An ideal location for a quiet, peaceful holiday. The cottage is at the end of a small country lane with no traffic noise. We slept very well in a comfy bed with good quality linen. The little patio is a suntrap with beautifully scented roses growing round it and we enjoyed eating out there when the weather was suitable. We caught the no 6 bus seveRead moreral times from Star Corner, about a 10 minute walk away, going to Ventnor and Carisbrooke to visit the castle. Hide

A lovely clean and comfortable cottage. Everything we needed was available and the owner dropped in milk bread and local butter for us which was a nice touch. There were lots of local walks for our dog as well.

The cottage is perfectly situated down a quiet lane with beautiful views over to Freshwater from the kitchen window. It is extremely clean and well appointed. We had everything needed for a lovely stay. There is a lot of wildlife around the cottage and a comfortable patio to sit with a drink and watch the sun go down. A walk in shower and a comfortRead moreable bed completed the stay. Hide

Very well equipped cottage, including some food provided for the first day, and beyond, and treats and towels for the dog. Very quiet location (maybe too quiet for some, but not for us), in what for us was the most beautiful part of the island (southern half).
