Chantries

Absolutely fantastic house.

Very well equipped. Amazing sound system. The garden is perfect and is an amazing extra room to the house. We were a family of 6 and there was plenty of room for us all.

It was the best rental I have ever had, the house was beautifully equipped we didn’t need any of the extras we took as all provided, it was so quite which we loved.

I would definitely go again although the ferry adds a lot to the price.

Beautiful house and gardens.

Lovely neighbours. Ideal location for the beach, pubs and village shops. Everything you need for a very comfortable, quiet, relaxing week away. House is well equipped, including a BBQ and utensils. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely house in a great location with good pubs and the beach in walking distance.

Garden was great for the dogs, totally secure. Everything you could need was at the house and the games supplied were fun for the evenings. Would definitely stay again.

It’s a nice place and very quiet.

Garden great. Upstairs bathroom is small and if you are tall like me it would be an issue. A few bits of paint wouldn’t go a miss, but overall it is a nice authentic rental where you can relax and Bembridge is nice. Good pub and good shop within walking distances.

Chantries was everything we wanted for a lovely holiday.

It was clean, comfortable & well equipped. Frankie & Andy were very helpful. We enjoyed Chantries so much, we have already booked to return in November.

Lovely house had all we needed will be booking for next year

Amazing stay at a beautiful cottage with everything you could need.

We would definitely return for a future visit to the island!

A lovely holiday home.

The house was spotless on arrival and a lovely welcome pack for our new year stay although milk would have been good to make a cuppa but co op around the corner so not a problem . One of the best holiday homes I’ve stayed in. Very comfy bed. We loved the open fire and appreciated the wood supply . The garden is lovely. We had our dogs with us so was great to let them out for a run around knowing they were safe . Short walk to beach or drive. The Crab and Lobster serve great food. We will definitely return .

A lovely place on the outskirts of a lovely village!

The house, together with its facillities, was really good. Spacious, clean and with plenty of local hints and brochures as well as a good information pack. We had one problem which was solved quickly and efficiently after contact with the owners (many thanks). The village has some great food shops (try No 8 for vegetables and Woodfords for meats and pies) as well as a chippy (only takes cash) and chinese. These latter two are perhaps a bit far to walk for takeaways. Lots of good walks nearby, beaches, village, pubs etc. Public transport to Ryde and Newport. Excellent shop 5 mins walk away that has virtually everything you will need. You can leave your choice of evening meal to quite late as they quite often have reduced price offers! All in all a great stay.

A great place that could be improved with a few improvements,IE toilet roll holders,new baking trays, pillows (stained), More long term taking into account cost would be better beds and comfortable armchairs.

Owner aware of one bed problem. All in all a great place,we were holiday cottage owners and appreciate things take time.

Really lovely property, very comfortable genuinely felt like a home not just a self catering rental.

Great garden for the dogs and a nice touch with the dog bowls and jar of biscuits. Loads of outside furniture if the weather is kind to you with a huge choice of games, books, DVD’s inside if it isn’t! Bathroom upstairs was unusual although perfectly useable, not so great for a really tall person though, thankfully there is the shower room downstairs. Negatives would be no where to store shoes downstairs, not even a basket by the door so we ended up with boots, trainers etc scattered all over the hall floor. No wardrobes although there were places to hang clothes upstairs which was ok for a short stay but wouldn’t be great for a long one and nowhere to hang wet coats etc other than in the shower. Great local facilities, with a deli round the corner and 2 good pubs/hotels within walking distance. Beach was great for the dogs, just watch the tide times as there’s not much beach at high tide!

A really nice home to have a holiday in.

Now that the tree in the garden has been removed, maybe provide a umbrella for shade.

The house was lovely but we were a little disappointed with the surroundings.

We imagined it would be less suburban and that the access to the beach would be a more pleasant walk. Maybe we didn’t read the description well enough but we imagined that there would be easier access to the countryside. We used the car much more than we wanted. We loved the barbecue!

A real home from home, well laid out with three good size bedrooms and a definite dog friendly garden.

You are never short of things to do and the guitar was a brilliant find. Close to shops and a good pub and the neighbours are lovely too. Would completely recommend

We had a lovely stay at this very clean and welcoming house.

The bedrooms were comfortable, bathroom spotless and even our mother could not find anything lacking in the kitchen! The outside space looked lovely, but unfortunately the weather was not, so we couldn’t use it. We would definitely come back.

We really enjoyed or stay and have nothing to complain about at all.

The property was clean in really good repair and the garden was totally secure for our small dog. Bembridge itself is a really nice village but has everything thing you need including maybe a 15 minute walk to the Crab and Lobster Pub which serves really good food and overlooks the sea which is an added bonus. This was our first visit to the Isle of Wight and to be honest we could not have picked a better property in a nicer location.

Lovely clean peaceful property, comfortable furniture and bed.

Good quality appliances and cookware, decent size TV etc. Good walk to the beach and to the pub! Good sharp knives which is a rarity in most properties! Plenty of teabags, instant and fresh coffee, salt/pepper and cooking oil, a few dishwasher tablets and a few washing pods were left as well which were very much appreciated, as well as the milk and biscuits, thank you! I think the hot water may need some attention, there is no pressure at all, the hot water tends to just trickle, this meant that the shower has no pressure at all and even on the highest heat setting was only just tepid. We were forewarned about the removal of the trees in the back garden, however we felt that these have also removed any privacy to back of the house as there are no curtains/blinds on the bi-fold doors in the lounge. Some form of washing line would have been handy in the garden, we found a bag of pegs and a clothes airer but no washing line, we hung the clothes on the airer in the garden and went out for the day, when we came back the clothes had blown all over the garden and had to be washed again! These are just a few points for feedback, we found the property very comfortable and would definitely return if we ever went back to the IOW. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely holiday home.

It was a wonderful house, clean, tidy, well equiped and made a great holiday.

We loved our stay here.

Location was ideal, short walk to beach and Crab and Lobster restaurant. Lovely garden, very tastefully decorated house with every possible amenity and more. Shops close by too. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic.

The cottage was perfect in every way. Fully equipped.Great position. Extremely comfortable. We could not change anything. We both loved every minute and did not want to leave
