Nice accommodation in good location especially in the Summer when place is livelier. Well equipped kitchen and comfy kingsize bed. Ideal for beach and walking plus bus stop nearby if needed. Two cafes and hotel also within walking distance.

Great location, lovely views over sea and Tennyson Down, well laid out, bright and cosy flat. With a few tweaks to kitchen contents and maintenance to bathroom and furniture it would be pretty perfect. We had a very enjoyable early October week and would definitely think about returning.

Well located with all the appliances (dishwasher, washing machine etc) needed to make the vacation trouble free. The front door required a few initial attempts to unlock it. Key safe (for front door key) was a bit stiff to open but suggest this is caused by the sea air and its salt content. The television was temperamental possibly due to the perceRead moreived poor reception experienced due to the location of the cottage. Bed was comfy and plenty of storage. Hide

Lovely place to stay with plenty of ammenities, balcony (which catches the late afternoon and evening sun) and parking space. It's a few minutes from the beach and access to the rest of the island is ideal. It was our third stay over the last few years so that says a lot about it.

The property was very well presented, comfortable, and we love the location near Freshwater Bay, the Military Road, Tennyson Down, Mottistone Nat Trust, and Dimbola gallery, museum, and Tea Room.

Dont be put off by the travelling tavern double decker bus opposite your balcony. Noise from music and customers was mooted because you are sheltered by the bus. You can also go and join the fun should you so wish. Limited places to eat and the local supermarkets are not as you might be used to either. But adapt and dont fuss and your stay will be Read morerestful and memorable. Hide

Location is good especially if you like sea swimming, down side was a double decker bus that was used as a bar, the top deck being level with the balcony. Plus a potraloo behind the bus, it was however only there for 3 days but comes back every weekend. The shower was very dirty and in urgent need of a deep clean, likewise the dishwasher. The apartRead morement is well equipped and has a lovely side view of the sea. We would recommend the apartment to a friend but point out the above issues Hide
