Thanks to our new guests for their review, we are so pleased that Newbreeze and our wonderful Port Logan have encouraged you to consider a second visit next year.

Thank you for your lovely Newbreeze, it’s clean, comfy, well equipped & oh so peaceful. Your welcome pack was a welcome surprise too ! The weather has been so kind to us, we have seen Port Logan and its surrounding area in all it’s glory. We have enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the sea, the sunsets, swimming in the bay, and a DVD to watch each evening ! The simple things are the best ! Thank you again, we hope to come back next year.

Ps,

Hi Denise and Nick, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your lovely cottage. It was so nice to stay somewhere that had clearly had some love and thought put into it, as opposed to furnishing it from a skip and squeezing every last penny out of it!
