We very much enjoyed our stay, Sandcastles is well located to the beach and Shanklin Chine and the high street, immaculately clean and generously equipped even with beach toys in the garage! We visited the Needles, Blankgang Chine, days on the various beaches and The whole family loved it and would certainly return.

This property was lovely. We spent Christmas here with our young family and dog. It is located near the beach and the views from the house are amazing. The kitchen was well equipped plenty of plates to use. Also good to have off street parking in a very busy road.

A beautiful house with lovely sea views in a great location close to Shanklin old town and the Chine. It was very clean and comfortable, and had everything you could possibly need. We loved our stay, and would definitely recommend. The McHale family.
