We had such a fantastic week at the house with our friends and children. The layout downstairs worked perfectly for us with the snug room for the children to play in and the main living room we kept for the adults. The location was perfect with everything we needed in walking distance which was ideal with lots of us. Thanks very much!

The cottage was very characterful. However the creaking floorboards upstairs made it Awkward in the night.

Lovely, characterful house and quirky, artistic decor. Beautiful gardens. The driveway needs to be widened, as it was very narrow and awkward to negotiate. The shower had very slow drainage and on first use it was going to overtop the shower tray. We phoned the contact person, who sorted it out the next day. However, these are minor quibbles and weRead more really enjoyed our holiday with 3 generations in wonderful spacioius house and lovely gardens. Hide

Beautiful, peaceful setting with a view of the downs behind and a lovely garden to enjoy. It's easy walking distance to the town, the seafront. Ventnor Botanic Gardens and nearby Steephill Cove as well as the Downs (for the fitter!) so we could enjoy the holiday with minimal use of the car. We love it here!

Thanks so much - we had a wonderful stay in your gorgeous house! We know the Island well and have stayed in various houses over the years, but this was definitely our favourite so far - it feels like a real (and lovely) home.

Cottage is in a good location with lovely private gardens, well equipped. Drive is not good for parking more than 1 car as you will struggle to get out of the car or get past the car when you want to go put. You wouldn't get past with a pram.

A fabulous, spacious property with a beautiful garden to enjoy. The property is very well equiped and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend. Only downside was if you have a large car you will need to reverse up and down a sloping, narrow driveway.

We loved the house, really spacious with great communal spaces and very tastefully decorated. It felt like there was lots of room for 2x families and the garden was wonderful, the kids loved it. It was in a lovely location with lots to do.

Beautiful, elegant and huge villa in Bonchurch. Practically perfect. Only issue is the very narrow and bumpy driveway so dont bring a big car! High recommended. Our second visit.
