Helen was friendly and helpful but not intrusive. She dealt with the one small issue we had really quickly. It is in a peaceful situation but not too far from Ryde and Osborne House( which is well worth a visit). We had a fabulous stay here

It is a very attractive property, very well maintained, and has a very nice garden/patio area overlooking a lovely green field where some sheep and horses sometimes graze. The property is about 10 mins in the car from the Fishbourne Ferry Terminal and all the attractions of the IofW are within easy reach. We can highly recommend for a great holiday.
