What makes this property unique

NEWPORT BAY VIEW HOME
Guests have access all areas of the property; head outside...The Danish concept of hygge is about enjoying an atmosphere and ambient sense of coziness by capturing the simple pleasures of life. The privacy of the garden provides this space for closeness and within the pergola is seating for close-knit conversation and delighting in the divine creations of farm to table. The surround is a theme of refreshing green foliage, add a water trickle to encourage mindfulness and now you have hygge; think of it as a bit of your childhood. This will be a magical surprise
