    The Holiday home was spotless with crisp white bed linen and towels. Added bonus was its pet friendly which was great. My little dog loved being out on the balcony. There was every essentials that you could need supplied by the hosts. Also provided a folder with details of how everything worked and Wi-Fi password. Beds and the living area were very comfortable. Would definitely recommend this holiday home & the hosts Peter & Georgie were great. A perfect home from home.

    The host couldn’t have been more helpful. The house was quiet, the beds comfortable and Newington Place is a fine old house with the potential to be a brilliant holiday home. The wi fi is good and the little pool table provided lots of entertainment for children. Lots of bars, restaurants and cafes nearby.

    One of the best holiday homes we’ve stayed in, it was an absolutely beautiful house and very clean and homely. It also includes basically everything that you need and had a pizza stone that we used to make our own pizzas one of the nights, it was delicious. Our 4 year old son didn’t want to leave and has said he wants to go back again next year 🥰
