Cottage in a good location and garden very private . Very handy shop opposite in farmyard. It is an old cottage and listed building and very quaint. Very cosy and the separate dining room a great asset. A surprisingly well stocked farm shop opposite catered for most needs. Easy to get around with good bus links a very short walk away. Everyone frieRead morendly and helpful - an enjoyable holiday. Hide

Good position for exploring the south west corner of the Isle of Wight. Bed was warm and comfortable, as were the sofas. Nice to have the woodburner but not so easy to manage it.

A classic old-school cottage in a quaint quiet village. There are loads of original features in the house which really sets it apart from other properties. Great for those who want to get away from it all. The beds were super nice and comfortable! The enclosed garden was really useful to have to allow everyone to run off steam.

Quaint cottage in peaceful surroundings with a lovely back garden. Clean and cosy but could do with modernisation of the bathroom and kitchen. Shrubs at the front of the property obscured a lot of light when we visited recently, but hopefully this will be dealt with by the owner.

A lovely cottage and a nice location, although you do have to take care with the road outside as traffic drives down it at some incredible speeds! Overall a lovely place to stay although please note there is no wifi and if you are tall, then you have to be incredibly careful not to hit your head.

The cottage is in a lovely location in a beautiful village with very friendly people. It was reasonably comfortable although we found the four poster bed uncomfortable. The log burner was a welcome addition on chilly evenings. The back garden was a sun trap and great to sit in late afternoon/early evening.
