What our customers say about their holidays

  Linda Cottage provides everything to support a lovely holiday in this quiet village on the island.

  From the moment we walked down the path surrounded by the spring blooming Clematis and into the cozy warm cottage our stay was made perfect. I am a regular customer of Sykes Cottages renting their holiday let’s 3 or 4 times a year and can definitely recommend the cottage. It has everything you would expect with the added benefit of a double lower bunk bed that can prove really useful for families of 5. In addition there is a very well stocked reasonably priced convenience store open until 9pm in the evening that is located less than 1 minute walk and a friendly cozy pub just 10 minutes walk away… what more could you ask for. The Village Inn at Bembridge is a must, make sure of an early visit during your holiday as you will definitely want to return there! The friendly owners of Linda Cottage made us welcome from the very start and we’re kind enough to post a flask I had foolishly left behind… nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely consider booking this cottage in the lovely village of St Helens when we next visit the IoW….

  I had a wonderful break at Linda Cottage.

  It is a very comfortable property with everything you could need in it. I had some contact with the owner via text and she was ever so helpful without being intrusive. The village of St Helen’s is quiet but that was exactly what I wanted. Even so, it had a well stocked shop with post office, a nice pub, a nice couple of restaurants and an amazing second hand/rare bookshop. And it is within walking distance of the sea which I loved! I cannot recommend it highly enough especially to people travelling on their own, in a couple or a small group/family. I remember reading others say that the staircase is quite narrow and that I would agree with - I would imagine some people would struggle with it, especially getting luggage up to the bedrooms. I also think that a family of 4 might find the lounge a bit small. And anyone sleeping in the main bedroom might get disturbed by the shop being stocked up first thing in the morning. But these are very minor points, none of which took anything away from a lovely holiday.

  We had a fantastic Christmas break at Linda Cottage.

  The team at Sykes were really helpful when we made the booking, checking out a couple of queries we had about the property with the owner and getting back to us promptly. Suzanne was the perfect host, arranging for the cottage to be decorated for Christmas and leaving us some delicious, and very welcome treats! She was in touch throughout our stay, checking in with us to make sure we were happy with everything. The cottage itself was charming - cosy, spotlessly clean, warm and beautifully decorated and furnished. It was really well equipped with everything we needed to self cater. The position of the cottage is fabulous for walking, with lovely beaches at St Helens, Seaview and Bembridge on the doorstep. Our dogs loved the daily walks and we appreciated being able to bring both of them. We cannot recommend this beautiful home highly enough, perfect for couples or up to 5 people, and hope to be able to return soon.

  We immensely enjoyed staying at Linda Cottage.

  Suzanne was so helpful with updates and little texts before arrival and during our stay. The cottage is charming and very comfortable, with bucket-loads of character. All the little touches at the cottage, from the beach-themed mugs in the kitchen to the cushions and the decorations, added to its welcoming feel. Coming from a flat in London, I've been missing cooking on a gas stove and, as weird as that might sound, particularly enjoyed having one during our stay! The location was all we wanted it to be: quiet, close to a beach, easy to drive to/from and park at, close to a supermarket for grocery top ups. We definitely recommend Linda Cottage for your stay at the Isle of Wight.

  We had such a lovely stay at Linda Cottage.

  The cottage is very charming and the decorations and furnishings are exquisite. It was a cosy and comfortable fit for 2 adults and our 3 children - all of whom were absolutely delighted with their welcome chocolate! St Helens is a lovely quiet village, which is a great place to stay. It has it's own beach a few minutes drive down the road, and it's very convenient for Sandown/Shanklin if you are interested in the tourist hotspots. Our host Suzanne was very attentive and we hope we get a chance to stay again. Thanks
