Well equipped cottage in an excellent location. Long stay car park just a couple of minutes away. Close to all amenities and the ferry port.

Great location, quiet but handy for town centre. Useful to have 2 bathrooms. We found the key safe hard to open, even after some wd-40. It would be good to replace it. Kitchen is rather cramped- we kept tripping over the furniture!

Good location for walks and restaurants. Very quiet and peaceful. Easy access to other locations. The cottage was well equipped. Shower very good.

Had a wonderful holiday at this cosy, comfortable cottage in the centre of Yarmouth, minutes’ walk from the sea, shops and restaurants. The property was very clean and well-equipped and I would definitely be happy to stay there again. Parking is in a nearby public car park, with a weekly permit currently costing around £53. However, Yarmouth is well-served by buses (online weekly permit £25) and there is a stop at the end of the road. Highly recommended all round.

Enjoyed the new table and chairs at the back of the property.A couple of the table lamps in the front room had broken shades a bulb was missing from one of them and couldn't find a replacement bulb. We have stayed at Admirals numerous times and will stay here again.

Well equiped nice cottage 2 minute walk from Yarmouth town centre. A very comfortable and plesent stay.

The house was well situated very close to the centre of Yarmouth in a quiet street. A good range of Shops, Restaurants and Pubs close by. Well equipped although some of the decor is becoming slightly tired. Could do with larger bath towels! Parking does need to be arranged in the main town car park close by as it is impossible to find a space on the surrounding streets.

Delightful cottage in a great location a few minutes walk from the shops, pub,. restaurants, pier and harbour in Yarmouth. Well equipped for four people, large kitchen, two modern bathrooms and relaxing lounge. Washing machine available. Parking nearby - you need to buy a visitors permit or pay daily.

A really lovely cottage, very well equipped and both clean and comfortable. We felt quite at home! Great location too.

Lovely cottage in great location. Well equipped. Fridge faulty, gas hob difficult to light; otherwise all equipment worked well.

Excellent holiday many thanks. A few minor issues of which i believe you are aware,such as refuse collection why the bin is not numbered, no up to date calendar for collection dates. Also the stair handrail,and guttering to the rear of the property need attention. We would also suggest an upgrade to the hair dryer. This is not intended as a grumble,as we had a wonderful time.

Admirals Cottage is an excellent holiday cottage and we heartily recommend it to others. We look forward to possibly availing ourselves of its usage in the future.

We found this cottage quiet, clean and well equipped. Perfect for our half term in Yarmouth. The location is great and this really suited us as a family with school age kids. Hope to visit again.

Again we have had another enjoyable stay at Admirals cottage. We did see a problem with the detached guttering upstairs at the back of the property which we reported to the main office and the downstairs toilet which they thanked us for reporting and they would send the maintenance people to sort it out.

Perfect location and really central for parking. With the bus stop at the end of the road (£15 for a 48 hour unlimited bus ticket) we were able to head off to Newport connecting us to anywhere on the island. Lucky enough to have head about the Real Ale Festival and steam railway in advance so got to make the most of that by having no driving to do! Admirals Cottage is really well equipped so cooking a decent breakfast wasn’t an issue. Comfortable chairs in the kitchen meant we stayed up late chatting, playing cards and trying to guess the intro on the random radio channel we found. It was a perfect getaway for 4 friends but would equally go back with children.

This cottage was ideal for the three of us, easy walk into Yarmouth and the common and pier area. Bus station close by for island trips. Perfectly comfortable with plenty of kitchen equipment. Only downside is the parking as you have to purchase a visitor pass but this does allow you to park all over the island for the length of your stay. Previous cottages we have stayed at have provided parking permits.

I think this is probably our fourth stay at Admirals so clearly we are happy to return and no doubt we will return again.The house is like a 'home from home' for us as we live in a mid terrace Victorian cottage.We arrived as foot passengers from the ferry and the house is only 5 minutes walk away and the bus stop is just a 2 minute walk. My only thought is that the front bedroom may benefit from secondary double glazing as it can be quite noisy with traffic noise from vehicles passing down South Street (the back bedroom is lovely and quiet). We had a few minor 'niggles' with the property following our stay last year but these have all been resolved.The only thing that is outstanding is the refuse collection.As there is no big recycling bin at the cottage, we had to take all our recycling to the main carpark (glass/ aluminium cans only accepted) but paper/cardboard and plastics cannot be recycled which is surprising in this day and age..This is clearly a local council and not Island Holiday Homes Issue....

Admirals is a pleasant well equipped cottage. We enjoyed our stay. We have stayed in neighbouring properties in the past so knew what to expect. The outbuildings were a bonus, very useful for storing our fishing gear. However, we did find the key safe very difficult to open and would recommend that it was replaced.

Arrived jet lagged from a transatlantic flight Dishwasher ,,, not working ,,with a cursory note on it to say it was broken .ok but over the course of the long weekend the water at the bottom of the washer turned into a putrid ,,foul smelling mess,,,,,,.health hazard No information in the cottage about the cob which I couldn't get to work automatic ignition broken ,,all weekend using old microwave Small back garden uncared for ,,,weed covered ,,and overgrown shrubs which you have to work your way around and ,,small bench ,,no where for a family to sit door blind broken ,,,,faded grim looking furniture ,,,,cheap foam pillows very gloomy and disappointing instructions for garbage disposal are confusion and filled with erroneous information ,,,there is a suggestion that you may take your garbage home !!!!!!! good location When I was able to get hold of the agency on Tuesday ,,day four of the holiday they were very helpful and kind and the major problems dealt with promptly However this is a holiday rental and should be maintained at a much higher levels The feeling that one gets from the cottage itself is far from welcoming ,,,,,,it is uncared for and sadly this does distract immensely from a relaxing holiday

We had visited the Isle of Wight a couple of years ago and loved it so much decided to revisit the island. As we travel by public transport and ferry to Yarmouth we chose to stay in Yarmouth as the buses to Newport and onward to the rest of the island are frequent. We had chosen another cottage but were advised by Island Holiday Homes that our cottage of choice didn't supply linen - an added burden with no car! I'd looked at Admiral's Cottage but dismissed it based an previous reviews, but this was the only suitable alternative to our first choice. The previous reviews couldn't have been more wrong. The cottage was fantastic from a very well equipped kitchen with full instructions for every appliance (a welcome addition as in the past we have spent a week trying to work out how to operate a supposedly easy space age, state of the art cooker!!) to two lovely bathrooms and even the prominently displayed password for the wi-fi. Admiral's cottage is definitely spacious enough for four people (although there were only two of us) with plenty of crockery, cutlery and glasses and a very good sized kitchen/dining table. The location is brilliant as it is an absolute maximum of five minutes walk from the ferry, and just two or three minutes from the delightfully picturesque two centre and square which has a good variety of pubs and restaurants. It is also very well situated for access to the old railway shared use path to Freshwater with its two eating establishments that are a must for anyone who likes cake! "Off The Rails" is a real gourmet coffee shop and restaurant with fantastic cakes and lunches as well as being open two or three nights a week and is housed in a former railway station alongside the original platform, so is a must for railway enthusiasts. At the Freshwater end of the path, and opposite the nearest supermarket to Yarmouth, is a more 'ordinary' cafe, but equally lovely. This is on the site of the former station, but is in a newer building, though built in keeping with the railway theme. The path alongside the River Yar is a delight, with birds galore, including the song of the elusive reed warbler. All absolutely gorgeous in the Spring sunshine. We had a little trouble manipulating the key box to access the keys to the property, and the staff at Island Holiday Homes couldn't have been more helpful. Had we not managed to dislodge the box cover a member of staff would have come to our aid. Likewise, the booking process was pleasant due to the lovely cheerful staff, who also phoned to ensure that everythings was satisfactory. We are planning to return and hope that Admiral's Cottage is available as we enjoyed our stay so much.

A relaxing holiday, we found Admirals Cottage was in a quiet location and the cottage was clean and tidy with every thing to hand and a plus for us was a comfy double bed. Shops pubs ect just a short walk.

A week spent at Admiral’s Cottage, Yarmouth was the perfect way to recharge our batteries. I took my elderly mother who loved it. The cottage was very clean and the beds soft. It was ideal having 2 bathrooms, as we were able to have one each. My mother, who is 77, found the steep stairs daunting, but she got to grips with them. We had mixed weather but the cottage was always warm and welcoming after we’d been out for the whole day. The kitchen was very well resourced and I cooked for my mother most evenings without any hitches. The front room is particularly comfortable and we spent one day snuggled up and reading our books. The WiFi is decent and it’s always useful to be able to plan your days out and book in advance online. We know the Isle of Wight very well but still managed to find things we’d never done before-the Steam Railway, Alpacas and Quarr Abbey-all of which we’d recommend. Yarmouth itself is a lovely place, with plenty to do. We particularly love the art gallery and the Blue Crab fish and chip restaurant. There is a grocery store a 5 minute walk away and the harbour is a great place to sit and watch the comings and goings. A down side is there is no parking outside the property and the only real choice is to park in the Yarmouth car park, 5 minutes away. We paid for a week’s pass online. This costs about £40. However, it means you can park across the island for free and we made use of this in Freshwater and Newport. You need to factor this in to the cost of your week, however. A minor issue is the disposal of rubbish. It is not practical to take smelly bags of rubbish home with you. We tried to recycle using local bins but there is no where for general waste. This needs to be addressed-cleaners, contractors to dispose of rubbish so it’s not left to clients, would be better. It’s a lovely footage, in an ideal location, and I’d stay there again.

Admirals Cottage provides good accommodation and is well equipped. We were very disappointed on arrival to find only one working bedside lamp shared between four beds. In addition, the battery in the smoke alarm was chirruping repeatedly and could not be silenced. The owner cannot be contacted directly by guests. So we had to contact the agents. Although their response was commendably swift and helpful, the owner was either unwilling or unable to resolve the lamp problem. So we had to make do. The smoke alarm proved to be faulty and had to be removed by the agents' maintenance handyman. It was not replaced during our stay. It is not acceptable to let out a property with these faults. The cottage is conveniently situated in the centre of Yarmouth. Although the rear bedroom is blissfully quiet, there is disturbance from traffic noise in the front bedroom - very disappointing to be woken by that sound. We went on holiday for a rest and to escape from that kind of disturbance.

Very clean and comfortable. Lovely location. Steep staircase so not ideal if you have mobility difficulties. Well equipped.
