Absolutely amazing property.. Greeted on arrival by the owner who gave us a tour of the property. Felt the property had been cleaned to a very high standard. Provided everything we needed for are stay and more. Extremely quiet and wonderful views. Plenty of extra touches including hand soap, washing machine products, tea and coffee provided. Could not have wished for more.

The cottage and holiday were fantastic, what was disappointing was that when we booked with Sykes i then wanted within 24 hours to cancel the booking but was told that no refund could be given.. No cooling off period, ok it may be in your terms and conditions but i will not be using Sykes again or recommend them to friends or family

Coming from the Isle of Man I wondered about coming to Isle of Wight, but although a very different island it was a very interestiing place.. With many lovely walks , & plenty of things to do. The cottage was excellent , very comfortable a lovely position easy to reach all areas. Although we did get lost a couple of times ,it meant we found some lovely thatched villages & places to eat. We were impressed with the tidyness of the whole island, but found seaside towns a little tired.

The holiday cottage was perfect.. We managed to have a short walk every evening to see the surrounding views. The cottage is situated in the middle of isle of weight meaning it wasn't far to travel to all of the great attractions on the island. Would most certainly return to the island and this wonderful cottage.

The only thing we were not satisfied with was the fact that Sykes charged us a booking fee twice when we booked the cottage for 2 weeks.. We do not agree with this policy. We challenged this when we booked and explained that we use Sykes a lot but were still told we had to pay a double booking fee. In the past we have booked with other companies for 2 weeks and only had to pay 1 booking fee. When you book for 2 weeks it is only 1 transaction so why should you have to pay twice? The cottage itself exceeded expectations. It was spacious, clean and well-equipped. The views were lovely and the whole complex well-maintained. Steve Harvey was there to meet us and explained everything when we arrived and also spoke to us before we left. The central situation of the cottage was an added bonus as it was never very far to anywhere we wanted to visit. The weather also contributed to the success of the holiday - only 1 wet day in two weeks. We would certainly return to the cottage again.

Because the cottage is so remote it would have been helpfull to be able to get essential ie milk and bread from the owner/landlord..

Beautiful secluded spot central for most of the island..

Mr Wardlow

An absolutely brilliant cottage, although its more like a bungalow.. ideally situated centrally on the island about five minutes from Newport. Travelling to all the major coastal towns is so easy from here and only 20 minutes from the Cowes ferry terminal. The wildlife around us was fantastic and we had a great time just watching the red squirrels, pheasants and foxes running around and the buzzards flying overhead. The cottage is well appointed, very clean and well maintained. It has almost everything you could need, the only extra in the kitchen, would be a dishwasher as it has sleeping for six it would be a great addition. All in all a fantastic holiday.

Cottage is in the centre of the island in a very rural position.. It was very quiet and peaceful with a lovely outside area where you can sit and have meals and soak up the sun. It was very clean and had plenty of room, there was even a choice of books if you ran out of something to read. This was our first visit to the island and will certainly be back and will book early to make sure we can book this cottage. Mr Harvey was very friendly and was readily available if anything was needed. Sighs all round when we left!!!

This cottage rated amongst the best of the cottages I have stayed in and was so comfortable. It was easy to get around in, with every appliance you could wish for. The owner greeted us on arrival and was available at all times. He even said a personal goodbye to all his guests.
