• "Fabulous holiday home!"

  Plenty of space for three generations, comfy beds, one of the best equipped kitchens EVER! Lovely view from the balcony. Great location close to both the water and the cafes and shops of Newport. Living room would have been a bit of a squeeze for all of us but fortunately we weren’t all in there at the same time. Thank you - we’d love to come back in the summer.

  We are so pleased you all had a fabulous week and thank you for your kind words. We look forward to welcoming you in the summer. Property Owner

• "Wonderful accommodation for 8 guys to enjoy a walking holiday."

  Lots of space to relax and chat and whilst we ate out for lunch/dinner, breakfasts around table in kitchen area were great. The setting was great with the sea views and everyone was taken with the location, easy walking distance to the pubs and cafes plus access to most walks. The cars hardly moved !! Definitely recommend the accomodation and the area

• "Lovely well equipped cottage."

  Spent our time with our children and grandchildren to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary. cottage was very roomy and the children loved the garden. One blip with the oven but on a call to the owner, an electrician was sent straight away. Lovely holiday and within walking distance to beach, shops and pubs and restaurants.

• "Lyndale is an excellent large space which accommodates a big group with ease."

  We have just spent 5 nights there in mid-May 2024, and loved both the house and the very welcoming village of Newport. Driveway took 2 cars, our 3rd car was parked on the road just in front. The kitchen is very well stocked: glasses, crockery & cutlery aplenty. Large welcoming kitchen table will easily accommodate 9 folks and more. Superb fridge & freezer. My only tiny point for the owners: the drainage in the back Double En Suite bathroom is slow, both from the hand basin, and from the shower/bath. At first I thought there might be a blockage. This did not seem to be the case - when I removed both plugs the water shot down the drain with gusto. The shower/bath plug has a mesh basket attached which really slows down drainage. Once the plug is lifted out, the bath drains very rapidly. The slow drainage from the hand basin is more of a mystery, perhaps a dose of Drain Unblocker Gloop might assist? In summary, we all loved our stay in Lyndale, and I would say that it's the best equipped house I have ever rented. The Ground Floor Shower area is a stroke of genius, and we found the house & contents absolutely spotless. Huge thank you to the owners.

  Thank you so very much for your kind words. We are thrilled you enjoyed both Lyndale and Newport. We totally understand your drainage issue. There seems to be a frustrating design fault. Many thanks again. Property Owner

• "We chose Lyndale in an area we know well."

  Short walks into the village and to the sea make it an ideal location. The layout of the house, terraces and lawn make for a very comfortable stay whatever the weather. Newport sands and the golf course are close by as are other favourites like Cwm yr Eglwys. Thank you Sam and Richard and thank you for the bottle too!

  We are so pleased that you had a lovely time. Thank you so much for your kind words. |We do hope that you enjoy the rest of the summer. Property Owner

• "The least welcoming house we have ever rented."

  Lack of clean pans for cooking. Filthy barbecue. Outdoor furniture unusable all cushions soaked when we arrived. Latest arrival time and earliest departure time we have ever had. Will not use this property again.

  Thank you for your comments, we are sorry to hear that your impression of Lyndale was unwelcoming as previous guests have really enjoyed their stay so it is unfortunate and disappointing to hear that you didn't have the same experience. We have checked our cupboards and found 7 stainless steel saucepans, 3 frying pans and 3 Le Creuset dishes and we are sorry if the previous guests didn’t leave all the pans and barbecue in a clean state for your arrival. The outdoor cushions are water resistant and designed to dry quickly when left in the open air and there is a large storage box to keep them in after use. We’ve found the seating is quite comfortable and usable even without the cushions. You may be pleased to hear that we have now changed the check-in to 4.30 and check-out to 10am. Thank you Property Owner

• "Only minor glitch is the door key/lock which is beginning to fail."

  Otherwise a wonderful house which feels like home!

• "Great, social house- fab space and facilities."

  We really enjoyed our stay, loved the sun trap at the top!! We would definitely come back as a large group. Only suggestions would be some dusting as lots of cobwebs up high- lamp shades etc and the advert made it sound like the beds were zipped together to make doubles but they don’t- they are only pushed together with single covers. Thanks for having us

  Thank you so much for your suggestions. Cobwebs will be dealt with. I am so sorry. I am sorry about the single duvets. |We have gone down the French way partly because that is what I know but also we do not have the storage for so many different duvet sizes. I arrived today and found your parcel of coasters. Thank you so much for returning them. We look forward to welcoming you again. Many thanks Sam Property Owner

• "The weekend was a surprise 70th birthday treat for Mamgu!"

  And it did not disappoint. The house took three families comfortably. With four bath rooms plus the ground floor wet room and toilet, there was no issues with waiting to use the facilities! The kitchen was well stocked, making the birthday cake was interesting as there was only a tiny sieve for sifting the flour otherwise top marks (I'm nit picking here and it was comical watching them sieving!) A small DIY point, my wife and I had the back bedroom (fantastic view from the balcony by the way) but the bedroom door would not close, the door frame I think has settled and the top of the door needs a little shaving off. The lock for the on-suite door was out of alignment with the receptor - both quite easy to fix. I am really nit picking as we had a wonderful weekend, the first time our family have been together some time, so thank you for facilitating a special weekend.

  I am so pleased that you had a lovely time. The kitchen now has a decent baking sieve and the doors are next on the list. Thank yo so much for letting me know. Many thanks Sam Property Owner

• "The house was great, kitchen exceptionally well-equipped."

  Lovely to have a xmas tree there. Lovely that the house was nice and warm when we arrived late evening. It is a very good place for a large family group - enough bathrooms for everyone, and big enough for everyone to get privacy when they wanted it.
