Newport is well known for its deep culture and docks as well as being a stones throw from rural countryside. 

Less than 30 minutes from Cardiff and with direct train links to London, arriving in under two hours, commuting from Newport has never been easier. 

As a vast number of people settle into working from home due to the coronavirus, more people are looking to move a little further outside of the cramped cities to find outdoor space and fresh air. 

Able to get more bang for your buck in Newport, the average asking price for a pad in the City is lower than the national average at £179,075.
