What can I say. First time on the island and this was the place that caught my eye. The cottage has been well presented with many of the creature comforts of home such as kitchen utensils, washer , LCD tv with freeview, games console and also quick Wi-Fi for those Netflix nights or business.
Owner Cathy is a pleasant person to speak too , and is willing to answer questions and help with any issues that arise.
What sold it for me and my wife to be we're the lovely views from top balcony where you can see almost all of Ventnor and the ocean which was bliss. Another feature is a bottom decking area where you can wake up to the view as well.
It's quite hilly in some areas but does keep you fit lol.
I'm arrival you are greeted with a bottle of wine which is a nice touch after a long journey.
House is upside down so bedrooms are downstairs etc .
If your planning to have a holiday home away from home I would choose this. I will be back.
Lovely cottage, brilliant views, everywhere isn't far away, good bus service if you don't want to use your car,
We really enjoyed our stay in the ocean view cottage.
We were very lucky, the weather was good during our stay. The ocean view from the living room and master bedroom are very impressive when it is sunshine!
The property is very clean and comfortable. It provides everything we need and all appliances are functional.
The scenic drive A3055 is not far away.
Only problem is the overnight road work in front of the cottage. Fortunately, it's just one night disruption.
I just have returned here again bringing my parents with me for the third time. We just cant keep away. I look forward to staying here every year. From the moment I get on the car ferry I cant wait to arrive. It has stunning views of the ocean and overlooks the whole of Ventnor seafront. The cottage itself is clean and homely with all you need for a good holiday. And locally there is plenty to do and see my personal favourite is a walk around the botanical gardens. looking forward to next time I arrive back here again.....Many thanks.....
4 of us (2 couples) stayed here for my wife's 30th birthday. I'm Irish, she's Greek and the couple we shared with are German and Dutch. Already quite a cosmopolitan mix which was very much in keeping with the environment. We couldn't quite believe it was England!
The house is really well located within walking distance of a lovely fish restaurant, a few friendly bars and a coastal promenade. We spent most of our time on the BBQ area of the house, however, simply taking in the sea views from an impressive height. Everything was very clean, very well laid out and, if we weren't so lazy, there was lots of information laid on about what to do and where to do it. We'd planned to do more exploring but the views were such that we didn't really feel the need.
We've been back since. And many of our friends have taken our advice to visit and not regretted it.

We stayed here in June with our two kids and had a wonderful family holiday. There are stunning views of the ocean at the rear of the property which can be enjoyed from the lounge, balcony, master bedroom and patio. We particularly loved the victorian character of the property and the tasteful renovation undertaken by the owners. The house was clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our holiday. The kitchen was a good size and well equiped. Can't wait to go back again.
This cottage makes the most of an amazing view with upside down design. The decor and furnishings are lovely and in keeping with the age of the cottage, It is also very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We could have sat out on the balcony or decking for the whole of our holiday and quietly just watched the world sail by. The bottle of wine on arrival was a really nice touch after a long drive. We look forward to returning next year.
