We had a comfortable & relaxing stay at Wisteria Nook. Set in a quiet location, it was well placed to easily visit many of the attractions on the island. Absolute silence at night was great with very comfy beds. As others have said it is a bit tight to get into the drive but you get used to it. Also be aware that the toilet & bathroom are downstairRead mores past the kitchen which feels like a bit of a trek in the night, although it is lit all the way! *Dogs also not allowed upstairs or on the furniture.

Roomy accommodation with a well equipped kitchen. A generous parking area and a well-secured garden for our dog. Unfortunately, the local pub is currently closed for refurbishment with no reopening date scheduled. This does mean that if you want to eat out, then the nearest pub is a car journey away. Local convenience shop is a short walk away and Read morestocks all essentials. Donkey sanctuary is within walking distance and well worth a visit.. Hide

A great base to explore the Isle of Wight with everything you need to make the cottage a home from home. The beds were very comfy, the shower was powerful & there were thoughtful touches like the nightlights, blankets & coffee machine. You soon master getting in & out of the drive way.

Access to cottage down narrow lane difficult to manoeuvre estate car onto drive. Very steep staircase. Access impeded by stair gates top and bottom. Bed linen immaculate.

The house was absolutely clean and very well equipped! The enclosed garden was great for our dog and she enjoyed staying there!

What a lovely cottage! Absolutely ideal for our needs. Had to sleep my 95 year old father downstairs in the front room, just because of the steepness of the stairs, but that worked ideal with the toilet situation. Garden was brilliant for the 3 dogs, and due to the gorgeous weather we were blessed with, spent most of our time in the sunroom/conservRead moreatory in the evenings. Ideal location for everywhere we wanted to go, dog walks and beaches and very quiet and peaceful Hide

Everything was lovely. The welcome package was a lovely surprise. The bread etc. The parking was big enough for our van Everything was amazing and we all wish we'd arranged to stay longer. It's a beautiful house. And allowing dogs in is a massive bonus. Thank you so much for supplying a beautiful house.

Great location though can be busy on the main road. Walking routes in distance so driving not needed. Getting into the drive hard to begin with but you get used to the tight driveway. Ample space inside with comfy beds and sofas, loads of kitchen equipment, even an airfryer. Shame bathroom downstairs but knew this before booking.

The road at the side was difficult to access at the top end we have a large vehicle and scratched the side when first entering the side road The hedge could be trimmed back either side to make this easier. The floors ,stairs and landing had creaky floors which disturbed the children when asleep. An information pack explaining where things were and Read moredos and donts would have been useful. The conservatory was really nice and a good advantage point to watch the children and dog playing in the garden Hide

Great house - comfortable and homely and fully equipped, close to beaches and the local shop is very useful. It is a shame there is only one toilet and it is on the ground floor - but this would not be an issue if you can go through the night without needing a pee! The doggos loved their secure garden
