“Lovely property, lovely views and lovely town However the dirtiest rental property we have ever rented floors bathrooms appliances,draws, bins etc and the extensive rubbish from the previous guests - pizza boxes, bottles cans full bin bags left and were still there at the end of our stay Condition also an issue one main door off its hinges, freezer compartment in fridge freezer draw broken - other freezer too dirty to use and many spot light bulbs not working.”

The ladies in the local Sykes agency were really helpful and cleaned for 90mins the night we arrived but the property needs proper care and attention

We hope you will be pleased to hear that a new cleaning team are now looking after The Willows. Decorators have been booked in for week beginning 13 May. We do hope we can welcome you back to Newport again soon. The Coast & Country Holidays team Property Owner

“Had a great stay.”

The house is very well equity and was very clean on our arrival. Sometimes you can find things lacking but everything we needed was at the house. I have to mention the garage as this seems a topic in reviews - I have a very large estate car which with a few manoeuvres and filing of the mirrors was able to fit in garage. It would be good to have control of the heating but we asked for it to be on earlier as we had a baby with us and this was done right away. Can not fault and will return.

- Jonathan, February 2022

Thank you Jonathan, happy you had a good stay. Also good to hear you got your car in the garage, we are looking to do a little bit of work shortly on the driveway outside the house to improve the garage access. We look forward to seeing you again, regards John & Marianne Property Owner

“Willows was as listed with great views of Newport bay.”

Bedrooms were comfortable. Unfortunately the house had not had a deep clean as was stated by you to meet the necessary changes made to entry and exit, I.e. dirty frying pan and roasting tray, unwashed mug, dust under table marked with initials of previous tenants, a Golden Lion receipt dated April 2020, lying under en-suite bedroom, brass pin from hairdryer plug found in bedside drawer, obviously hairdryer didn’t work, requested heating changes never materialised even after a number of visits to local coast and country shop. This was our very first experience of not having control over the heating of a property. We did, however, greatly appreciate the support from the coast and country staff.

“The Willows was a fabulous house, the views were also fabulous, we were lucky to be able to drive our estate car through the garage doors and park at the back, the only negative was the company that clean the house aren’t up to scratch, but once reported to Sykes cottages they acted very quickly, contacted the owner who compensated us, after I had spent a couple of hours cleaning it myself, but I would definitely go back, it was a lovely break!”

“Just some very minor points 1.”

No grill pan 2. Definite short of teaspoons 3. Parking is an issue for a larger car

“House was super.”

Loved the separate lounge/tv area the upstairs view and balcony and the tiled floor downstairs, felt very med-like. Parking is challenging but not impossible. F-Pace would not fit in garage so parked that around the corner. Squeezed a Discovery 5 outside house, hugging house with no probs for passing cars and vans although we had to move it to let dustcart through. Lovely dog walk to beach, Nice town - Golden Lion is absolutely superb! Beaches around, particularly Barafundle (1hr drive) superb and totally worth it.

“The house is very comfortable and views are as good as the photos, the village is also very nice.”

The parking is a pain as previous feedback. The staircase is quite steep and our elderly parents struggled with it. The kitchen is on a different floor to the lounge so it is a pain to carry cups up and down the stairs, especially as the mugs in the cottage are extremely chunky. Also any noise from upstairs easily transmits downstairs. Oh and nowhere in the kitchen to store any food you may have brought in. Having said all above we loved our stay and the views are lovely and beds comfortable so for young families none of the above should be an issue. The house is also very peaceful if you are looking to unwind.

- Allison, June 2021

Thank you for your feedback and first of all we are pleased you and your family enjoyed their stay. In response to the various points you raise: Unfortunately as Feidr Ganol is a narrow road if you park outside the house you do have to get the car quite close to the house to allow other vehicles to pass. As we state on the website the garage has doors at both ends to enable two cars to park if the garage is used or alternatively there is usually space on Parrog Road which is only a short walk from the house. We are sorry your parents had trouble with the stairs, this is not something anybody has commented on before but hope it didn’t cause them too much trouble. Because of the views we designed the house so the living accommodation is upstairs, including the kitchen and the bedrooms downstairs. We understand that if you are using the downstairs sitting room this will mean going upstairs should you need to use the kitchen. There is however a fridge and kettle in the utility room so at least hot drinks could be made without necessarily having to go upstairs. There should be one large drawer in the kitchen units to store any food brought in, which we have always found to be enough together with the work surfaces but we are sorry if this caused you an issue during your stay.

“Parking can be an issue as the garage is not very wide, so bring a small car otherwise you can park in Parrog Rd.”

Neighbours opposite the house now have a sign to not park outside the garage as it impairs their access.

“Beautiful property with stunning views.”

Ideal for a family as there is plenty of space. The standard of the property is extremely high and was very comfortable. Will definitely be returning!

“An amazing house in a great location.”

Absolutely recommend.

“I enjoyed the holiday but the house was much too big for the 3 of us the two faults were reported and some came out a couple of days later to fix the problem.”

The Garage was a pain to get in I drove through and had to put my wing mirrors down. When I drove out the incline on to the road was so steep it ripped off the underneath drip tray and I had to go to the local garage to get it repaired. Apart from that the house was warm and well equipped beds were comfy the views from upstairs were spectacular if we were a bigger party I would rebook

“An ideal location to explore this remote area of Pembrokeshire and within an easy walk to Newport town centre”

“In these strange times it was helpful and reassuring to receive clear and informed updates along with useful information regarding the holiday and changes to arrangements.”

Carina July 2020

“We adored the Willows and felt it was beautifully organised and prepared for us.”

Only small comment was it would have been nice to have a Dish brush to wash dishes with? We went and bought our own but that was a bit odd to arrive and have no way to wash dishes by hand. Stunning venue and views. We will definitely be coming back!
