We had a wonderful stay, Paul was very welcoming and had set everything up for our arrival. The beds were very comfy, lovely powerful shower, and a beautiful garden that was so peaceful and quiet. The only thing we struggled with was cupboard space in the kitchen, as the kitchen is really well kitted out with plates/glasses and all you could needRead more, it didnt leave much space for us to put any food away in cupboards and therefore had to use the kitchen top to put everything but then we werent left with any space to prepare food. It may not be an issue for others, we just had a lot with us as we were traveling with a toddler and a baby. Hide

We had such a lovely stay at this beautiful annexe in Gurnard on the Isle of Wight. Sally and Paul were amazing hosts so welcoming and friendly, and it was a lovely touch that they greeted us when we arrived and gave us some recommendations of local pubs and attractions. The annexe was absolutely spotless, incredibly comfortable and had so manyRead more thoughtful little touches that really made it feel like a home from home. The beds were particularly comfortable, and everything we could possibly need had been thought of. It was the perfect size for 2 adults, a 14 year old and a dog! The location is fantastic. We loved visiting The Woodvale pub, which is about 30 minute walk or quick car drive away great food, a lovely atmosphere and absolutely amazing sunsets. We also really enjoyed the beautiful walk along the seafront into Cowes. Sally and Paul made us feel so welcome, and their annexe is the perfect base for exploring the Isle of Wight. We would definitely stay again and wouldnt hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and peaceful place to stay. Hide
