This holiday rental is in a lovely location on the edge of Shanklin. A duck pond, a large field, gardens, all within a few minutes walk. However the house itself had a strange smell on arrival. The towels provided didn't smell or feel fresh, the bed linen was stained also and didn't feel clean (there is a washing machine so we put them through the wash ourselves.) It was dusty throughout. As there was nowhere to put your clothes when using the bathroom other than on the towel radiator or the shelf of the bath, so they got covered in cobwebs. The grill started to smoke on the cooker when we turned it on. For the money we paid, we found this very disappointing.

Lovely place, nice quiet and secluded ,would come again . Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

In an exclusive estate, it gives you privacy whilst also very close to the town centre. You have a large park next door and a large pond. A walk into town only takes 5 minutes and you are 5 minutes drive from the beach. Loved the property and would book again. The property owners were also contactable and were very helpful.

Lovely quiet location ,lovely house

The location of the house was absolutely lovely and the size and layout great but the inside needed some TLC. Blind ends fell off when you shut them,curtain tie backs had come out of the wall and were left on the window sill and the carpets could do with a good clean along with some of the house The fridge was broken inside and had no shelf to stand milk etc.The bed linen had holes in it also. Could be excellent but just glad we didn't go the week after and paid the extra .

Good location for Shanklin centre. Can be walked but the pathways are narrow. The overall location of the house is excellent with good views to the front. Property has its own parking space which is excellent. There is only a stone/ slab yard to the rear with no view due to high wall of property behind and property fence. Garden furniture dirty and didn’t want to open the BBQ. Cleanliness / tidiness not that great and sofas uncomfortable. En-suite shower to the top bedroom very small. So consider before renting. Coffee mugs chipped and not that many in the house so we bought our own. Despite looking relatively new the washing machine soap dispenser was mouldy and needed to be cleaned before use. Definitely in need of some TLC by the owner.

We enjoyed our time here very much, it was a great base for touring the island, the setting is ideal and peace and quiet is perfect! The only down sides were, the cottage needs a little more work with the general cleaning with things like the sky lights and blinds, the ants in the hall and living room were not nice and the garden furniture and the bbq don’t seem to have been cleaned for months which was a shame. Overall though great place to stay would love to come back again, oh and the guest book that was mentioned was no where to be found.

A lovely town house with all the amenities of being at home. Well placed for all interesting locations.
