A December review states Sea View was closed in November and all issues resolved but they were not.
I have given the owner every opportunity to resolve this and I held back on posting my review but she hasn't even responded back to me.I contacted Sykes about the poor reviews about Seaview as we were arriving 19th Nov 22 for a very special birthday and due to my health issues we needed to be able to cook in the cottage.We were emailed to assure us that when the cottage was closed the owner would attend to all maintenance issues and check all was ok before we arrived.On arrival we found dirty floors with grit all over in the kitchen and utility. Someone had written in the dirt on the kitchen door window. Almost all kitchen bulbs were not working, there were insufficient pans to cook a meal and no welcome pack or log pack. There were no cleaning materials for us to clean the floors apart from a dirty dish cloth and the tea towels left in the kitchen were stained and dirty. In the lounge we found stains on the carpet and a lamp fitting was broken.In the dining room the blind was broken and radiator TRV was broken and not working. In the conservatory a window closure was broken and left on the sill and someone had tried to secure the window by putting a screw in from the outside but it had not worked so anyone could get in to the house. There was a broken bird on the sill and a glass vase that was broken on one side with a large hole with razor sharp edges which could have sliced a child's hand or arm off. None of the lights above the conservatory worked, neither did the majority of other garden lights. The patio furniture was covered up but the furniture was too dirty to use. The downstairs toilet latch was hanging off and the upstairs ensuite could not be used as it would not drain and was flooding the floor. The macerater toilet was still flushing hot water as you actually sat on the toilet, the tap was loose on the sink and the pop up plug did not work so the sink could not be filled. The heated towel rail was not working. Many of these problems had previously been reported so it was clear that nothing had been done while the cottage was closed apart from fitting a new oven. We had to stay in on our arrival day for the welcome pack to be delivered and for an electrician to come and fit light bulbs in the kitchen as it was too dark to be safely used. We also had to stay in on my birthday which was the next day because they were bringing pans over, and a locksmith had to call out because the entrance door would not lock and also the electrician needed to come back. The outside lighting bulbs were never replaced while we were there and we don't know what work the electrician did because he left without telling us. I had to make numerous calls until late in the evening on both days to get these things attended to and I went without a meal on the Saturday because I was not able to cook without the pans. I was told the delay was because the owner did not want to pay to address the problems and I was originally told I should jam a chair under the door to stop anyone breaking in because Sea View was too remote to get any one out. Eventually after much effort and calls from me someone did come out in the late evening on Saturday and in the day time on Sunday and then later that evening but by then my birthday and my holiday had been ruined and I was in tears. I told Sykes straight away about all the issues and I sent photographs of every fault I have mentioned but you have to be aware that if there are any problems you can only deal with the owner because that is who your contract is with. It is not with Sykes. I don't know how the last reviewer was able to message the owner but Sykes told me this was not possible and I was never able to speak to the owner. There were no contact details left in the cottage so I was only able to deal with Sykes and Coast and Country Holidays. Coast and Country holidays did do their best to help but didn't have the authority. It is a shame that photos can not be attached as I have many which confirm what I have said in this review. Sykes had already been in contact with the owner while we were in the cottage so thinking I would hear back from her I left it a while before I wrote a complaint letter to her and sent the photos. Despite this the owner has never even responded back to me so no apology from her for completely ruining my special holiday. I know my letter was received by the owner because it was signed for by her so it is very disappointing and upsetting that this is her attitude to problems. I would never stay here again.

3.5 stars: Initially impressive but sometimes disappointing when you try to do anything practical (e.
G. cook) The positives: Great location Warm and cosy (mostly - radiator doesnât seem to be working in twin bedroom) Lovely view from well-maintained garden Superb garden room Well-furnished, tastefully decorated rooms and decent towels Thoughtful touches such as changing area, board games, OS maps provided etc. Useful information file The negatives: Apart from handwash and half-used toilet rolls in each bathroom, little or nothing was provided: no welcome pack; no washing-up liquid (beyond some diluted remnants); no kitchen roll; no cloths or sponges to clean up; not a single dishwasher tablet; not even a few tea bags or small amount of coffee. The owners should try cooking in the kitchen, because itâs extremely challenging. The main obstacle is the barely-functioning oven: it refuses to work if you turn it up beyond 170 degrees C, and inexplicably requires you to start the timer for it to work in the first place. There is one oven temperature: too hot. Only half of the toaster works. No oven gloves. Microwave not tall enough for us to sterilise our babyâs bottles. Listed as four bedrooms, but there are really only three (certainly only three of the upstairs rooms have beds in them). Similarly, the advert indicates that there are three bathrooms, but there are actually two plus a downstairs toilet. Check-out time is inhumanely early at 09:30, especially if you have a six month-old baby. The toilet in the en suite is absurdly loud and often flushed itself as youâre using it, so itâs effectively unusable at night/when youâve got a young baby sleeping upstairs. Only two food waste bags were provided for the whole week and there was no explanation of how the recycling system works. We put out the bins for collection on Tuesday, which went fine. Some slightly angry men came on Friday morning, looking for waste in orange bags. We noticed the orange bags earlier in the week, but whatâs the point in them if everything has been collected three days previously?!

We have stayed in several cottages and this is by far the best.
Wonderful location with stunning views from the large garden where furniture, a bbq and fire pit were provided. Ample parking and easy access to the property. The ground floor was spacious with everything you could wish for for a extremely pleasant, comfortable stay. Large kitchen with numerous kitchen appliances provided, a games room, WC, utility area which was useful after a day at the beach or walking. Lovely lounge, nice snug area and a dining area in the large conservatory opening up to the patio area in garden. Upstairs the bedrooms are generous in size with one on-suite and a further large bathroom with bath and shower. The owner was extremely helpful in replying to any questions we had and has given Sea View a very homely feel with some lovely finishes touches and a lot of thought, the generous hamper on arrival was very much appreciated. The area itself is beautiful and we enjoyed days on Newport Beach, exploring the delightful countryside and had a day out at Folly Farm. I have no hesitation in recommending Sea View and will be sure to return. Thank you.

Amazing Cottage in West Wales!
We recently spent 7 nights at Sea View Newport over the Christmas holidays and what a superb property it is too. After reading the reviews we were a little worried about the facilities at the house, but the owner closed the property for 2 weeks in November and resolved all issues. We have stayed at many U.K. properties and this by far is the best, especially with the kitchen being so well equipped. We were advised by Sykes to bring certain items just incase - but we didnât need for anything. This house has it all! The only thing you need is an oven glove. We messaged Kathryn the owner a few days before getting to the house as it was much easier asking her questions than asking Sykes. Kathryn was super helpful and provided us with all the information we needed about the property and places in Newport to purchase food etc. before we arrived. The owner has thought of everything and made this house a very comfortable place to stay in. Thank you Kathryn for making our stay memorable. Weâll definitely be back again in the future!

Sea View was an excellent place to stay for our recent 2 week break in Pembrokeshire.
We particularly loved the spacious âgarden roomâ with its sublime view of Dinas island, also the large lawned garden was a treat for the dog. Warning, be vigilant with dogs and little ones. The garden is secured by stock fence and gates to the drive, but there are a couple of single gates that give access to the front and the latches on these are broken â we had a heart stopping moment when our BC managed to slip through these, and escape onto the lane! Newport is a lovely place, with plenty of pubs and cafes â we made use of the Monday morning local produce market, great organic bread, and fresh veg. Just a 20 mins walk along the bridleways. The dog loved the expanse of Newport Sands, just down the road, and the many other stunning beaches around the coast (no restrictions during the winter). So much to see and do nearby, filled our days easily. We had a few issues on arrival, but by no way spoiled our wonderful time away.
