Stable Cottage Easter break

The property was clean, spacious and comfortable. There were two lovely bathrooms attached the the bedrooms and an enormous kitchen with all the utensils you could wish for.The location was peaceful with a field in which to walk the dog and a little football pitch for the younger members of the family to use when they visited us.The cottage is ideally located between the Yarmouth and 'Middle' roads meaning that you can reach birthstone Forest, Mottistone Down, Brook or Compton beach one way and the excellent Shalfleet stores, Newtown and Yarmouth the other. Near to Newport and Freshwater if you need a big shop.The best thing about the cottage was the friendliness of the owners and the fact that your dog could be off the lead in and around the cottage.Could not recommend it more!

Peace and Quiet

A short stay to visit family on the island. A lovely calm place to stay. Would have given 5 stars but attention required to a few minor details within the rental and listing needs to be clearer that there is no washing machine in the property itself.

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location

Had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. In a quiet location but near enough to visit all the islands attractions by car. Cottage is modern and comfortable, and as a previous reviewer said you really couldn't do better

Ideal location

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.

Lovely cottage

What a lovely cottage, the pictures don’t do it justice, in the middle of the country side but close enough to everything you could need. It is managed by Sally who welcomes her guests with genuine friendliness. Her dogs pop in and out which just adds to the home from home feel. I would definitely return here.
