This pretty cottage is set on a quiet residential street in the picturesque seaside town of Newport. It is perfect for a group of friends or a family to enjoy the delights of North Pembrokeshire. Within 200 metres of the front door, guests will find Newport High Street with its great selection of pubs and shops. The sandy beach is just over half a mile away and there is much to do in the area. Get active and explore the countryside with many miles of walking trails leading you along the coastal path or up into the Preseli Hills behind the town. There is a useful bus service for walkers called the ‘Poppit Rocket’ that makes its way along the coast from Newport to Cardigan. With many stops along the way, ramblers can hop on and off where they like and enjoy a car-free day out. Watersports and cycling are popular activities and there are boat trips to book, as well as some superb fishing and golf.

The house is a handsome 19th century cottage that used to house the manager of the local woollen mill. It has been sensitively and stylishly renovated to provide comfortable and spacious accommodation. Downstairs the open-plan kitchen/diner is the heart of the house with lots of space for sociable cooking and eating. The large dining table is set for six next to a wide window and French doors overlooking the gravel patio beyond. There is an additional breakfast bar and a small sofa within the space. Two snug living rooms provide flexible arrangements for lounging and sleeping, with one of them furnished with a sofa bed. The other main living room features a wood burner in the attractive original fireplace. There’s a useful downstairs WC and a utility area equipped with a washing machine, drying area, additional fridge and freezer. Upstairs, the master bedroom is a double with an en-suite shower room. Two twin bedrooms, one with sea views, share the use of the family bathroom with a bath and shower overhead.

Outside there is a level side garden with a gravel area and pretty shrubs. This space is set up with a table and chairs and is ideal for dining outside in the fresh air. In addition, there is a large, elevated lawn accessed via a gate. This is high and steeply sloping in parts offering pretty views across the rooftops to the sea.

Ael-y-bryn was a lovely, bright cottage, with good facilities and in a great location in Newport - just a short walk to the centre for pubs and shops. There were many lovely, coastal walks in the area which we thoroughly enjoyed. We had great weather and as well as the walks around Newport and Perrog beaches, Goodwick and Fishguard and Dinas HeadRead more we also visited St David's, the cheese shop at Pant Mawr (in Rosebush), Pentre Ifan and the garden at Dyffryn Fernant. All the pubs did tasty meals and The Canteen makes great pizzas. All in all, we had a lovely week and everyone we met was very friendly and helpful. There was so many things we didn't get to do that we will be back in the future to continue exploring. Hide

The cottage was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fairly well equipped and plenty of instruction leaflets. Unfortunately there was not one for the gas oven which we needed as none of us was familiar with this type of oven. We reported this on the Monday and someone came to help us with this on Tuesday. The other issue we had was the unusualRead more staircase which at the half way level split giving two narrow half steps and then on one side there were another 5 normal size steps and on the other side only 3 steps which meant these were oversized and shallow. When we first arrived and not aware of this my husband missed his footing and fell. In our opinion the staircase was a bit hazardous. Hide

Ael y Bryn is a very well-equipped and most comfortable cottage in the delightful small town of Newport, Pembrokeshire. The cottage is blissfully quiet but it is within easy walking distance of the Market Street which has all essential shops, from a Spar to a pharmacy as well as a quite exceptionally high quality butcher. There are nice cafes and fRead moreriendly pubs nearby. There are marvellous walks from the house - either up the paths to the open moor of CarnIngli above the town or down the lanes to the sea and the old harbour of Parrog and then on to the Pembrokeshire Coastal path in either direction. The helpful owners live nearby and are contactable in case of any problems, but the cottage is well supplied with all essential information. Ael y Bryn is a wonderful base for exploring a glorious part of Wales. Hide

We had a great Easter weekend at Aelybryn. There was plenty of room for 6 adults and a toddler. It was very warm and comfortable and well equipped . The location is super, a very short walk into the town but quiet and peaceful with only the sound of the brook. Lovely to have space to sit outside and enjoy the sun and the view of the sea. The laneRead more down from the cottage is very narrow but the owners helpfully sent directions which avoid this. Communication and support were excellent. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the many beautiful pictures Hide
