"Before I leave a review I feel I should say that I have rented many houses / cottages over the years so am not a first time renter. On arrival we were met by a friendly agent , who showed us around.Despite the description of the lodge stating two private parking spaces, this we was not true and any time cricket was played no space was available at all. We had to park else where on return home and move car later, not great.High wall in bedroom picture, hides the fact that the other side it is a public footpath that is only waist high,people can and do look in, feel this needs to be pointed out to clients before they book. Sofa was a sofa bed the most uncomfortable thing to sit on, many reviews in the visitor book said how bad it was, we resorted to sitting on the dining room chairs, or using pillows from the bed to aid comfort.All in all I feel I have been very negative about Steep hill Lodge, but if you are prepared to look past all of the defaults, it really is in the most lovely part of the island."

"S14376 is a lovely secluded cottage, and full of the correct amenities. My rating of 7 is because we were unaware of a few things until we arrived. One is that the cottage has a Septic tank. There are notices up at windows re a big drop from the windows, and that there is a large unsecured pond/lake at the bottom. There are many reminders to you to keep your children safe, but I would have liked to have known before I made the decision to book. There is also a note that you can only put the immersion on for 1 hour at a time, so it's best to have showers (electric) rather than a bath."

"Cottage was very clean and spacious and we enjoyed pur stay. However It was a disappointing there was no actual bath as having a young family showering is awkward. There is room for one in the ensuite. The smoke dectector was situated right above our heads so when in bed at night it was a Very bright green colour. The fire escape door on the landing could cause a problem for older children who could just push it open and get out . Ventnor beach is nice and only a 5 min car drive away as with a young family the cottage is too far to walk to with all beach gear in hand."

"Beautifully designed barns situated in a peaceful relaxing countryside location. Our stay was extremely comfortable. It was everything we needed and more than we expected. Good location near to Ventnor. The hosts were friendly and helpful. A truly inspirational stay for us and we will defiantly be staying here again when re visiting the IoW. The fresh bread, butter, milk and other amenities were gratefully received. The whole design and neat touches have all be very well thought through. The dog loved it too!"
