Clematis Cottage - what a joy!
Lovely property in a wonderful location. We will most certainly be back in 2023 and hopefully Peter and Mandy will be happy to have us again.
The property is in a great location, well stocked with all you need and the most comfy beds we’ve experienced in a holiday rental.

Everything you need
Really great stay, everything we needed as a family was provided. Toys and games for our 4 year old were great fun and the outdoor space was lovely. Seems like everything has been thought of, from big items for children such as a stair gate and cot available for smaller ones, to small touches like the child cutlery and nice range of books. The location is nice, a short walk to the town centre and close to a park and play area

Excellent stay
We had a lovely stay at the cottage in Shanklin. The cottage is bigger than it looks on the pictures, the lounge area is very spacious and ideal for families. The cottage was very clean and has been maintained to a good standard. The location was great you could walk into Shanklin and to the beaches. It was also a great location to visit other popular areas of the island. We all really enjoyed the stay and the communication with the property owners was excellent! We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to come again!

Home from home
The cottage was ideally located for all amenities in shanklin. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our 2 year old son loved the garden, we saw red squirrels and lots of Jay birds while we were here. The owners were always really prompt in responding to us. We really hope we can come back soon! Thank you

Excellent stay at Clematis cottage!
We had a fantastic stay at Clematis cottage. The location was brilliant, a 10 minute walk into Shanklin. The cottage is very child friendly and has a lovely garden. Peter and Mandy were so helpful and left an Easter Egg for each of our sons which was such a lovely touch. We will definitely be coming back!

Highly recommended
We were very impressed with the property and location. The owner’s direction to the property and the maps of the locality were the best we have received from our numerous holiday property visits.
We really enjoyed the walking from the property. Locally there are plenty of places to walk, a substantial number of miles can be covered from the property without the need to travel. The surrounding area in parts is hilly which my be an issue for some but there is plenty of parking down by the sea front for those that either can’t or don’t like walking.
Within 10 minutes walk, maximum, of the property their are numerous pubs, plenty of places to eat and the main town.
Visit.

Perfect child friendly cottage close to beach
This was our first family holiday to Clematis cottage and it didn't disappoint. The cottage was perfectly equipped for our 18 month old son and was extremely clean. The cottage is within easy walking distance to the beach (either via steps or path) and there's a kids playground nearby too. We found the cottage to be very peaceful which is also a bonus when travelling away with children. We can highly recommend this as a perfect place to stay when looking for accommodation on the beautiful Isle of Wight

Lovely house, great location
This was our third stay at Clematis cottage and definitely won't be the last. The cottage is very spacious and as ever spotlessly clean. Within easy walking distance of the old village and beach (though on this occasion we drove as it was Winter!) Good WiFi as well.

A beautifully kept property in Shanklin village
This was a lovely cottage at a peaceful and scenic end of Shanklin. The owners really put time and effort in to creating a lovely environment and we would happily recommend Chestnut Mews to anyone. Thank you Peter and Mandy.

Fantastic ... Cant Wait to stay again
All I can say is Fantastic... From Start to Finish Peter and Mandy where very helpful answering questions etc before we booked. The booking process was very straight forward, and Peter and Mandy send us lots of local information regarding the local shops the week before travel
Our Stay at Clematis Cottage was perfect. The house has its own garden with lots outside toys and even its own playhouse. The house itself is very well equipped and has all things covered and the welcome pack and bottle of Bubbly was a lovely touch. The rooms are all very comfy and the kids even slept pass 6.30 which is a bonus on holiday.
The location is lovely too up a quiet private road but only 5-10 min walk in to the main high street with lots of little shops, cafes and Pubs. The Chine is only 10mins down the road, which is lovely if you go in the evening as its all lit up. Also along the road is the steps to the beach ( can be hard work with little ones as there is a lots to go down)
The location was fantastic to get to all the major Attractions on the island and is great base. We are hoping to return

Perfect family friendly holiday cottage
clear home from home. Peter and Mandy have genuinely thought of everything! Especially for children, stair gates fitted and bed guard provided, lots of toys and a great outdoor play area! Couldn't ask for more. Gray lovation, 10 minute walk to town and beach. We will definitely be back!!

“EXCELLENT PLACE TO STAY.”

If you are considering self catering holiday accommodation on the Isle of Wight, then look no further than Chestnut Mews. The booking process was simple and efficient, the cottage was first class in every way, so comfortable and very well appointed and the welcome pack we were greeted with on arrival was more than sufficient. The location is ideal, just outside of the old Village, private and peaceful and well situated for travel around the beautiful Island. We could not fault it. Many thanks to Peter and Mandy for a very enjoyable holiday.

Perfect !!!
We stayed in Clematis cottage in September. We could not fault it. So lovely to be able to walk into Shanklin for an evening meal. We were delighted to see a red squirrel sitting on the garden fence most days!! We have recommended the cottage to family and friends

Very enjoyable Holiday
We had a lovely stay at Clematis Cottage, the Cottage was very well equiped and clean and tidy.We were three generations staying and our 18th month Old Granddaughter loved the Garden and the toys provided. It is a lovely area with plenty to do for every age. The Cottage is near enough to walk into Shanklin, which has plenty of tea shops and restaurants to visit.The booking was easy and Peter was very helpful to deal with. We would certainly recommend to anyone to stay in these cottages, especially with young children.

Excellent accommodation in peaceful location
Clematis cottage was everything we had hoped for. The accommodation is excellent and the location is very quiet & peaceful, although it is only a short walk into Old Shanklin. It is very well equipped & is particularly suitable for young children. The owners are very friendly & helpful.

Perfect!!!
These cottages are like home from home, very comfortable, with everything you need. It's in a great location, in a quiet part of Shanklin old village, but in good walking distance to the coastal paths, pubs and restaurants that does great choice of meals for every one. To me these are the best cottages in shanklin and I've been going to the Isle of Wight for many years. Love them!!!

“Beautiful, excellent, superb!”
This was our first family holiday with a 1 year and 4 year old. Clematis Cottage was above and beyond our expectations! It's cleanliness, how well it was equipped, from kitchen equipment to toys and DVDs for the children and the personal touches for the children and the adults. Advice, directions and history of the Island in the house pack was very perfectly detailed. It's location was perfect for accessing Shanklin and its beautiful beaches. We had a fantastic time on the IOW not forgetting to mention the weather was sun, sun and more sun! We will definitely be returning to the IOW in the future and most certainly will use Chestnut Mews again.
Thank you Peter & Mandy giving us fond memories!
