Good location for walking the coast and downs, convenient for well stocked local shop and pub. Friendly village. Cottage has potential but feels a little tired.

We found the cottage worked well for us, being in a good location, and the village of Brighstone is a gem. Much use was made of the local shop which was well stocked. Access to local walks was good. If you like peace and quiet, and beautiful dark sky's at night we would recommend it.

Good location in Brighstone. Spacious cottage and very nice garden to sit in. Some parts of the cottage definitely need updating (looking tired). Have visited IOW many times and stayed in several properties - we will not be returning to this property.

Beautiful cottage located next to the owners thatched farmhouse. A really quiet location but just a short walk from the local village with a pub, 2 cafes and a village store. Also very close to the Military Road which in my opinion has the best views on the island. The owners were there should we need them (we didn't) but they never intruded. They Read morewere really friendly on the odd occasion we met in the farm grounds. The Isle of Wight is beautiful. Thank you for facilitating a lovely week away. Hide

Excellent cottage, comfortable and with lots of character. Lovely garden, part of a working farm ideally situated on the more relaxed south west coast. Five minutes to the pub, shop and cafe.

The fact that this was our sixth visit to the Brew House shows how much we really enjoy staying there, and we hope to return in 2026. We are always made to feel very welcome by the owners. Despite getting older with some health issues the cottage and surrounding area still suit us.
