About this property
Found in the beautiful coastal town of Newport, just under a mile away from the serene River Nevern and its estuary, is this beautiful property sleeping up to five, ideal for a fun family getaway to the beach or exploring the beautiful Pembrokeshire coastline. Craigluscar is located on a quiet cul-de-sac off the main road and has been renovated to a high standard, whilst still retaining a traditional cottage feel, achieving the perfect balance of contemporary and homely. Relax on the leather sofa in the elegant sitting room and enjoy the company of your loved ones after a busy day exploring the Welsh coast, or choose to fall back on one of the two plush chairs, enjoying a complimentary Netflix movie or reading a book whilst the gas stove-effect fire warms your feet. Cook up a delicious home-cooked meal in the large kitchen / diner complete with all the essentials including a dishwasher to help with the washing. For the coffee connoisseur there`s even a Nespresso machine. Resting behind is a useful utility room, where you can make use of the washing machine and tumble dryer during a long stay; this room leads on to a large wet room with a wall-mounted shower seat, ideal for any guests with mobility difficulty. When you're ready to settle in for the night, choose from one of three bedrooms upstairs, all with Hypnos mattresses, Egyptian cotton sheets and decorated with stunning neutral décor and complete with ample storage for your belongings. To the outside, there's an enclosed garden space, accompanied by seating, a perfect place to unwind on a warm summer's day. Craigluscar is a great honeypot location within the town of Newport, surrounded by a range of shops, country-style pubs, a pharmacy, and a post office. Walk over to The Castle Inn, where you can indulge in local Welsh beer, cider or botanical gin or, if you're feeling creative, check out Newport Gallery (Oriel) showcasing local artists. Just a short walk downhill is Newport Parrog Beach, but be sure to check out the incoming tide times so your day doesn't get cut too short. A longer walk away is Traeth Mawr, a glorious beach and popular tourist attraction filled with canoes and kayaks for excellent water sport activities. There's a number of outdoor activities to experience, including horse riding at Crosswell Horse Agency, along with golfing, cycling and canoeing. The nearby market town of Cardigan is the perfect starting point to begin a tour of the many beautiful Welsh beaches in close proximity, including Mwnt Beach, Poppit Sands Beach and Tresaith Beach.

Would I recommend this cottage to other people âmost definitelyâ. This is probably the most well equipped Sykes cottage that we have ever stayed in. Maggie should be very proud of it. Thanks for a lovely stay, Harry & Pam

When we walked in it was absolutely lovely and better than we expected. Maggie the owner greeted us when we arrived and couldn't have been more welcoming. It is such a cosy and peaceful house we felt rested after our long journey straightaway. There were added touches of a bottle of wine, bread, milk and lots of other useful things in case we had forgotten to bring them. It was close to the centre of Newport and and a short walk to see the lovely scenery and cliffs. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there. Thank you Maggie!
