• "This was our second stay at Hurst View."

  It is a lovely spacious property and really well equipped. Beds are comfy, and there is everything available in the kitchen you could think of. Very clean and a great view out of the windows at the back of the house. It’s lovely to be so close to yarmouth and freshwater too. Thank you for yet another great holiday! I’m sure we will be back!

  Many thanks for your feedback Lucy! Hurst View hopes to welcome you back soon.....Mike Property Owner

• "We had a most enjoyable few days on the Isle of Wight."

  The house was clean and we were ok but there were a few things that irritated us. The seating in the living room is not adequate for the size of the house with only one sofa that was anywhere near comfortable. There were no recycling facilities, we resorted to separating our own rubbish and taking it to the local recycling depot. There was no dishwasher though clearly a space for one in the kitchen. It has been a long long time since I've stayed in a cottage with no dishwasher! The bed on the top floor is very hard although this is probably a matter of personal taste as my husband was comfortable. I moved downstairs. It should also be noted that the house backs onto a busy road with the associated noise levels, Lastly, take plenty of loo roll and toilet cleaner as none are provided.

  Thanks for your feedback! Due to popular demand, I have added an extra comfy sofa to the lounge-see Sykes updated pictures! Again, recycling has always been a problem for us as I was advised by Sykes not to have a second bin. Glad you were able to recycle using other methods. A dishwasher has been fitted for December 22! The two-way single lane road noise is intermittent, no roads on the island are 'busy'. There should always be plenty of toilet rolls, cleaner is provided although shouldn't be necessary as Sam, our cleaner, prides herself on cleanliness! Mike Property Owner

• "Top bedroom bed is really uncomfortable and the house could do with a dishwasher for the amount of people it can hold."

  Otherwise nice house in good location, perfect for exploring the IOW.

  Thanks for your feedback. I prefer a firm bed, the top bedroom bed is perfect for me and many other guests! There is a softer mattress on the double bed in the first floor double. Different couples have their own preferences, we feel that 'Hurst View' caters for all. A dishwasher has been fitted for December 22! Mike Property Owner

• "Nice spacious property warm beds comfortable."

  Lounge furniture not very comfortable red settee fine but the blue club suite very uncomfortable. Garden is a yard only needed weeding could be a lot better. No information regarding rubbish collection no facility for recycling. We took all our recycling into Freshwater. In spite of the criticism we did enjoy our stay.

  Thanks for your feedback! Extra comfy sofa added, see updated photographs. The rear garden has been extended to the side in November giving it a much more expansive feeling. Loo brushes also added to all three toilets. Mike Property Owner

• "The house was fine, but looking as if it needs a refresh at the end of the season."

  The light next to the bed in the top bedroom didn't work, nor did the blind in that bathroom and the cistern in the top bathroom needs attention as the button didn't always come back up and it would waste a lot of water, but these are easy fixes if the owner is aware (I shall send them a text). I also think a toilet brush in each toilet is a good policy, and I would like to have had some recycling facility - we brought our recycling home with us in the end. For the rest, though, the house suited our purposes perfectly, lovely location, quiet situation, beach 5 minutes walk. We would happily go back there again. Many thanks Simon

• "You describe this property as a "well-presented detached lodge"."

  It is in fact an end-of-terrace house with the small garden backing onto a main road. There was no dishwasher (yes I know this was not included in the details, but I assumed this was an oversight); no recycling facilities; lack of serving dishes, knives etc. in kitchen; no mirrors, loo brushes, bins in bedrooms and bathrooms on middle floor. The carpets could do with a good clean and the whole house could do with a coat of paint. the top shower room has mould/damp patches inside and out the shower cubicle which looked very unpleasant.

  Thanks for your feedback and for returning in April 2022. The description by Sykes is quite obviously wrong from the photo's. Garden extended in November 2022. Loo brushes added to all three toilets. House was re-decorated, and the carpets professionally cleaned at the end of 2021 season. Other queries answered elsewhere. Many thanks Mike Property Owner

• "The property is in a great location for exploring the west side of the island."

  The bed we used was comfortable as was the settee in the living room. Some of the pans are in need of replacing but there is everything you need in the kitchen. The property is in need of painting throughout but this doesn't spoil your stay. We stayed for 2 weeks and a change of towels would have been appreciated especially as there is no reduction for the second week. We would have liked to recycle but this wasn't an option as there was only 1 bin. The neighbours are very friendly. We would overall recommend a stay at this property.

• "Well located but a lack of comfortable 'lounge' seating, dim lighting and being very basically equipped make this something of an uncomfortable place to stay."

  There are also previous reviews citing the lack of comfortable seating and this is still the case as of October 2020.

• "Seating not so comfortable and couple chair legs look if going to break ."

  This was mentiomed in the guest book but doesnt look like anything done about it . also shortage if mirrors in 3 bedrooms

  Thanks for your feedback. We have added more comfortable seats to the lounge area. There are now seven seats that should suit all types of seating required from comfort to sturdy. Extra mirrors added. Many thanks Property Owner

• "Lovely property but not big enough for 6 people!"

  Couldn’t use the garden - too much traffic noise! Too many ants! Not enough comfortable seating for 6 in the lounge! Maybe could do with another 3 seater sofa. Oven was not very good in the kitchen! And too many ants!!! All over the kitchen - even in the kettle! The bedrooms and bathrooms were lovely and location was amazing!

  A dishwasher and bigger bed on top floor would make it perfect!
