What our customers say about their holidays

  The arrangements were organised very well and we met Mr Brady at the allotted time.

  The cottage was comfortable for the two of us, it would have suited a couple and a child, but I think four people would have struggled. We did not cook during our stay, but the kitchen equipment seemed to be satisfactory, although it would be very useful to have a small freezer, even just for making ice within the fridge. A bit more shelving space in the bathroom and a larger shower head would also be useful. But the very hot water was ideal. We used the cafe next door for coffee/tea/Sunday lunch - a roast carvery and for a breakfast. All very good. The walk into Yarmouth is not far, which again is a bonus. There is a small stretch of beach that is slightly difficult to walk on due to the stones and if walking at night, you do need a torch. All in all we had a very enjoyable week and this was an ideal quiet base to get out and about to see the Island.

  Well what can I say.

  It was everything it said on the package. 5 minutes to the shops, beach,bus station, train station.Doctors & Chemist. It is compact & bijou for two adults & one child that is old enough to sleep in a top bunk. Which is a magnificent spectacular man made very safe in deed, that any child would have great fun sleeping on it.The oven works great. The shower you will not want to get out of. With it being on the back of the building you look out on to a small gravelled court yard. I think the big advantage being it is very very quiet & peaceful.Which we preferred. we would definitely recommend this set to any one. Rosalyn,David & Poppy our Toy Poodle.

  The Snug is so beautifully finished.

  It has been well thought out and the space is quirky and cute at the same time. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped and we had a lovely welcoming basket. We sadly had issues with WightFibre digging up the path outside The Snug from Monday-Thursday on an evening. We tried to contact Sykes to ask why we weren’t warned and WightFibre were adamant that they had told all residents. Tuesday night was awful with very loud roadworks until 1am. It was so bad that we looked at somewhere else to stay for the rest of the break. Being told about the roadworks prior to our stay would have been helpful as 2 evenings were spoilt by noise and made relaxing impossible. Such a shame as we really needed rest!

  Here are the pros and cons we found.

  Pros: Excellent location; Clean; Well decorated; Well maintained; Good local information provided in the flat; Off street parking. Cons: Mattresses very uncomfortable, thin and giving no support; Very small bathroom; No microwave in kitchen; L-shaped seating area extremely uncomfortable, very high and no good for watching TV; Incorrect address given in email sent by Sykes, told us it was 25 when it is actually 24, resulting in us parking on the next door neighbour's drive! Instructions for retrieving key not very clear, didn't state that each flat had a different keysafe, and that there were numbers almost on the ground corresponding to each flat; Only a tiny mirror, no full length mirror.

  The apartment was good for us.

  We wanted a quiet place to recharge our batteries after three years of stress. It was a comfortable base and the sound of the sea on the beach at night and when we woke up made it a tranquil and peaceful place to stay. We had everything we needed and when we did have a problem the owner dealt with it immediately and was very understanding and friendly. Although we didn't bring dogs with us we loved the fact that dogs were made so welcome across the Island and in the Boathouse apartments. For a small island there is so much to see and do. This is our fourth stay on the island but the first time without our children, what a revelation there is so much for grown ups too! We will be coming back soon.
