“Lovely scenery, a wonderful welcome gift, friendly owners and a great golf course on the doorstep.”

- Mr Gillan, October 2020
Mr Beevor September 2020

“The owners were very welcoming, friendly & helpful”

- Mr Beevor, September 2020
Miss Lund September 2020

“The cottage was really clean and Dawn and Scott left some lovely treats for us which was a nice surprise, and they were helpful in talking to us about where to eat.”

Hot tub was fab, garden was beautiful. Only thing to bear in mind is that there are very limited pubs and eateries in walking distance. Where the Sykes website states that something is close, or round the corner, it is but only if you drive. This didn't impact our stay but would have been useful to know in advance. The cottage is in a great location, minutes walk from a beautiful beach with stunning sunsets and the one good restaurant which is close, The Hut. This is a must visit and advance booking is essential. The cocktails are amazing and the food is fantastic.

Mr Heron-edmends August 2020

“We were expecting a hot tub not an inflatable which due to mobility issues could not be used by all members of the party.”

Whereas a conventional hot tub with steps on the outside and seats on the inside would have been great. I can fine no mention of the large number of steps which need to be negotiated to access and leave the accommodation, although in the description it mentions the accommodation being on one level which is technically correct.

Mrs Ward February 2020

“This is a really lovely two bed property attached to the owners home however you they leave you to it and we had full privacy.”

They left a lovely welcome basket and bottle of bubbly in the fridge which was a nice touch. This is a high spec property; it did feel like a luxurious stay away. Only tiny gripe is there is no dishwasher. It’s in a really beautiful part of the Isle of Wight with fantastic walking on the doorstep and a pub called The Waterfront with the most amazing sunset views a five minute walk away.

“The cottage was lovely, immaculately clean and well equipped for our stay.”

The owners are very nice and really helpful. Thank you for everything.

“Lovely owner Lovely place to stay nice and quiet and in easy reach of everywere on the island.”

Very clean with large rooms and plenty of outside space. One of the best cottages we have stayed in.

“We had a lovely a wonderful time and the hosts were superb.”

Mr Redford July 2019

“Well words are not good enough to explain the thoughtfulness that the owners gave to us and details they have gone to to make a holiday so good.”

We would give them 98% out of a 100. Nothing was too much trouble for them and also good to have a laugh with. So many little details they have gone to to make a holiday enjoyable, Would we go there again, Yes,Yes,Yes and Yes again. We have used Sykes for the last 4or5 years, but nothing has come up to this standard before, a example I asked for the heated towel rail to be on and it was attended to within 10 minutes just like anything else. Usually you deal with a cleaner and could take 2 days. If anybody wanted more details please offer them our phone no. Yours Ellen and RockingRobin Redford.

“Immaculately presented”

A lovely warm welcome from owners Scott and Dawn. Spacious & spotlessly clean accommodation with everything you need plus a hot tub. Walking distance from Totland beach & the Water Front Restaurant, excellent base to go & explore the Island. Can't recommend the accommodation more highly.

- Chris C, July 2019
Mrs Jacks June 2019

“The warm welcome and the supply of essentials when we arrived.”

The fact that we had somewhere to be comfortable when the weather was not too good. Endless hot water and warmth. It was also good for us to know that the owner was available at a text if we needed her. It all meant that we were able to enjoy the holiday in our own way.

- Mrs Jacks, June 2019
Mrs Ellison May 2019

“Really good hosts.”

“Great location, fabulous accommodation What's not to love?”

A beautifully restored period property, spacious rooms and great quality furnishings. With the beach nearby and lovely walks - the perfect retreat. The owners couldn't be nicer and we came away happy and relaxed. Will definitely return!

- Meander98987, March 2019
Mr Gore October 2018

“Our holiday was relaxing and comfortable.”

Sunset is very well maintained, very comfortable and clean. We were given a warm and freindly welcome from Scott and Dawn. The facilities are excellent. The outside areas are available to use. Although our holiday was late in the year the weather offered us some time to sit outside but in the full summer months this cottage would offer exceptional facilities to relax all day with the use of the barbecue and chiminea. The cottage is easily accessible for exploring the island and it is a short walk to Totland beach and promenade. The ferry from Lymington to Yarmouth on the island means it then takes a only short drive to the cottage. Great. Will definitely stay there again. Thanks.

- Mr Gore, October 2018
Mr Harris August 2018

“The property was great and Scott and Dawn were really nice.”

The property wasn't quite as well equipped as we might have hoped, but space is limited and Scott and Dawn were very helpful in providing additional equipment when asked. We had a fabulous holiday and would thoroughly recommend this property.

“Great Place for Relaxation”

A versatile space, ideal for 2 couples, with a beautiful huge lounge area with books and argument inducing board games. We made great use of the various furnished outdoor spaces and were amazed by the variety of wildlife, birds and especially the cheeky red squirrels. An excellent base for exploring the Isle of Wight – really close to coastal walks, beaches and eateries. Although useable, the driveway and top garden area were undergoing a few tweaks when we visited – probably expected given we were one of the first to use the facilities but the welcome basket more than made up for this.

“WOW!!”

Wow!! A beautiful, unusual period building. With it’s colonial features, varandas, wainscoting – it feels like a coastal retreat for the interior designer in me. Although hidden off the beaten track, the beach and amenities are close-by. The private veranda with BBQ and chimnea (supplied with wood which was much appreciated) Living on-site, the owners were helpful and informative if required but not intrusive. Will definitely booking again soon for a little more ‘us’ time away from the kids

Safari

Safari hosts two lovely ground floor apartments in the delightful Totland village, on the Isle of Wight's beautiful West coast. Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering spectacular unspoilt scenery, these properties are ideal for groups of friends and couples. Sunrise and Sunset are two stunning chalet-style properties that ooze character and a quality finish. Presented with tropical plants all around, they exude a colonial, 'out-of-Africa' feel. The safari theme is carried through both properties in the pictures hanging on the walls and the beautiful private decked areas outside. Blending together old and new, you get a sense of the original building as you step through the rooms, with modern day fixtures and aesthetically pleasing furnishings proved easy on the eye. Sunrise provides good wheelchair access from the road and has a large wet room for those who have limited mobility. Sunset offers plenty of choice for sitting out with its large front outdoor area featuring a BBQ and access to the decked veranda via most of the rooms inside. Sit out on the secluded decking area to soak up the sun and enjoy a couple of glasses of wine through the afternoon. Continue drinks into the evening and head down to The Waterfront pub where you won't be disappointed by the food, service and stunning scenery. Take a trip to Colwell Bay and sample 'The Hut', a popular seafood restaurant providing delicious Mediterranean food and a must visit while you're in town. The spectacular beaches of both Totland and Colwell Bay offer a range of activities, whilst a pretty footpath will take you to Freshwater in ten minutes where you will find its golf course and an excellent starting point for walks along the Tennyson Trail. These are two wonderful cottages in a relaxing, tropical setting providing a haven for bird watchers, cyclists and walkers and offering the ideal base for exploring what the Isle of Wight has to offer.
