Villas In Ryde

What our customers say about their holidays

  We all loved the eco lodge with hot tub.

  The setting is peaceful and beautifully maintained. There is public transport to Ryde and to Shanklin just outside the mermaid distillery which is really handy. The pub is also friendly and serves a limited menu but the food is good. The lodge itself is well stocked with everything that is needed for a comfortable stay. All the appliances in the kitchen worked. Bathroom clean and a lovely shower. Beds were comfortable and fans provided in all rooms as there was no windows to open and they did get a little hot during the night. There were a couple of issues, lamp not working and hooks no longer secure to the wall,that had not been reported by previous guests but Mel was easily contactable and offered to send maintenance around, however we chose to leave the issues to be resolved once we left. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would highly recommend the eco lodges as a perfect base to stay for exploring the Isle of Wight.

  I have only said met expectations because the owner contacted me before we left home to advise towels are not supplied as stated in the details.

  The wood burner is not a wood burner, it's an electric imitation. General cleanliness was not up to scratch, lots of hair on the floor of the toilet upstairs, had to wash most utensils before use as they appeared grubby, and the plastic dish drier on the draining board was very soiled, had to put it through the dishwasher before use. Other than that a general dusting would not have gone a miss. Availability of a hoover would be good. Welcome pack ?, a bottle of red wine ?, most other places we have stayed at with Sykes have boasted a personal hand written note with general information and where to find things + a loaf of bread, orange juice etc, and a couple of other bits and bobs. However, a pleasant property in what we found to be a quiet location and good base for days out of which we had plenty.

  Great location.

  Cleaner than expected after reading previous reviews but still room for improvement as there were dirty tissues and dirt under the beds which I have reported to the owner. Beds comfortable. Plenty of games provided which gave us evening entertainment. Despite saying "Ample off road parking" there was only space for one car and had to park the other one wherever we could find a space, sometimes around the corner. The garden furniture was ideal for eating outside or just chilling after spending long days exploring the island. Grass area may not be suitable if you have small children as it is a lot higher than the patio and is accessed by a plastic step. Considering the price paid some kitchen utensils and bedroom furniture could do with updating otherwise okay. Had a good holiday with the family.

  Spacious property with off road parking but that's as good as it got , very run down area.

  The property could do with some serious TLC. Tatty scuffed paint work which hasn't had a lick of paint for some time, ingrained dirt ,no extractor or window in upstairs toilet. On arrival we kept getting white hair on our feet from downstairs so had to hoover. Garden was run down , didn't use it as over looked from all sides . Nieghbour on right had conservatory full of old mattresses which was the view from the seating area. Was going to put our bikes in the shed but it was full of stuff and locked. Seems like a rush job to rent out and property from house shoved in shed. Duvet covers clean but stained.Misleading photos on line. Quite a lot of money for us as a family. Photo evidence if needed. Still enjoyed the Isle of wight as a holiday destination , beautiful beaches and countryside.

  Absolutely perfect lodge, clean tidy very modern, easy parking, lovely views i really enjoyed the hot tub, shower very good, i really enjoyed our stay and would recommend you to anyone, the only things that weren’t perfect, was the daddy longlegs , i don’t think the green light above the doors worked, needed a small window in the bedrooms , it got a bit stuffy at night, i did open glass door, which helped then all the daddy longlegs came in , the main bedroom doors ( fire doors ) a bit heavy, and needed oven gloves, and apart from the wet weather, you have a lovely small collection of lodges perfectly placed, best holiday I’ve had in years pity my mother in law had to come with us, and a thank you to Mel for returning my calls and being so helpful, Malcolm akhurst
