Lovely house with great facilities and local amenities.
Kildare made the perfect place to stay for our weekend with friends. The house is spacious, well equipped and very clean. It was great to have a lovely garden and bbq which we made use of. Marc made for the perfect host. You have everything you could need within walking distance and it made a great base for exploring the island. We will not hesitate to stay again!

Absolutely loved our stay at Kildare. Everything was perfect. From the comfy beds, to the kitchen facilities. Location was brilliant with the convenience of the local supermarket and pub. We would recommend staying here.

Lovely, Lovely place!
Brilliant location in centre of village, with plenty of local amenities - Pub, Shop and the Post Office cum Pizzeria! The house is full of character, very spacious, and spotlessly clean. All the bedrooms are very large as is the lounge and dining area - perfect for big groups. Really pretty garden area gives lovely outdoor space too. Kitchen is very fully equipped - as a group we cater a lot for ourselves on holiday - everything we needed was here! It's a great location for exploring the Island as well as close to beaches and fab walks. The owner, Marc, is always contactable and extremely helpful, though I have to say we didn't need much more than the comprehensive pack we were sent before arrival. We went at the end of September (my second stay at this lovely home) and had great weather - the perfect end to the summer of 2020. Highly recommended - we will certainly go again!

A wonderful stay
The house is set in the centre of a lovely village with all the amenities you could ask for, supermarket, pub and even the local post office come pub has a wonderful pizza oven. The characterful house has everything you need for a self catering holiday, with comfortable beds and plenty of hot water. We managed a few days cycling, our rental bikes were delivered directly to the door - perfect way to explore this beautiful island. The local beach is not far with a new cafe on the cliff top offering lots of lovely food and beverages - you could stay all day. The owners are easy and good communicators and we would definitely return and recommend.

Xmas Stay at Kildare Niton IOW
We have just returned from our second stay at Kildare over the Christmas period. The House is delightful , has everything there to make it a pleasant stay. Plenty of room for 10 people . It has a enclosed walled in garden if you are taking your dog ,and is set in a very pretty village with Shop across the road that sells everything u could wish for , a very nice Pub and a local Church should u wish to attend Christmas services . There is a open fire in the living room and a wood burner in the dinning room making it feel very cosy and homely in the evenings. Owners are easily contactable and very helpful . A very good time was had by all , would defiantly stay there again . A great house to stay in over the Summer or Winter periods .

A beautiful cottage in a perfect location
We are regular visitors to Niton, normally staying with my Mum opposite, however it was a bigger family occasion this visit, so we needed some extra space. Kildare is a very comfortable family home, cosy and welcoming. A very well equipped kitchen, plenty of space for 4 adults and 5 children (plus more for family visitors for dinner in the evening). Lovely cottage garden perfect for an Easter egg hunt and to catch the late afternoon sun. Had a great visit and we will be sure to be staying again in the future. Thank you

Fantastic holiday.
Another fantastic two weeks at Kildare Niton. Kildare had had some excellent improvements new wet room and downstairs toilet, both of a very high standard. There was a new high quality carpet on the stairs and in some of the bedrooms. Niton's White Lion pub now under new management excellent food, good value and the service great. Dogs allowed and water bowls available and they offered to cook anything we needed for the dog. Buddle Inn also under new management and we were not disappointed with the food and service. Upgrades to the pub are good, dogs allowed and service good. Village shop had everything you needed and opening times good. Attended the village fete and met some very nice people who told us about the local church that had some photos of the village through the years. They were nice to see as my mum and dad were married in that church and my grand parents lived in the village. We were so lucky with the weather and had a cool property to come back to after a hot day out. I love this village as it is like stepping back in time how I remember it as a child, away from the fast pace of work. Family friendly and dog friendly place with excellent accommodation at Kildare. Can't wait for next years holiday.

About the neighborhood
Niton is a traditional, rural village on the south coast of the Isle of Wight with a 11th century church, post office, chemist, doctors, cafe, library, pottery, the White Lion Pub and large village store/off licence all within 100m of Kildare House. The famous Buddle Inn pub is a short walk within the village offering good food and a superb atmosphere. St. Catherine's Lighthouse dominates the coastine and is open to the public on certain dates. Niton Undercliffe's Castlehaven offers a picturesque fishermans slipway and a secluded beach within a short distance. Nearby Steephill Cove is a traditional, unspoilt fishing cove with a safe, sandy beach, nestled between rocky cliffs and smugglers' coves offering locally caught cuisine. There are many child friendly sandy beaches within easy reach by car. Blackgang Chine Adventure Park is 5 minutes by car along the coast offering great value for families where entrance allows 7 days admission. Niton is in an AONB (Area of National Beauty) and the National Trust owns the land nearby providing unspoilt coastal walks and cycling from the doorstep with St. Catherine's Down as a backdrop. Nearby is Ventnor, the local Victorian seaside town offering a range of activities and services including the Botanical Gardens which contains many tropical plants due to the mild microclimate of the Undercliffe. Also close by is the pretty village of Godshill with its thatched cottages, model village and tea rooms.
