Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the property to be clean and well-kept, though there was a notable complaint regarding pet hair and mustiness. This suggests occasional lapses in cleanliness, but not a widespread issue.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as its proximity to the beach and coastal walks. The quiet setting with scenic views is also appreciated.
Guests consistently mention the comfort of the property, highlighting the warmth, comfortable beds, and spaciousness that allow for a relaxing stay.
The property is commended for its well-equipped nature and new kitchen. However, some guests feel that the kitchen is small and dated, and there are suggestions for redecoration and updating of utensils.
While guests have mentioned a welcome gift of wine, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful touches to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.
About this property
Glan Helyg is a superb, spacious detached property, close to the heart of Newport and is perfect for families or a group of friends.
Newport’s excellent range of eateries, pubs and individual shops are close by and a five minute walk to Parrog beach, the Nevern estuary and the coast path.
The larger beach of Newport Sands - Traeth Mawr - is within walking distance via the iron bridge and is backed by Newport’s 18-hole golf course.
Behind Newport is Carningli Mountain where from the top, wonderful views of Newport Bay, the Preseli Hills and even Ireland on a clear day, can be seen.
The coastal shuttle bus can be caught in the town, enabling walkers to tackle a different stretch of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path every day if desired. In fact, once guests have arrived, they could forget about using their car for the rest of their stay.
Newport is a beautiful coastal town in Pembrokeshire, south west Wales lying on the River Nevern with a selection of shops, pubs, tea rooms, plus an excellent golf course overlooking the sea as well as a lovely sheltered harbour. Newport lies on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path which is renowned worldwide for its unique landscape and wonderful opportunities to go dolphin and seal spotting. Wonderful coastal walks along the path or in the nearby Preseli Hills with the ever changing scenery are a walkers dream all year round. Learn about history when you visit the mills, craft centres and castles dotted around the county or spend a day at the wonderful Castell Henllys Iron Age Fort where you can learn hands on all about living during that time. See the majestic Shire Horses at the Shire Horse Farm or spend relaxing days on the huge choice of beautiful sandy beaches. All year round this is a perfect location for all the family.

A beautiful and spacious home in a very convenient spot to access shops, pubs, restaurants etc in Newport. Yet, it was quiet and peaceful with ample parking. After a few hiccups with the heating, everything was quickly sorted out with Glan Helygâs friendly owners. Highly recommended and we will definitely return.

I would have no hesitation in recommending this property and plan to re-book when we're next visiting North Pembrokeshire.
