Newtown Lodge

Ann our host was lovely, tea and coffee and biscuits were available on arrival, lovely cottage style house, we’re having tea one evening when Ann brought us some home made cakes, lovely jester, needed a lift one day to a ferry and back in the evening, hosts son and daughter took us and picked us up later, which was very much appreciated .

Couldn’t fault anything had a wonderful stay xx

A delightful holiday lodge , well equipped and in a lovely location Its proximity to the village of Duncanonn was very good , it has couple of great pubs

A fabulous property.

Lots of space for the 4 of us. Ann and Ciaran were very welcoming. The scones, cakes, crisps and milk left for us were a nice surprise. As were the delicious strawberries that Ann brought round later in the week. We loved Duncannon Beach and Off the Hook for their huge ice cream and fish and chips. We wished the weather had been better for us to spend more time in the garden! The Wi-fi was being updated while we were there and the only thing I mentioned to the owners was that the shower curtain was a bit flimsy. We would definitely recommend your property to others. A lovely base to explore the area. Thanks for a great week.

We had a wonderful holiday lovely house would highly recommend this place.

The house was so clean

Host was friendly and helpful on arrival.

Property was very nice. Quiet area with a nice garden. All facilities excellent with very good wi-fi. Would happily visit again.

Newtown Lodge was clean, comfortable and well equipped.

It is an ideal place to explore the surrounding coast and countryside. There is a nice private garden with comfy chairs at the back of the house. Anne, the owner gave us a friendly greeting and showed us everything around which was useful. Also great that we could bring our dog who loved the near by beaches! Not a criticism but a suggestion- it would be nice to have a drop of milk left in the fridge to make our first cup of tea and also a colander for the kitchen! We had a lovely time. Thankyou

We found the property disappointing for the following reasons: There was a smell of dampness when we opened the door The floors were dirty and I had to wash them twice (had to ask for a mop) The grout around the shower tray shows mould and a shower curtain is really outdated as closure for a shower.

The small cupboard under the bathroom sink is dirty. There is no shower mat available so we used a small towel. The curtain rail in the master bedroom is rusty. The mattress is very thin. The kitchen equipment: washing machine had mould in the drawer and the rubber seal inside of the door (I used Flash with bleach on it which I had brought with me). There are three cutting knifes: a pizza cutter, a smaller slicer and a bigger slicer, no bread knife. The only cutting board is very small. There is no salad bowl or jug available. The grass behind the property was not cut and except for a small table with two chairs there was no other seating available. On Wednesday (22nd of May 2024) during our stay there was no running water available (alerted the son of the owner and the problem was fixed on the day). We have photographic evidence of our concerns and feel that the property is not ready to be let. We would also like to speak with you about a refund.
