Excellent property, would highly recommend.Comfy beds, ample kitchen equipment. Great tv. Comfy sofas.Cold initially but once the property warmed up it definitely holds the heat.Plenty of hot water always.First experience of a heat source pump so would have liked a smart meter to view just how efficient it actually was.Would definitely book again

What a pleasure it was to spend a week in Viking. A lovely detached place on the edge of Newport with the most stunning rolling hills view from the rear patio doors. It was a working holiday, and the Wi-Fi was reliable throughout the stay. The kitchen, and other, facilities were perfectly adequate, and the house was well presented and clean. I plan to stay again in the new year. Totally recommended :) I am not a car driver but found the local buses (and occasional taxi) very affordable and reliable.

We stayed at Viking in the summer. It was easy to find, plenty of parking outside the house and when we got there the house was ready for us. It is a new build and was very clean and modern inside. Lovely views from the lounge area and a secure garden for the dog. The family who own the properties were lovely, welcoming and friendly. The house is in a great location for exploring the Island. We hope to return next year.
