The position is very good, near the center but in a quiet spot. The room was really clean, right temperature, beautiful bed, and they also provided us with some sweets and drink to enjoy. Truly recommended! 🫶

    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 🥰
