This property is lovey large house, in a fantastic location between old town Shanklin and Shanklin sea front both we walked to on many occasions, about 15mins to the front and 10mins to the old town. There are plenty of eating places, restaurants and take always within a few minutes walk from the house. The house was lovely and clean on arrival, with plenty of towels and everything we needed to make our stay perfect. As mentioned in other reviews the road along to the parking is tight but we have a very large car and managed it without to much of a problem, the neighbours all seemed friendly. We had a fantastic time and will definitely return.

A beautiful home, had a lovely stay. Most things we needed were provided and the house is well maintained, but shocked there was no coffee maker even though it was listed. We bought a caffetiere and left it there. It is advisable to bring a fan as windows need to be kept closed due to the very noisy neighbour and 4am seagulls - lovely as they are, they are loud! Take great care driving out onto main road, a blind exit. A big struggle to vacate by 9am with a baby and toddler, we felt under pressure and accidentally left things behind in the rush. Not being able to check in until after 5pm and having to leave by 9am feels as though we were overcharged as we missed the best part of a day. One of the keys doesn't work for the back door, we had a struggle trying to get out. Overall, a nice place, worked well most of the time. (I don't suggest you publish this review, I just wanted to bring some things to your attention).

We spent 2 weeks at Kenmare and enjoyed it greatly. It is tastefully decorated, comfortable, very well furnished and considering the current restrictions we'll equipped. There is plenty of room for a family, the playroom is a great idea stocked with a TV, wii, dvds, board games and a comfy sofa. We would give the house 9.5/10.

Beautifully decorated cottage, spacious, clean and with everything you could want. Carpets seemed new as so soft and clean. Decor was lovely. Furniture very comfortable and so much space in the whole property. Kitchen had everything you could need. They even supplied hand sanitiser, soap and washing up liquid as well as milk and cakes left for us. The large parking space was a bonus and the garden was lovely with plenty of chairs and table for outside dining when weather permitted. Table tennis table was folded away but easy to get out and put back. Wii games and board games for us and granddaughter to play. The location is excellent, 10 mins walk from the beach, two mins from town and 5 mins from good choice of restaurants. Shanklin Chine is also 10mins walk away. We walked to Sandown a few times, approx 30 - 40 min walk. Kenmare Cottage is lovely and if visiting IOW in future, we would definitely stay here again if able.

Very nice house well kept . Only two complaints shower not very powerful but worked sufice and the neighbours have a hottub in the small garden and were very noisy with loud music until the early hours of the morning.

A stunning holiday rental,perfect for exploring the whole of the island. The house was immaculate, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need and more. Full Covid measures had been taken and we all felt safe and reassured by this. Off road parking is a bonus but a bit tricky as access is via a narrow road with small maneuvering room if you have a bigger car. Lots of outside space if whether permits with garden furniture and table tennis table.

Comfortable, clean, well thought out decor, dog friendly, great situation, amazing property well done

A well presented, immaculately clean house with loads of space,everything you could ask for was provided, this was a lovely place to stay and would recommend it to anyone and we hope to return in the future.

Kenmare property is a great property in Shanklin. Very close to the main shopping streets and restaurants. Only 10 mins walk from the esplanade. All rooms are good size and decorated to a high standard. Very comfy beds and bedding options if more/different options needed. The property is on a main road and parking is at the rear of the property, the access road is quite narrow but we managed ok. We had a great holiday during Aug 2020 and would recommend Shanklin, IoW and this property to any family.

Our second stay here and as before cottage is lovely, spacious and well furnished. Dog friendly ( great doggy pictures on walls!) and location central in Shanklin and walk to beach. Parking tight at back but manageable. Our go to place on the IoW.

The cottage was great, spacious, well furnished and dog friendly. Parking tight at the back but ok. Loved the house would stay again

We loved our stay. The house was beautifully clean and stylishly decorated and the play room was ideal for the boys. The location was ideal for the beach and town too. Crossing the main road was a little tricky with the wheelchair but with parking for 2 cars and great access at the back of the property, this didn't prove problematic. Would definitely stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kenmore Cottage, and highly recommend it as a base for an Island holiday. Great location for the beach and town. Accomodation roomy enough for 7, including 3 older children who enjoyed their own sitting room. I can't think of anything the owners hadn't thought of, and we have already booked for next summer.

Gorgeous property in Shanklin town. Well equipped throughout. THE MOST comfortable beds and pillows after a long day sight seeing and meeting friends who live in nearby Sandown. Two happy teenagers Wi-Fi available throughout the house. Will be booking this property again in the future.
