The upstairs toilet in the bathroom had a leak which left a puddle on the floor meaning that we were unable to use it for the first three and a half days. The internet went down for two days. I wish to point out that Caroline went her way to help resolve these problems.

A good sized house for 8 of us (2 families) to spend Christmas together. Rooms were all good sized and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with plenty of cooking equipment, glasses, crockery and cutlery. Nice to find some games and puzzles in the cupboard to play on the wet days when we didn't go out. A quiet location with ample driveway parking. A Read more5-10 minute walk down to Shanklin beaches and very close to the town centre for shops. Local housekeeper was very helpful before and during our visit. Hide

Excellent location and great sized property. Very well equipped. Close to beach and shops. Weve stayed here twice now and enjoyed our relaxing breaks. The en-suite shower was unfortunately out of order for our whole 2 week break which was inconvenient. Also properly would benefit from a new king size bed in the master bedroom. Currently has a doublRead moree which is not the comfiest of beds. Thank you kindly for your feedback, note from the owner - the electrics have been tested and are noted as all safe and working. New medium firm mattresses with memory foam toppers are in place and a new manager is taking care of the garden from 2023. Hide

A lovely big house, enough space for 2 families. It's in a fabulous location. Ideal for our dogs too. The garden was safe, enclosed and huge!

Lovely space in the house for the 4 of us, and the property is in a great location for shanklin old town, the chine, and seafront. However, cars seem to ignore the double yellow lines and gate at the front of the property, as we were blocked in on 2 separate days of our holiday !
