The apartment is in a spectacular location with lovely views of the sea and cliffs which are on your doorstep. The apartment is very well furnished and perfect for a 2 person stay. Karen and Robbie are outstanding hosts and made us feel very welcome and their communication before and during our visit was excellent. Highly recommended on all fronts.

Beautiful apartment with amazing sea view. Stylishly decorated and very comfortable with everything you need for a stay away from home.

Lots of places of interest to visit as well, Osborne House and grounds are spectacular. We are definitely going to try book another visit.

Lovely apartment in beautiful location

This lovely apartment was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. It enjoys spectacular views of Freshwater Bay. Early morning cup of tea on the balcony watching swimmers and paddle boarders was a real pleasure. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of storage space in the bedroom. Karen the owner was very helpful in suggesting places to shop and eat. She responded quickly to all of my questions and queries. This was a super place to stay. I would definitely recommend it.

October stay

We adored this property - location is absoutely breathtaking and so easy to sit and eat or rest on the balcony overlooking the sea. The flat contains everything needed and to a very high standard indeed. An additional plus is that the owners keep a close eye and are approachable and kind when help is needed. What's not to love? We really hope to go back one day in the Spring/Summer for longer swimming than we could manage on 10th October!

Clean, tidy, comfortable apartment with Sea views, perfect location. Highly recommended.

The apartment was easy to find and located on the first floor with 2 other apartments on the landing. It had a lovely sunny Sea facing balcony with cushions for the sun loungers. The apartment had everything we wanted with the owners kindly leaving us supplies of tea, coffee, milk, butter, bread, cookies and which was very thoughtful. The bed was very comfortable and we slept really well as the bedroom felt light and airy and had a 2nd balcony facing towards the road. The bathroom was decorated very tastefully and had a wonderful shower which worked well and good lighting provided in the bathroom mirror. The kitchen was a good design and had everything we needed, although we did eat out every night and a dishwasher was also provided. There is a Co-op just 5 mins down the road and a Piano bar and pizza wagon which visited on Friday right by the apartment. Very many places of interest to visit and worth joining the National Trust and English Heritage to take advantage of the favourable membership terms., (We have been members for years). Highly recommended for a comfortable stay for 2. We would love to come back as it felt like a home from home. Thank you very much Karen and Robbie, highly recommended apartment.

Beautiful apartment in a stunning location

This apartment provided the perfect base for a relaxing and restorative break. Our hosts were extremely informative and helpful. Freshwater Bay is a beautiful place in itself but also ideally situated in the West of the Isle of Wight for many amazing tourist attractions. We definitely want to go back.
