Description
Escape to the beautiful Pembrokeshire coast and enjoy a relaxing stay in this spacious, detached bungalow, perfectly positioned in the charming town of Newport within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. This welcoming property offers a true home-from-home feel, thoughtfully styled with original artwork by talented local artists and craftsmen, and with glimpses of Newport Bay from some rooms to remind you just how close you are to the sea.
Designed entirely on one level for easy, comfortable living, the bungalow provides generous space for families and friends to unwind together. You’re welcomed into a hallway with a charming settle and table, leading through to a bright and spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area with a tiled floor. The kitchen is well-equipped with fitted Shaker-style units, an integrated electric oven and hob, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and microwave, making it ideal for everything from quick breakfasts to relaxed evening meals. The dining area features a handmade oak table, Welsh dresser, and glazed doors that open onto the rear patio, creating a wonderful space for both indoor dining and seamless access to the garden.
The sitting room is light, airy, and comfortably furnished, with glass doors opening to the front of the bungalow and offering a lovely sea view. With comfortable sofas, an armchair, Smart TV, and shelves filled with books and interesting curios, it’s the perfect place to relax after a day out. A multi-fuel stove adds warmth for cosy evenings (a starter basket of logs is provided).
There are three inviting bedrooms. The king-size room enjoys a lovely sea view and includes armchairs, storage, and a relaxing feel. The twin bedroom features its own small sun room overlooking the garden, creating a peaceful retreat, and leads through to a private en-suite shower room. The third bedroom is a comfortable double. A family bathroom with a bath and shower over completes the interior.
Outside, the rear garden is a true sun trap, accessed through patio doors from the dining area. Surrounded by high hedging for privacy and shelter, it offers a patio with dining furniture for al fresco meals, along with a few steps leading up to a lawned area. The garden wraps around the property to the front, where there is a lawn bordered by a low wall and attractive shrubs. There is ample roadside parking available.
Just a 10-minute walk away, you’ll find Parrog Beach and the peaceful Nevern Estuary, where you can join the breathtaking 186-mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Newport itself is a delight, with its mix of independent shops, galleries, cafés, pubs, and restaurants, along with a general store and a weekly Local Producers Market. Nearby Newport Sands offers a sweeping sandy beach backed by an 18-hole golf course, while Carningli Mountain and the Preseli Hills provide a stunning natural backdrop.
With full gas central heating, WiFi, and thoughtful touches throughout, the property is well-equipped for a comfortable stay. A cot and highchair are available on request, and up to two small, well-behaved dogs are welcome (additional charges apply). Please note that smoking is not permitted and guests are asked to bring their own beach towels.
Whether you’re looking for coastal adventures, scenic walks, or simply time to relax and recharge, this lovely Newport bungalow offers the perfect base for discovering the very best of North Pembrokeshire.

What guests are saying
The house was not clean - spider webs in doorways and even on some of the floors.
Old, tired looking furniture with stains. Occasional cushions, as well those on the sofas and chairs had feathers coming out of them. The whole place needs a lick of paint and brightening up. A lot of owner memorabilia and their possessions taking up space in cupboards and wardrobes. The property was disappointing, but in a good location.
Had a great week staying at Dolwylan.
Newport and the surrounding areas are lovely for a relaxing break. House was great, really clean. Also in a quiet area so we enjoyed the peace and quiet there. It's nice to see the family use the house and have lots of their own things around. Only downside was in the kitchen, there was nowhere to store our own food as the cupboards were full. Same in the bathrooms, really need to have a cabinet or shelves for guests to store their products. Apart from those minor points we would definitely like to stay in Dolwylan again.
What a wonderful house that is very clearly loved and regularly used by its owners.
We have stayed in many places in Newport over a lot of years but this far and away suited us the best (two adults, one five year old and two dogs). Beautifully appointed, everything very comfortable, clean and a true home from home. The location was gloriously peaceful with views of the Parrog and the Big Beach. Everything walkable so we hardly used the car. We have already booked to stay again next summer and hope to return in the meantime too.
