We had a lovely stay at Greenbank. The house was spacious, tidy and clean, and we appreciated the extras provided by the host (towels, toiletries, tea and coffee). The property is just a short walk away from a playground , shop, pharmacy and local places to explore, which we enjoyed investigating. Our 4-year-old loved reading the children's books from around the house and the garden was a lovely spot to play in. We paid to have the hot tub, which we found easy to use and great fun. Thank you to Amy for a lovely stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the Old Farm Shop. It was in a lovely location - you could explore lots of beaches and also walk from the doorstep in to the countryside and to the sea. It was clean and tidy and had all the things you would need for a comfortable stay. The hot tub was a great extra! Susie and Sarah were super responsive and helpful. We had a really lovely time, thank you.

We booked this home for one night only to celebrate my husband's birthday with family. The home was big, well stocked, comfy and wonderful to enjoy a family get-together in. Caroline, and her husband Phil, were amazing hosts, and couldn't have done more to make our stay any better than it was. Great rooms, hot tub, fab gardens, easy parking and plenty of room and light.

Lovely peaceful weekend away. The place was very clean and beds and pillows extremely comfortable. Both lulu and russ were very welcoming and helpful. We used the hot tub on the Saturday and would recommend booking this. The location is great - very peaceful and a 5min drive from the beach and pubs in walking distance. We look forward to returning!

It was an amazing family get-together with children. All the rooms were great, and the kitchen was well-equipped with all necessary items. The beds were a good size, and we had nothing to complain about.

Great location. Easy to walk into Ventnor. The house easily accommodated 10 of us: 3 generations. Steve was quick to respond to any queries.

We really enjoyed our stay, the access to the sister hotel’s facilities including indoor and outdoor pools was fabulous and it was very well situated between the beach and the high street right next to the beautiful chine. Loved the Isle with its beautiful botanical gardens, beaches and dinosaur fossils to explore!

Great location close to the centre of town but peaceful and easy parking. Super comfortable beds and an excellent shower.

The site was quiet at the time we stayed there. Comfortable and some necessary items there where we arrived.

We had a lovely week long stay in Emma’s house (myself, husband, 2 daughters and in laws). The house was spotlessly clean and spacious. My daughters loved their own bedroom with bunkbeds and equipment in the shed. Emma was quick to respond to a query I had upon arrival. The house has a beautiful open plan layout and bifold doors which we really made good use of. My only niggle was the lack of standing shower in the main bathroom, as we ended up all using the en suite for showers. But this isn’t necessarily something that isn’t shown in the pictures! But just be aware of this if there are a lot of adults who prefer to shower.

Lovely little cottage with a secure garden. The village has a fantastic little shop for everything you need and a very friendly village pub with great food.

We had a lovely staycation at the summerhouse. It was peaceful, tranquil & relaxing. We found lots of dog walks around & lots of pubs to visit. The summerhouse felt like home to us & our labradoodle. She enjoyed it as much as we did. We will be looking to come back & stay again. It was lovely & just what we needed. Thank you Richard.

I had a lovely short break together with my 12 year old son at Guido’s property. The property is very spacious, bright, quiet, well equipped and safe. We both slept really well and were very comfortable. The property is ideally situated for lots of activities such as walks on the beach, tennis courts, parks, Natural History Museum, the historic dockyard etc. It is very close to local shops, cafes and restaurants. The bus stop is a three minute walk away, with a very regular service providing cheap easy access to Portsmouth and the other areas of Southsea. All my dealings with Guido were 5* and he was very friendly, patient and helpful. This is the perfect spot and home to explore Southsea with children or just to enjoy a beach trip. We enjoyed a very happy few days here. Thank you Guido for having us.

We had a wonderful stay at the Boat House. It really is a stunning location, close to all amenities and great restaurants, its also an ideal spot just to sit and watch the wildlife, we spotted Herons, Egrets and oystercatchers to name but a few! We also rented bikes from nearby 'Off the Rails' and had a great cycle ride along the river to Freshwater Bay. Would have loved to stay longer but hope to return soon.

This is the perfect place for us as it’s quiet and peaceful with lovely views of the Tennyson Downs to the side. The annex is clean, spacious and has everything you need, including two private outside areas where our dogs could wander free on their own. The location is perfect as it’s within easy reach of Totland, Colwell Bay, Freshwater and Freshwater Bay by car but also on foot. There are shops, takeaways, chemists, leisure facilities and restaurants nearby. Yarmouth is also only a short drive or lovely walk away along the coast and then through the woods by Fort Victoria. There are so many lovely walks that you’re spoilt for choice. Andi checked in on us a couple of times and the hosts were responsive both before and during our stay. We feel lucky to have found this perfect spot and will definitely be returning; this is our second visit and we would highly recommend it.

Fantastic location for walking & exploring. The barn is beautifully presented and stylishly furnished. Very spacious. Loved seeing the Llamas on our morning walk with our dog - on our doorstep. The New Inn pub down the road - Victoria’s tip - awesome, friendly, great food at a sensible price - try the venison or brill filets! Our only regret was that we didn’t stay for longer. Thank you team Shalfleet Farm.

We had such a lovely stay at Linda’s place! Even before the trip, communication was super quick, friendly, and accommodating. Linda went out of her way to answer all our questions and offer tips for the area—and kindly offered us an early check-in, which was really appreciated. The welcome goodies (and the cute stickers for the boys!) were such a thoughtful touch. The bungalow itself was perfect for our trip—comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. We even met Linda’s partner Keith on the way out, who was just as lovely—really friendly and chatty. Thank you, Linda, for a wonderful stay. Would absolutely recommend!

Absolutely beautiful place to stay! In a grate location on the park! Spot on would definitely stay again!

Highly recommended! Superb host. Thank you.

Fantastic caravan and a fantastic host. Exactly as described and well stocked with everything we needed. The park is in a great location with a 5 minute walk down to the bay and the facilities and activities on site were also very good. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
