Beautiful stable cottage
Sally met us at the property on the day we arrived. She was v friendly and helpful. The property was clean and v welcoming. Sally couldn’t be more helpful. Lovely property to take dogs. We had 3 and there was a big field to walk them in behind the property. It was our honeymoon and they gave us a bottle champagne! Will definitely go back. It was as in a beautiful area with 2 pubs nearby. We recommend the Blacksmiths pub for food. Overall first class.

Lovely place and very spacious for 4 adults.
Peaceful Location and great for exploring the island. Ideal for dog owners as there is a large field on site where you can let them run. The 2 single beds were unfortunately quite uncomfortable with noisy metal frames and poor mattresses. They are also too short for tall people. A washing machine & hoover would be nice to have too. Apart from this we all had a super time & would not hesitate to book again. Both Sally & the owner very really helpful & welcoming which was great.

Lovely stay in a fabulous location and comfortable, spacious cottage
We returned to the cottage after our first stay last year because it was so lovely and comfortable. This time we also used the cottage next door for our grandchildren, who absolutely loved it. The cottage itself is in a great rural location but nevertheless only 10 mins drive from a supermarket and Freshwater Bay if you need a takeaway or food. It's also just a quarter of a mile from a bus-stop to Newport in one direction and Yarmouth in the other (if you don't have a car) so therefore ideal either as a personal retreat or alternatively, a central location to travel to other Isle of Wight attractions. We had a wonderful stay and once again as per last year, were greeted by a wonderful host - thank you! I look forward to staying at the cottage again next year.

Great location for covering the island particularly West Wight that we live. Property was great - had everything you could need. Only negative was the metal framed single beds,creaked a lot and the mattresses were uncomfortable. Doesn’t detract from a great break though.
