Isle of Wight: soggiorni in cottage

Lucy was really helpful in her messages, able to give clear information - the cottage was stunning and immaculate. What we didn't expect was the lovely welcome touches of bread, milk, juice, jam, coffee /hot chocolate pods, milk, wine, cereal, beer, chocolates and flowers in a vase. Also really helpful that she left washing pods, dishwasher pods and basic cleaning equipment. This was all such a wonderful surprise and really showed that Lucy cares that her guests are comfortable. We will definitely look to book again to visit relatives on the IOW. Thank you Lucy :)

We had a wonderful week here. The cottage and local area are simply beautiful! Clean, well furnished and well equipped for a lovely family break. Highly recommended!

We had a great stay, house was clean and well equipped. Maria was very helpful and responded to questions quickly. Would stop here again and would definitely recommend to others!

First of all we have to give credit to Ashley who was a fantastic host. Had a minor issue and Ashley responded and dealt with it straight away. It was clear he wanted to ensure his guests had a perfect stay. The cottage itself was perfect and exactly as described in the listing. Extremely spacious and stocked with all the items you might need. The garden and outdoor hot tub/living area is incredible. We were fortunate to have good weather during Easter and I imagine during the warmer months it would be even more idyllic. We had three children in our party and they loved all the space. Location is ideal for exploring the island. We went to The Needles, Shanklin, Sandown, Tapnell Farm and Robin Hill and were never more than 25 minutes away. Highly recommend Ashley's cottage and we can't wait to return one day.

Lovely, clean and well maintained property. Great location for exploring the island but also to just relax and enjoy the hot tub and seaview. Host was very welcoming and always on hand if needed. Would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the island, it is so homely. Thanks again!

Haviland Cottage was a really lovely place to stay - clean, tidy and comfortable. Description was spot on! Beautiful house, lovely decor and very comfortable beds. Plenty of towels both for inside and the hot tub. The grounds were stunning and very well maintained. Lots of different areas - our dogs loved the outside areas. Dogs were well catered for - beds, blankets, bowls etc. Kitchen was well equipped with plenty of crockery, glasses and cutlery. Dish washer tablets and washing pods provided which was a bonus. Was a perfect getaway with our family. All so good, would highly recommend a stay here!

We loved staying at the cottage! It was perfect for our family and had all the things we needed for our kids. It felt very private and peaceful. We were able to check in early and there is just so much to do on the Isle of Wight as a family (even in the winter). The beds were comfy and the floors had heating in the kitchen! It was a dreamy holiday!

We have had a wonderful stay . Julia and James are fantastic hosts , always there to help and offer guidance. The cottage was fabulous. Very quirky , cosy and unexpectedly quiet (due to the central location) . We slept incredibly well. My husband especially enjoyed sitting in the garden in the evening with a glass of wine listening to the water feature. We didn’t use the garden room as only 4 of us but looking to book next year as it would be a great room for the grandparents. Thank you so much James and Julia. We had the best stay and can’t wait to be back. Ruth

Perfect stay for a relaxing break. Peaceful location, great night's sleep and first morning there spotted a red squirrel on the wall opposite. Very helpful host, great communication with recommendations. Phil also rearranged our ferry at short notice as Easter traffic busier than expected. First time visit and would happily recommend and return.

Our host Lisa was incredibly friendly and helpful from the start, providing us with loads of great recommendations for local restaurants and activities including plenty of fun things to do with the kids. The cottage itself was amazing so cozy and full of charm. Our children especially loved the adorable piglet décor, which made the place feel even more special. Everything was spotlessly clean and fully equipped with all the appliances you’d need, whether you’re staying for a weekend or much longer. The outdoor garden space was a real highlight large, peaceful, and with stunning views over the surrounding fields. There was also a huge field where the kids had loads of space to run around freely. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would happily come back again. Highly recommended!

We stayed at the cottage during the week leading up to Easter and absolutely loved our time here. The surrounding landscape along the Yar estuary is so peaceful and full of wildlife, it made having a morning coffee beside the water, listening to all manner of birdsong, our favourite moment of the day. The Kings Manor grounds are gorgeous and we very much appreciated being able to play some tennis on the court by the main house. A welcome basket with goodies, friendly communication and a very uncomplicated check in/out, as well and all the wonderful places to visit on the island made this holiday truly a special experience for us. We would return in a heartbeat.

We all really enjoyed our stay at Pebble Cottage. There were some lovely local restaurants, like the Crab & Lobster Inn. The house was cosy and the children loved the bunk bed!! Thanks guys

We had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect for our family, spacious and beautifully decorated, located in a great area. We would highly recommend

The accommodation has been beautifully presented with great style and comfort. The place is high up and hilly but with beautiful views. We drove everywhere so saved on walking and you can park on the seafront almost everywhere. Ventnor is a beautiful part of the Isle Of Wight. The Restaurants on the sea front are incredible, The Smoking Lobster is a must for a special occasion. Overall thoroughly enjoyed it.

Cute little place right in the centre of West Cowes next to all the pubs and restaurants and just a few minutes walk from the sea.

This is my second stay at the cottage. Perfect location with parking facilities across the road. The cottage looks nice inside and feels homely. Lots of nice cafes and restaurants to choose from. The Lost Mill Bakery on the high street is a must if you like freshly baked bread and sweet treats!

A lovely cottage, with very cool furnishings and overall style. It's a little cold, a little small, and perhaps lacking in modern conveniences, but with a cottage of this unique nature that's not what you're going for anyway. The cottage is a little awkwardly placed on the corner of a main road, but its not particularly busy, and the wider location (Godshill, Niton, Ventor) means there's lots of the IoW's best bits only a few minutes drive away. Def worth a visit if you like staying in more unusual, aesthetically-pleasing buildings.

Wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Spotlessly clean and comfortable, with everything you could need.

Lovely location, pub within easy walking distance up the estuary although the one at the marina is currently closed. Bus stop at the end of the road and are frequent. Very quiet, our 9 year old granddaughter loved it. Thanks for a lovely holiday.

An ideal base for a lovely family holiday. Claudia was a wonderful host, the farm is charming and set up with activities to keep the kids occupied. The cottage was so incredibly clean and had everything we needed. There is a butcher on site and I would thoroughly recommend picking up some meat for the charcoal bbq from there. We got a dry aged cote de beouf that was sensational.

Fabulous house , great atmosphere, walking distance to town (which in fact is only a two minute walk), convenient for local m and s and SAINSBURYS . Beautiful bijou garden with ample space to entertain on a sunny evening. Will definitely be looking at booking again very soon .

We had lovely time this July in Bembridge. Fintray Cottage was close to the beach and also close to Bembridge village centre. We thoroughly enjoyed the big garden it came with. The house has a large kitchen, ideal for a big family or for the occasion of entertaining guests. Will definitely recommend.

This is a high quality well cleaned, equipped and maintained cottage with everything clean and new. Especially helpful for us was the secure and handy bike stand Glyn had built round the corner. The location is perfect for cycling and walking with quiet lanes, paths from the cottage to the downs and the sea, and with a superb village shop and pub a short walk away. So it was perfect for our short holiday. Glyn was very helpful with our discounted ferry tickets and Vanessa concerned we had enough bedding. The cottage is very secluded with trees all around. There is a lovely patio area but it only catches the sun for a short while in the afternoon. But you can see the stars in the dark night sky through the skylight. Lovely place!

We had a wonderful week at Ian’s cottage exploring the beautiful surroundings of the New Forest, and getting out on the water. The cottage is even better than described with lots of outdoor space and an especially well equipped kitchen.
