is well placed but the interior could be so much better with more thought. Access was tricky and one of our party was nearly mown down by a van on the narrow road, so children need close supervision once outside the boundary. All in all I would recommend for a family but donât expect luxury and you wonât be disappointed.
