Ty Newydd Reviews

Stephen
The house was perfect for our party of 14. The bedrooms and number of beds worked well and the outside space at the rear was great for games. The pool is on the small side but big enough for us and a nice temperature. The hot tub was excellent. Some areas are a little tired like the woodland area, the paving around the house and some of the games equipment but overall the house provided what we needed for a great family holiday.
Ty Newyddis a lovely house but the downstairs is tired & in need of an upgrade but comfy & homely . The upstairs bedrooms & bathrooms are lovely . The views & Bird life are amazing & the beautiful field at the back of the house is really good for young ones to run around on & the pool & hot tub are good & looked after daily by the owners . The flagging around the outside areas is a bit dangerous with uneven & loose flags which is a little risky for people with poor mobility. The other negative is the kitchen is invaded by a lot of flies so keep food covered at all times . Although I have pointed out negatives we had the most amazing time on our stay celebrating my 70th & ages ranged from 2 72 but just felt the price during school holidays is a little high when you bear these issues in mind but you can't put a price on memories & we made some special ones at Ty Newydd . The owners are lovely people & would be there to sort anything out that they can . I just wanted this to be an honest review but if you are aware of these issues then don't let them put you off . We would return again but outside of high season when price not so high .
The owner was on site to welcome us and showed us around the property. He was available throughout our stay if needed and had provided starter items,e.g.milk, tea bags and a super cake to make us feel at home. There was a plentiful supply of towels and hot water and the pool and hot tub were serviced each day. The facilities were spotless and we could not have wanted for more. Our family of 15 ranging from 2 80 years enjoyed every minute of our stay and were sorry to have to leave. A first class property and a delightful host!!
Angela
Fantastic holiday home. Lovely pool and hot tub which were well maintained. Good facilities and great family space. The beds were all very comfortable and water pressure excellent for all the showers. Perfect holiday home. We enjoyed the peaceful countryside setting. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.
The property is beautiful but the outdoor flagged area could do with some TLC. The flags are also very uneven and lose in parts which can cause issues for people with mobility. Other than that it was absolutely perfect and we had a fabulous time.
Lovely house we stayed for my daughters 30th birthday weekend and had a fabulous ... Lovely house we stayed for my daughters 30th birthday weekend and had a fabulous time we didn't want to go home everything you could need is there except maybe a hairdryer the owners were lovely too and the cake left for us on arrival was delicious
Jeanette
Absolutely a fabulous home, Arwel is a great host We had a great time, in the pool and hot tub . Fantastic views Needs a little TLC paint etc nothing much Maybe a new cooker, as there are no numbers, temperatures on the dials. So we had to cook with by trial and error. Would love to go back again
Christine
Fabulous holiday home, we had a wonderful stay there. Comfortable living areas and well equipped kitchen. Very comfortable beds with good quality bedding. The kids loved the pool, adults the hot tub and the games room was a bonus. The owners were there to greet us when we arrived and gave a short but informative introduction re the facilities and were always available for advice. Would wholeheartedly recommend this property
Excellent property nice and clean. Plenty of activities for all family. Helpful owner.
Catherine
We had a wonderful stay in this house celebrating a big birthday. The house had everything we needed, was comfy and immaculately clean. The pool and hot tub were great fun and well used by the adults and children. The children loved running around the huge gardens and playing with the balls and games equipment that are available to use. The views from the house are beautiful and there is plenty of space inside for a large, extended family to relax. Highly recommend!
Alison
Property was lovely if had to have a negative check in at 17. 00 to late and check out 9.00am to early. pool was lovely hot tub great didnt realise there was a little cottage to let next door to the property thought we was on our own could be overlooked in hot tub and no loud music at night in hot tub due to having neighbours in the let next door would have liked to have known about the small let so close but otherwise was nice to have all the family together plenty of rooms and bedrooms cake on arrival was lovely
Christine
Absolute best place weve stayed! Lovely house with everything you need. We couldnt of picked a better place for our family for my sons 18th birthday for us as a family to celebrate together. The kids were fully entertained with all the activities and us adults had a lovely relax in the pool, hot tub and had a lovely bbq. Hosts were lovely, helpful, very attentive and made sure our stay was perfect. Beautiful house thank you so much and thank you for our cake left for us it was delicious x
Thomas
This is an outstanding property, the best place we have stayed in. Owner Arwel was extremely nice and helpful. The massive garden was great for playing games with the included equipment, with cows and views nearby to look at, very secluded and private. Drive was very big so cars were secure. Pool and hottub was excellent, clean and always warm. Rooms were all made up nice with plenty of bathrooms. Kitchen was large and perfect for a big group we had 11. We do not have a single complaint and would happily stay here again and again, highly recommend.
Diane & Barry
We all had a wonderful stay at Ty Newydd from a warm welcome and tour of the property off Arwel to discovering all of the excellent facilities, literally everything we could possibly want. The four teenagers we had with us made extremely good use of the swimming pool hot tub and the two acres at the rear for cricket rounders and badminton. The property inside is very spacious extremely well furnished and decorated ,and more than amply supplied crockery cutlery and cooking utensils. The games room with the pool table and table soccer was also a big success. A very nice touch was a delicious Victoria Sponge cake left for us, much appreciated as was the charcoal left for the BBQ. On maintenance generally excellent ,under the rim of the swimming pool had some green staining and some flagstones on the rear of the property were loose and very slippery when wet. The begonias around the property were beautiful and a very nice addition. Many thanks to Mr & Mrs Arwel Jones for a great stay.
Family of 14 9 adults, 5 children enjoyed a family birthday at this house. It is set in a very quiet area, very peaceful. Everything was perfect. Kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed the pool and games room and also the hot tub was very popular. House was very well equipped, gardens were lovely. There are some really nice walks in the area. The owner Arwel was very nice and helpful at all times and also with information on hill climbing for the more energetic in our family! Very good experience for a large family getaway. Complimentary cake went down a treat!
Antony
Absolutely fantastic property with great facilities and friendly helpful owners
Veronica
Property very well equipped and beautifully situated . A wonderful holiday enjoyed by three generations of our family. Very friendly helpful owner. Many thanks for a lovely holiday.
Kirsty
Everything was great but flies were a bit of a problem downstairs.
We had a lovely 4 generation stay at this cottage, kitchen well equipped and facilities great. Loved the pool and hot tube.
Lesley Frances
We had an amazing weekend celebrating my 70th birthday with the family. Facilities were all really good, property was spotlessly clean. Setting was really good with lots of outdoor space to let everyone let off steam in the fresh air. A really good find.
Very enjoyable stay. The pool, hot tub and outside space were a real hit with both the grandchildren and adults. Lovely remote setting, beautiful views, quiet location.
Sharon
Fabulous bank holiday weekend even the weather was in our favour. Arwel met us at the property and showed us around and we were even gifted home made cake on arrival. The pool was a hit with the grandchildren and the hot tub was a hit with everyone. Hugh garden for football, cricket and a shed full of games equipment to entertain everyone. Never been in a property with so much kitchen equipment and utensils etc on hand. The views around the property were amazing which we sat and viewed whilst having the bbq. Loved it.
Sharon
A warm and friendly welcome from Arlwel Owner, the homemade chocolate cake was an added bonus. The views of the countryside were amazing. The house had everything you needed , though I must say at times it was a little chilly but not too cold to light the log burner so I recommend some cosy blankets. The beds were very comfortable. My whole family loved the pool and the hot tub. We even managed to enjoy a couple days of family fun games in the garden, as we stayed over Easter, my younger grandchildren loved the Easter egg hunt we did in the garden. We all had a fantastic time at Tynewdd and one day we would love to return. Thank you to Arlwel Jones for being a lovely host . Sharon
Lorraine
Lovely warm welcome. Well equipped kitchen. Everyone enjoyed the pool. A fire guard would have been useful with log burner and having small children with us
Myself and 14 family members stayed at this lovely cottage to celebrate the January birthdays. We had a wonderful stay and the cottage was gorgeous! Couldnt fault it. The pool was a great size and the hot tub was amazing. Plenty of space for us all and had everything we need. The hosts were great and responded to any requestsqueries. Would definitely return!
This lovely old extended property worked well for the 15 of us staying for 3 nights but it would have been really helpful to have seen a floor plan of bedrooms when I booked, to know where to sleep the different age ranges & family groupings. The bedroom walls were quite thin & one of our party had a bad cough which kept others awake. I'd recommend taking earplugs! The cooker dials have no numbers on them, particularly the ovens they have been rubbed off over the years. If I'd had a manual it might have been easier to judge temperatures and to see how the left hand ovengrill worked. It was very much 'hope for the best' which wasn't easy as I was cooking lasagnes & garlic bread for one meal. Also, when putting the right hand or left hand 'small hobs on, the large hobs came on at the same time! We washed drinking glasses by hand after managing to break 4 in the dishwasher. There was a drying rack, but no water catching tray to put under it so we put towels underneath & kept rotating them. There were no cords to be able to close the venetian blinds in the kitchen & dining areas. Not a problem in the winter, but when bright sunlight is streaming in...? The indoor pool, with the shower right next to it again, a floor plan might have been handy, to know this? was very popular with the youngsters in our party. The outdoor hot tub was accessed via the pool area & was lovely to use. I'm sorry that this all sounds quite negative, but the above are all things that I would like feedback on if I were running the place. A 3 night stay is not nearly long enough to do this beautifully situated property justice. We'd definitely return, but for at least a week next time .And at a warmer time of the year, to take full advantage of all the other outdoor activities supplied by the owners.
Angela Karen
This was a Christmas holiday week away with 12 Adults and 1 child and 1 baby. The house was in a lovely remote part of the Welsh countryside, which is what we wanted. The house was huge and we never felt on top of each other. We preordered our food to be delivered. We wouldnt do that again. This was a mistake as many items were not available. There was a beautiful decorated Xmas tree and some lovely garlands around the fireplaces. The house had a lovely Christmas feel. The pool was a tad on the cold side but was used a couple of times. But the big winners for us was the massive hot tub and the pool table in the games room. My only criticism was that maybe a rubber mat or carpet runner would have helped around the pool table, as sometimes the ball could come off the table and damage the ceramic tiles. The bathrooms were all lovely and clean and the showers were lovely and powerful. The family bathroom was as big as a ballroom! All the bedrooms were tidy and bedding up to standard. One bed room had a little mould but other than that all the sleeping arrangements were met. There was plenty of space with a huge fridgefreezer and a washer dryer. The kitchen was large but getting a bit tired. The 2 dishwashers were great and in constant use! The toaster needs replacing as it took about 20 mins to do 2 slices and the utensils also need updating. We struggled to carved the meat. Also a few of the glass items had chips in and we struggled with the door and temperature on the oven. Overall, we had a lovely time and the area was beautiful and we would definitely go again. Next time we would go in the summer so we could take full advantage of the extensive grounds. The owner was also very helpful and accommodating. We would definitely recommend.
Alison
Just returned from a weekend with the family omg amazing the whole experience the owner was there to greet us and show us how everything worked etc loads of storage in the kitchen. Eveything you needed the there equipment wise the other thing missing was an air fryer the other thing I would say that would of completed the stay no christmas tree, it evened snowed whilst we were there the kids and adults loved it
Had a fantastic weekend here. Property is great, has everything you need. Super clean and great hosts. Thanks very much
The property is absolutely stunning, in a beautiful and secluded area. The house is pristine with all that you could possibly need. Plenty of towels, hand wash, tea towel, toilet roll etc and an abundance of utensils and crockery in the kitchen. The pool and hot tub are both immaculate. Highly recommend this beautiful house.
Such a beautiful spacious property with plenty of amenities. All rooms were very clean, the kitchen is fully stocked and the grounds are huge. Plenty to keep everyone entertained! Would highly recommend
Michelle
Fab property. We visited Aug 2023 for our annual family get together. 3 generations. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the hot tub. The huge garden hosted a family football match and the views were stunning. Arwel was a fab host and hand to help with anything. We had a motor issue and both Arwel and his son came to the rescue. Amazing week, will certainly look to return.

This holiday home was amazing, from the beautifully designed and stocked kitchen to the gorgeous indoor pool, we went with 4 kids from 7 15 years and they all loved the place, the pool table was a big hit and the shed full of outdoor toys was a magical touch and made the kids time out in the amazing garden even more fun. The house is very spacious and warm with gorgeous views from every window, the owners were fantastic we can't thank them enough for sharing their beautiful home and grounds with us, we had an amazing holiday in Wales.
Ty Newydd is a great venue for a family group. The grandchildren loved the freedom to roam and play ball games on the field.

This house looks way better in the flesh. The pictures don't do it justice. it's absolutely beautiful with loads to do. It is very very well equipped with everything and more that you would need. Owner was very friendly too.

This was the best holiday cottage I have ever booked. The kitchen very well equipped and the whole cottage was a high standard of cleanliness. The pool and the jacuzzi were a bonus and so well looked after. There was a friendly welcome and explanation of house keys, use of pool and jacuzzi and recycle. I cannot recommend this highly enough. It is highly likely we will return. The directions to the cottage worked extremely well for all the car drivers.
