Cottage sleeping up to 6 in 3 bedrooms, peaceful. 1 mile to Newport Town Centre

Bwthyn Holmws is a cottage converted from a 200 year old barn with all amenities needed for a holiday be it a few days or a month!
The cottage is semi detached (cottage next door with same owner, sleeps 4) and the owner lives down the lane. Each cottage has its own private patio, and this one a lawned area, but guests are welcome to use the grounds on the farm. There is ample parking, and the cottages are situated about 200 yards from the main road, so it is relatively safe for children and pets.
The master bedroom has a king size bed, and the other 2 are each twin bedded. One is on the same level as the living room, one is upstairs and as you can see from the picture is 'in the eaves'. We are always being complimented on the comfort of the beds! The bathroom has a separate shower and a large corner bath, it also has a large cupboard housing the boiler and a washer/drier. The kitchen is full equipped with an electric cooker, large fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, kettle, toaster. There is plenty of crockery and glasses. The living room has a television/DVD and a small stereo/CD. The cottage is fully centrally heated - suitable for all year round accommodation.
The farm is non-working, but we still have land which is farmed, so at times there will be tractors, combine harvesters etc going past, but occasionally, and maybe not at all in the time you are with us. It is generally very peaceful.
This is a 'dark sky' area - there are no street lights at Holmws, and you will see the stars at night. There is plenty of wildlife, particularly birds (from garden birds to swifts and swallows to common buzzards and red kites).
We are in the Pembrokeshire National Park, the only coastal national park in Britain. From Holmws you can walk to the coast path (about 15 minutes) or up to the common land on the slopes of Carningli. Locally we have many ancient woodlands and waterways - perfect for walkers - and many of our beaches are dog friendly too. we are about a mile from the centre of Newport - a village sized town!
Newport itself has all that you need - butcher, wholefood shop, post office, pharmacy, small Spar, iron mongers, gift and paper shops, small clothing shop, hairdressers and a tourist information centre. There a 4 pubs, 3 of which do food, a boat club (member only, but guests can be signed in on request), several restaurants, all in all a lovely bustling atmosphere. Dinas Cross, only 2 miles also has 3 pubs, a cafe, a petrol station, small corner shops.
The town is steeped in history - our Town Charter predates that of London - you may be lucky enough to see the Town Crier, or the Mayor and Mayoress decked out in their red robes and chains. A ancient kiln has been found under the memorial hall which is currently being renovated as an 'interest' site, we have a cromlech, Carreg Coetan, the town houses an amazing dolls house museum - come and explore!
North Pembrokeshire is a Welsh speaking area - but oh so friendly! It is a land of Celts, standing stones, folklore, witches and wizards, tall tales and real history. We have mountains - but more like rolling hills, a softer landscape perhaps than North Wales. The county is surrounded on 3 sides by sea - many many beautiful beaches, some with amenities, some accessible only by walking. Cardigan bay is renowned for seals, dolphins and porpoises. Bring a camera (or phone!) and your binoculars if you have them.
The nearest local beach is Aberrhigian - about a 20 minute walk. Traeth Mawr (Big beach) is a 10 minute drive with plenty of (ticketed) parking. The smaller beaches accessible by car of Pwllgwaelod and Cwm-yr-Eglwys in Dinas are also within a 10 minute drive.
Newport has a links golf club, tennis courts (on line booking). The Parrog in Newport is popular for sailing, kayaking etc.
I could go on and on - but if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (Laura) on 01239 821030 or 07974 789223
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.

Handy for Pembrokeshire Coastal Path
Comfortable and spacious, albeit a little dark. Easy to access from the main road but far enough away not to be disturbed by it. Very dramatic part of the Coastal Path to the West was just a short walk which gave access to almost deserted beaches. Newport just a mile away (but best reached by car) had several pubs and other eating places - just opening up again after Covid.

Just what we needed
Nicely located about a mile from the lovely village of Newport. The cottage is very welcoming, comfortable and very clean. COVID procedures followed to the letter and even in these difficult times we felt very safe and secure. The cottage had everything we needed and our hosts were excellent. The weather turned colder after a couple of days but the cottage was very warm and comfortable. We would have no hesitation in recommending this property for anyone wishing a relaxing holiday or one, like we did, mainly walking on the Pembrokeshire coastal path which is ideal from this cottage. Thank you Laura for a great relaxing week.

Lovely Stay
My mother and I came here for a two-night stay. The place was absolutely perfect. The photos don’t do it justice. The cottage is cozy but very spacious — more than enough room for us and our dog. There’s a sunny private patio in adjacent to the kitchen, which was an inviting spot to have dinner in the evening. Since we were staying in Pembrokeshire en route from London to Ireland, we weren’t in the mood to drive more than we needed. Laura told us about two walks very near the cottage. Both walks were excellent with stunning scenery all around. We also explored Newport, which is a gorgeous little town within easy walking distance of the property. We were sad to leave such a lovely spot. My parents are already planning a longer holiday here for next year.

Comfortable and welcoming
Wonderfully friendly hosts. Called in advance to tell us some ground works had run over due to poor weather and offered number of options including swap to their other cottage. Turns out the digger (and contractor) was the star attraction for my 2 kids on day 1 and had no detrimental impact on our stay. Conveniently located for local beaches, walks and foodie pubs. Safe for dogs and children. Would have no hesitation in recommending or revisiting.

Laura was very friendly and welcoming. She told us all we needed to know and then left us to enjoy our stay. The property was fantastic. Without wanting to be too cliche it was really like a home from home. The cottage was clean and comfortable. It was very thoughtfully equipped, with everything you could possibly need. Close to some beautiful scenery and coastal walks. Newport is a lovely town with wonderful shops and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you x

Cosy property in quiet location close to the coast path.
The cottage had everything we needed and Laura was very welcoming. All equipment worked well and beds were especially comfortable. Close enough to Newport to comfortably walk and 15 mins from nearest beach and coast path.
