Beautiful house in a beautiful location

Everything in the property details is accurate, but there are lots of pluses which aren't mentioned. The huge downstairs seating area has sliding doors onto the patio, and running below the decked area is a stream whose sound enhances the pleasure of eating outdoors. As well as an exceptionally well equipped kitchen, there is a utility room and a conservatory - perfect for drying beach towels. The property has central heating and a woodburner - we were lucky enough to pick a hot and sunny week, but the property would be equally suitable for a winter break. The enormous upstairs attic room has four huge Velux windows with lovely views down over the town to the estuary, and is great for lounging in when it gets too cold to sit on the decking. Should you want TV, there is Sky. The parking area is a big plus too. Newport is lovely, but its quaint narrow streets would be a nightmare to park in. Within a minutes walk there is a tiny local baker - great bread, buns and welsh cakes - a local butcher, chemist, Spar shop and four pubs! The town side of the estuary is tem minutes walk, and the lovely beach is about half an hour down a leafy lane, across the bridge, and along the coastal path. Up past the church and the castle are further leafy lanes which lead to great walking on the Preseli hills. If that all sounds idyllic - well it is.
