Enjoyed our holiday to IOW, first time. Nice house but needs some care and attention. No curtains in lounge, bit chilly when dark, no outside light so bit dangerous. Sofa not very comfortable, could do with some cushions also bit grubby. Pillows and duvets could also do with replacing...all a bit flat and thin..not a comfortable sleep. No oven glovRead morees...few repairs required in en suite ( which is beautiful) lights flicking on/off, toilet seat loose. Toilet cleaner would be good too! Otherwise ok Hide

Very comfortable house, had everything you need. Tesco around the corner was very helpful. Our party was all adults, but they had some nice touches for young children. The only problem we had was the noise of the rain on the velux windows in the upstairs bedroom which was deafening. Overall very good and IOW is great for a holiday.

We enjoyed our stay at Meadow Glade. Nice quiet location. Garden not child friendly because of bramble & nettles. Rooms spacious especially the upstairs bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Would have liked a lock on bathroom door. Local shops within walking distance.

Modern spacious house and garden which worked well for our two generation family. Recommend Red Lion pub and the Piano Cafe. The Rock at the Albion restaurant is an expensive treat but food is excellent.

Light, airy clean holiday home. Loved the large windows all round and sliding patio doors on the lounge. Surprised there was no ironing board to go with the iron or a hair dryer Ideal location for us as the house is set back behind trees from the road and very quiet plus nowhere is far by car on the Isle of Wight also bus stops outside the house. LRead moreovely to find fishmonger, bakery, greengrocer (selling IOW produce!), coffee shops and other independents in the village. Loved our stay! Hide

It is clearly "pet friendly" but if you don't have pets the smell of pets is definitely there. As a result it didn't feel fully clean to a non-pet family.

Nice cottage, whilst well equipped you can tell its a holiday let, made up of odd & sods rather complete sets, plus lack of lock on upstairs bathroom. Upstairs whilst very nice does have low ceilings, so left with a couple bumps on the head...
