  • Carol Jane

    It was obvious a considerable amount of thought had gone into the accomodation and facilities, and the welcome pack was an added bonus. We had all we needed, and more, for our stay, and the owners were very welcoming and helpful.

  • Maxine

    It provided all our needs and is in a very nice setting. Hosts very friendly and welcoming.

  • Tony

    Easy to find and I was pleasantly surprised at just how comfortable the cabin was. All the basic supplies you need are provided like condiment, foil, clingfilm etc. Spacious lounge/kitten. The bed was very comfortable. Plenty of cupboard space. Shower is great, powerful and hot. The owners are lovely and made me feel very welcome. Perfect place to stay and location is central to most of the attractions on the isle of Wight. Definitely one to consider. I myself would definitely stay here again.
