Amazing house, beautiful views. Great for a weekend away with friends, loads to do in the house.

Our group had a fabulous stay. This house has everything a big group needs to have a memorable stay on the Isle of Wight. We loved the tennis courts, proximity to the trails near the water, and a giant kitchen to service us all. The bedrooms are all spacious and there are plenty of rooms to accommodate everyone. We especially loved the game room! The owners are fantastic and were there for us and anything we might need. Thanks for a great stay!

Stayed here with 16 members of the family, aged 10 months to over 70. Games room was perfect, very well stocked kitchen , bedrooms were good, in general the property needs a hug, tired in places. The beaches are accessible by only the sure footed, and we’re not suitable to sit on as there was evidence of rock falls.having said that the coastal walks were perfect

Catered perfectly to our needs which was a casual wedding weekend for our family and closest friends. Had everything we required and more which made the whole experience so easy and enjoyable.
The property owner was absolutely fantastic in helping us with questions and recommendations. Definitely recommend

Our Lawrence family, made up of 23 people (including 6 children) have just spent the August Bank Holiday weekend at St Lawrence Manor. Everyone, from the oldest to the youngest loved it.
Its 11 bedrooms (all with ensuite) spacious lounges and dining areas, large kitchen (well equipped) splash pool, tennis court & games room provided more than enough for all the family. Its location, near Ventnor, was also perfect enabling us to get around the south of the island easily.
The Seascape view, from the Manor, was idyllic and the walks down to the beach were both interesting and good exercise!
The local shop, in St Lawrence village, was only a short walk away and provided sufficient produce and other commodities to keep us going over the 4 days.
We took the Wight Ferry from Lymington to Yarmouth. The drive from Yarmouth to the Manor House, along the Old Military Road, was spectacular!
Most of the family had never been to the IOW so were pleasantly surprised how lovely it is.
We’ll be back!

Really lovely property, excellent communication from Stephen the host. Stephen was really helpful with help and advice with regards to ferry crossings and the local area. At the earliest opportunity contacted me to let me know that the hot tub was out of use, however recommended a company that we were able to rent one from for the week. This was then set up and ready for our arrival, and we were reimbursed for this. The children and adults thoroughly enjoyed the facilities in the house and grounds, especially the pool and tennis court. We all had a great stay and would book to stay here again. Thank you!

I stayed at the manor with a group of 20 other friends, last weekend and I would thoroughly recommend St Lawrence Manor to anyone.
Stephen (who manages the property) has been communicative from the start, providing comprehensive information about the house, being quick to answer questions and solve problems and generally attentive to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Just before we went, a couple of concerning reviews were posted (ref: Tanya and Ellen), which I highlighted to Stephen. We had a conversation about what happened with this trip and their comments were the opposite of what I had experienced with Stephen, so I was confident that these reviews were not an accurate reflection of the manor.
The place is is massive - it took us at least 10 minutes to just to explore the labyrinth of rooms. What makes this place special is the large dining room, sitting room and patio space that means that the full capacity of guests (26, I believe) can socialise in the same room. When you want to splinter off, there are plenty of activities to keep you entertained - table tennis, pool, tennis, swimming, hot tub. It's also super close to the beach. The house is kitted out with all the crockery and cooking utensils you need - we made a vat of pasta for 26 with ease in the huge, catering-sized pots- and there are enough fridge freezers and dishwashers for the house too.
The bedrooms are comfortable - most have an ensuite and those in the front of the house have a great view over the sea, including a few with balconies too.
This is the ideal place for a large family or group of friends. Don't have any hesitation in booking!

We loved our stay at the manor - it's wonderfully comfortable. It has loads of indoors space, the couches and beds are super comfy, the table is big enough to accommodate 25 people at once. The location is amazing, we loved the surroundings.
Unfortunately we discovered one day before our trip that were not gonna be able to enjoy the hot tub due to unforeseen circumstances. The owner sent us a compensation as a goodwill gesture, which we appreciated.
Communication with the host was easy and made the whole process way more pleasant than I would have expected for such a large booking. We're really grateful we got to spend our yearly retreat in such a lovely place.

Perfect house for large families or parties
The property owner was always contactable and extremely helpful prior to check-in and during our stay.
The house was perfect for our group (3 families) because it was massive. It is not a luxury property but has all the amenities you need and a very big professional kitchen. This allowed us to get caterers in to cook for us (also organised by the owner). Our kids loved the tennis court and the pool and hot tub.
It is in a beautiful location with lots of lovely walks and beaches nearby as well as Ventnor.

It had everything we needed, easy to get to the local beach, great pool and hot tub and the games room and tennis court kept us entertained the whole time.

Another fun family holiday at the manor!
Third year in a row, St. Lawrence Manor House is perfectly suited to our needs as a family holiday venue on the wonderful Isle of Wight! So much space, inside and out, great fun on the tennis court and in the games room, could not recommend the manor more and we have already booked our return for 2020! Thanks again, D xx

Lovely house in an idyllic location
Lovely house in an idyllic location. Slept 17 of us comfortably for the weekend. House was well kept and very interesting. Loads of outside space a hot tub and tennis courts. We didnt use the pool as it was June.
Stephen was easy to get hold off, friendly and checking in was easy. Stephen also extended our check out to accommodate for our ferry.
We had a great weekend catching up and the house easily allowed for that.

St Lawrence Manor & Dene
Booked St Lawrence Dene, and it’s sister property St Lawrence Manor with 45 friends for a car club event, and they did not disappoint. Lovely old properties, plenty of space inside & out. We had 30 cars and could fit them all on the large driveways. Hot tubs and pool (Manor) were a huge hit. Bedrooms clean, crisp linen, bathrooms clean. Kitchen area was spacious, plenty of room for cooking and entertaining. All mod cons - TV, Sky, wifi, full laundry room. Quiet part of town. The seaviews are spectacular. Small coves nearby. I would recommend these properties to anyone. Excellent accommodation overall.

Incredibly spacious and well presented manor house
Very spacious, well presented and secluded property, in a beautiful location overlooking the water south of the island. Manager was very responsive on email and provided us with discounts on the ferry crossings from Southampton. The accommodation was ideal for our large party, sleeping us all in individual bedrooms and many had suites. The garden is also deceptively big, with a tennis court and multiple tiers of lawn. There was plenty of space for outside caterers to set up a tent, and the hot tub was great for the evenings. Highly recommended.

What an awesome big home!
The manor was better than ideal for my birthday party in October. A fun trip to the isle of wight with closest friends in and around London. Trains, boats and taxi rides! This manor was bigger and better than anything we could dream of renting in London and everybody had such a great weekend. Clean, well equipped, awesome value for money, helpful manager, easy to book, definitely keeping it in mind for the future!

Excellent!
Excellent time enjoyed by myself and every one of my friends thank you again Stephen! We made good use of the tennis court, table tennis, pool table and hot tub over our extended weekend in September. Walking the coastal paths from St. Lawrence Manor was a delight we'll never forget too. Highly recommended!

Such a fun time with family at St Lawrence Manor!
We loved the look of the house and the area, it seemed ideal for a big family get together (18 adults and 6 children who try to holiday together every other year!), and it was even better than anticipated! Photos can't quite capture the grandeur and space provided by St Lawrence Manor! Hot tub, swimming pool, tennis court and games rooms were enjoyed by all (even the 80 year old in the family!) and none of us particularly felt like leaving the manor or immediate surroundings (St Lawrence and the views from the manor are beautiful) although we did stumble across Steephill Cove one day which was a delight (below Ventnor Botanic Gardens which was also worth a visit for a lovely walk (just myself and my husband while the others played on the beach!)). I have already recommended St Lawrence Manor to friends and maybe one year we will return again ourselves. Thanks again Stephen

St Lawrence Manor a great place to stay
St Lawrence Manor, was a dream booking to help me celebrate my sixtieth birthday, I took my whole family, thirteen of us staying there.
No one could believe how large the Manor was, we were all delighted with the place.
Though a little tired, it made us all feel very comfortable , the swimming pool, the hot tub and games room and bar were much appreciated. Everybody slept well and the week went exceedingly quickly, it was a dream time , thank you.
