    “We absolutely loved the property it is a beautiful place and we would love to come back in the future.”

    However, it was such a shame that when we arrived the house was unfortunately not cleaned, the bed sheets had not been changed, there were no new towels (the previous occupants towels were still lying around) , there were no bin bags and there was milk left in the fridge that was 3 days passed its use by date and half drunk. My wife had to hoover the property and clean the bathroom; not something you’d expect to do when you’ve paid over £500 for your stay! We were so thankful that the family before us had left the property in an acceptable condition but this doesn’t make up for the fact the house was not prepared. We only had a 3 night stay so spending the first evening making phone calls and wondering whether we would have clean beds to sleep in was deeply disappointing.

    Dear Mr Aston Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about your recent stay. Before I responded I needed to speak to both the cleaning team and Coast and Country. I am glad that you loved the property but can only apologies for the condition you found the property in. You are correct when you say that it should have been cleaned, had fresh laundry and towels. I know that Coast and Country have been in touch with you personally to apologise and to make amends for the condition which is way below the standards we expect and aspire to. I am uncertain whether they explained the circumstances that caused the situation but would like to explain the reason why as I am equally disappointed in the condition you arrived to. Unfortunately, the system for informing the cleaning team of arrivals is new, this has been used infrequently due to the start of the holiday season with the guest prior to you being an owner booking (It was a relative, it is heartening that they left it in a reasonable condition ! ). This resulted in the cleaner not accessing the data correctly and unfortunately, overlooking the booking. There is also a new system to report issues to the management company, cleaner or owner and this system failed to notify the cleaners of the oversite with sufficient urgency, I suspect due to the Bank Holiday. The missed clean was initially noticed by the Cleaning Supervisor late in the afternoon who had to ring Head office to check as she thought the booking may have been cancelled only to be dismayed when she found out otherwise. This was the lady who called in to rectify the issue. I know from speaking to the local team of the Coast and Country offices, that they would have responded personally, had they known sooner. Thank you once again for taking the time to let us know. We hope to see you again. Andy. Property Owner

The property

This stylishly-furnished home, The Croft, is located in the charming town of Newport just a short stroll from the coast.

This inviting home, which is spread out on one level, warmly welcomes families looking to explore north Pembrokeshire from Cardigan down towards St Davids.

Park in one of the two accessible off-road parking places on the driveway, then unpack your baggage and enter your new home away from home with ease.

Give the designated cook some room in the kitchen, which is equipped with a variety of cooking aids, and a handy washer/dryer that is likely to be useful after a day at the beach.

The open-plan living/dining area is spacious, with double doors leading to the backyard, and features a beautiful woodburning stove that will be enjoyed during the colder months.

Before retiring to either of the bedrooms, take a brief trip to the bathroom and choose between a bath or a shower to get ready for bed.

A king-size bed and a twin bed are in each bedroom, which also has plenty of storage for your personal items and zip/link beds for further flexibility.

Set out for the nearby town, where a light lunch can be enjoyed at Tides Kitchen & Wine Bar or Blas @ Fronlas, or for an evening meal, try out the Castle Inn or Golden Lion.

When you head to Newport Beach, where you may paddle the coastlines, relax in the sun with your favourite book, or grab a bite to eat from the neighbouring Cat Rock Café at Newport Golf Club.

Then stretch your legs by taking in the visual delights along popular Pembrokeshire Coast Path.

The hikers of the group can likewise travel inland to explore Mynydd Carningli in the Preseli Hills or take in the historic serenity of the remarkable Neolithic Burial Chamber at nearby Pentre Ifan.

The nature enthusiasts of the group will want to visit Cilgerran's Wildlife Centre, which can be followed-up with some retail therapy in the historic market town of Cardigan, which witnessed the fist ever Welsh Eisteddfod in its castle, in 1176.

The Croft is the perfect abode for a memorable trip to Pembrokeshire.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
