We were absolutely gobsmacked when we arrived!! The photos on the booking site do not do the house and it's surroundings justice. Great fun getting there as the roads are country lanes but we enlisted the help of a lovely gent from the shooting range! There was 12 adults, 1 child and a dog in our group.

Family and friends all enjoyed their stay at Newton House. It looks rather dated from outside, but inside is very warm and welcoming, especially with the aga in the kitchen, my favourite room where we held several meals around the kitchen table. All guests had their own room and ensuite bathroom so could not ask for any better facilities.

We had a very enjoyable holiday in Newton House which had excellent facilities for our large family gathering. The property is situated in a very quiet and beautiful location convenient for the beach and also inland walks around the NT properties which are situated very close by. We will be coming back.
