"This is our second stay here and it is a lovely cottage."
Newport is a beautiful town with pubs, coastal walks, shops and cafes on your doorstep. You can also charge your electric car in the carpark, which is a real bonus!! We will definitely be back!

"The cottage is spotlessly clean , warm and comfortable."
The kitchen is very well equipped, we cooked Christmas dinner here and had enough of everything to enable this .
The cottage is 5 minutes walk into the village on a quiet back street.
The garden is lovely and enclosed , our dog tried unsuccessfully to get out !!
Which was very reassuring!!
Thoroughly enjoyed our 3rd visit here
Susie had so kindly decorated the cottage for Christmas for us , a very nice touch
We will certainly be back

"We enjoy staying at Derlwyn and this must be about the sixth time we have stayed there."
It is always spotless, comfortable and provides the peace we come to North Pembs for. It has character, is close to the centre of Newport and we never tire of walks straight from the cottage.
The only frustration we feel is when the tv tells us the signal is too weak. But this is not really a problem at all.

"Lovely comfortable and spacious."
great garden too. quiet and private place. the 2 new doors to the wc and the bathroom need their catches adjusting. people kept getting stuck inside, or unable to open the doors from the outside one of the lounge table lamps had been mended but fell apart, also the bulb had gone. otherwise the cottage was perfect for the 5 of us plus one dog. the town of newport is gorgeous, loads of handy shops and the whole area truly beautiful with wonderful beaches and walks.

"Overall we enjoyed our stay and have returned several times already."
A few more mugs would be good to make maximum use of the dishwasher.

"This cottage was wonderful."
Very well located for a variety of dog walking. It was warm and comfortable. I would definitely recommend it. Two small things, the ignition button on the gas hob still does not work. And a hose pipe would be useful on the outside tap, if the dogs have been outside for a wee!

"The cottage has some very nice features: the kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances; the bathroom has a lovely shower and bath; the garden is pretty and tranquil; and the cottage is in a nice quiet but convenient position in the town."
It is rather dark (the ancient lightbulbs could do with updating) and the upstairs space is small and a bit cramped with some low side roofs, but this is an old stone cottage.

"Derlwyn was clean, comfortable and well equiped."
The only quibble we have is that it would be nice to have chairs for the upper garden! We would definitely stay at Derlwyn again. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and Newport is a lovely small town.

"A well presented Welsh cottage with a great cosy atmosphere."
Well provided kitchen with just about every implement needed.
Good standard of decoration with furniture matched to the cottage.
We had a dog and so the garden was an added bonus.
The house was in a quiet residential area and we were able to walk to the town pubs and shops.

"The location is great and there was a hot and powerful shower and decent WiFi."
However, decor and furnishings are dated. Felt a bit unloved. Considering it sleeps five there were only three large mugs and a random selection of glassware; ignition on hob broken; logs and kindling provided but no matches; no clothes airer so hard to dry bath towels with no heating. This is a traditional cottage so the front door opens straight onto a cream carpeted dining area; with no rear access this was challenging with dogs and wet weather gear. I have been renting holiday cottages for about 30 years and things have moved on from wire hangers in wardrobes, mismatched furnishings and a 'welcome pack' with a tiny jar of instant coffee! This cottage could be great with improved lighting, updated decor and a bit of TLC.
Thank you for your feedback. Had we known at the time, we would have arranged for an electrician to see to the hob ignition for you. If Covid regulations allow, the owners are hoping to visit the property in the near future, with a view to assessing what updates it may require.

"The lighting was quite poor."
The kitchen lacked a few bits of equipment, as well as a good set of glasses. Otherwise, it was what we expected and was in a good location. It was spotlessly clean, good linen and towels provided.

"There was Very inadequate space for our clothes, either to hang or to put in a drawer."
Very small bedrooms. Inadequate cutlery. We had to wash up after every meal and sometimes in the middle. Not to have a fish slice in the utensils meant not to be able to take a fried egg or other out of the pan. There was no dustpan and brush for our use. Also, the lighting needs improving.
You can publish this if you want to. But I suggest you use it to make things better for future tenants.
