"The cottage was exactly as described, perfect for walking into town and Parrog and also for walking on the hill up the lane which overlooks Newport Bay."
We walked to the Bluestone Brewery enjoyed a taster tray before walking back. Sue was extremely accommodating in letting us check in to the cottage early and also letting us sit in her garden area to enjoy the evening sun. I would recommend this lovely little cottage with it's own large parking area. ☺️

"We had the most lovely stay at the cottage."
Yes it's small, but it did the job perfectly. It was so quiet at nighttime, we slept extremely well. The host was so friendly and helpful, and there were a few welcoming surprises to greet us. Can highly recommend!

"Very nice property."
Had a nice relaxing stay.
All the property literature needs updating as it all relates to COVID regulations so seems irrelevant and confusing. The shower enclosure on the bath could do with updating as it leaks whatever remedial measures are put in place. Only other observation is that it would be good to have an earlier check out time published on the Sykes website. John was very accommodating in letting us stay a little later but the Sykes website said 9am checkout with no provision to ask for it any later.
Other than that - all good would defo recommend if you like hiking, beaches and being able to walk to the pub.

"A lovely, cosy and comfortable cottage in a beautiful and peaceful location."
There are excellent views and we experienced some wonderful sunsets. A lot of attention to detail has been placed in the choice of fixtures and fittings which were all of good quality. The owners were very helpful and friendly without being intrusive. The welcome pack of wine, welsh cakes, milk etc. was much appreciated. We were able to walk from the cottage every day and do several circular walks or linear walks using the T5 bus service.

"I had a lovely time in this home from home over Christmas, with a warm welcome from Sue, and decorations inside and out."
The wine and cakes were much appreciated. The cottage is ideally placed for walking along the coastal path and the Preseli hills, whilst being very close to Newport with its pubs, shops and great beaches. I shall miss the sea view from the bedroom in the mornings. The garden was enclosed for Molly (the dog), but ensure gates are properly closed because of sheep wandering along the road. Highly recommended.
Dear Sue
Thank you so much for your lovely review. You are the first guest we have had at Christmas! I do hope you'll return at either Christmas next year or at another time during the year. Spring is gorgeous here. I'm delighted to hear you enjoyed the holiday. Sorry to miss you before you left. Very best wishes the Davies familyor at another time in the year.

"Wir sind bereits nach 3 von 6 Übernachtungen abgereist und mussten uns für die weiteren Tage eine andere Unterkunft suchen."
Trotz persönlicher Aufforderung an "Jon" wurde täglich vormittags und abends nur von 8-10 h die Heizung eingeschaltet, obwohl es kaum über 10 Grad Außentemperatur gab. Im Schlafzimmer war die gesamte Beleuchtung defekt. Die Gesamtwohnfläche aller 4 Räume mit Flur und steiler Treppe liegt bei etwa 38 Quadratmeter. Das Doppelbett hat nur 1,40 m Breite. Im Bad trocknen wegen fehlender Heizung die Handtücher nicht und es ist dort immer feuchtkalt.
Schade um die unkomfortablen und raren Ferientage. Wir bitten daher um Rückzahlung der 3 nicht genutzten Tage.

"This is a lovely cottage for 2."
The only reason I have not given 5 stars is the difficulty with wet weather. The hallway would benefit from a hard wipeable floor instead of a cream carpet and the bathroom needs a heated towel rail to help with drying damp clothes. Otherwise it is comfortable and very good value.

"The description is somewhat misleading as the property is not detached but joined to the owners house."
The lack of control of the heating was strange ( the owner controlled it). Also the wifi is no existent phone signal poor too something to bear in mind if you are dependent on your devices! Having said all that we did enjoy our stay despite the bad weather!
Very pleased you enjoyed your stay in spite of bad weather. I'm sorry you felt the description of the property was misleading. The holiday cottage company is rectifying for us. Blaenpant Bach is fully separate from the adjoining house with its own entrance, parking space and small garden. The heating is not separate but we are more than happy to regulate this to visitors' needs as and when required. Thanks for your constructive feedback.

We were so relaxed and felt away from it all in this peaceful environment. It is walking distance to Newport Centre with pubs and cafes. So close to the coastal path and some fantastic walking routes. Walks around Parrog beach also a highlight. Enjoyed a couple of days out to Barafundle Bay and Tenby - Pembrokeshire is truly beautiful. This lovely and clean, cosy cottage we highly recommended with beautiful views and welcoming owners - the sunset in the evening from the lounge/bedroom window was beautiful.

"The garden area was very small so we were disappointed there was no real area to relax in after coming back from a day out."
The fridge freezer in the kitchen was small and very difficult to access.
Thank you for your feedback. The owner is sorry for any disappointment you may have felt. The garden is sufficiently large enough for a table and two chairs and guests can also relax in the cottage’s very comfortable sitting room. The area housing the fridge/freezer will be reconfigured in the near future, making access easier.
