We enjoyed our stay in Helen's house. We found the house to be very clean and well-presented. On the evening we arrived, Helen had baked an apple tart for us, which was a nice touch and much appreciated. The kitchen was large and well stocked with all appliances and supplies needed (with the sole exception of a coffee cafetiere).
The bedrooms were large, with comfortable beds, all-white linens and plenty of extra towels, blankets, pillows etc. There was a large kitchen table and dining room table, which would seat at least 12 people. A nice living room with large TV, and a smaller office/lounge with TV, books, board games, video games etc. BBQ facilities outside.
The house was MUCH larger than we had thought it would be from the outside. Definitely enough space for larger families than us. Six bedrooms, I think, with three ensuite.
It felt Covid safe, with hand sanitizers on the wall, and even face masks provided. We enjoyed the outdoor seating and BBQ grill. Showers were hot with good water pressure. The house is five minutes drive from Newport. Westport is about fifteen minutes drive, but there are current roadworks in place. It's close to the main road, but you can't hear any traffic from inside.
We were glad that we could bring our dog with us.
Just a few issues: In the front gravel driveway, there were some old cigarette butts and broken glass in the gravel. Enjoyment of our last evening was interrupted by maintenance work on the boiler, which we would have wished would have been postponed until after our departure.
All in all, we would recommend this lovely house and Helen and Richard as well-prepared, welcoming & friendly hosts.
