Our stay in Newport was fantastic. Really really an amazing place. To start, Malcolm responded to my late request as soon as he could (while traveling) and made a special effort to get the place ready for our arrival. Even though it was a couple hours after our arrival in Newport, he obviously worked hard to ensure we could enjoy our stay.

He suggested a stop in the Newport Arms as we waited, and what a call that was. We loved that place and had a great time. Malcolm even offered to pick us up when we were ready. I refused as I felt it was almost too kind.

Then we got to the place. Wow. It is big, clean, homely and with stunning views of the ocean from the living room and veranda. I just loved this place. Malcolm and Ann Maree live above the space but were totally respectful of our privacy and didn't kill us for having a BBQ a little late one of the evenings (sorry if that was cheeky).

It took us a bit to find the quick path down to the beach but either way, the walk to the beach and town is very pleasant and it is just a really nice area.

Finally, the communication with Malcolm was always great and we felt so at home here. I would love to go back again and would recommend this place to anyone. Further than that. I will be telling friends and family about it for quite some time.
