A brillant house in a lovely quiet area. The house was perfect for what we wanted and needed and was fully stocked with everything you could need while away. Couldn’t fault the home at all and it provided us an excellent base to explore the island. Sarah and Ashley are great hosts, from the second we booked they offered hints and tips to help us get everything sorted ready for the holiday and even personally checked us in and gave a tour of the house before leaving us to settle in. Would highly recommend the house for a great stay on the Isle of Wight.

The property was in a lovely village with a very well stocked shop which we used daily. We had an excellent meal at the village pub where the staff were welcoming and there was live music on the Friday evening. Our hosts were at the property to show us round and explain everything and we had a wonderful holiday.

Summer Family Holiday

We had a great stay on the IOW, and this is the perfect base for it. Beautiful house with everything you need. Kids loved it. The facilities are amazing. It's a quick walk to the local pub and shop, and great location to drive anywhere on the island. I would definitely recommend staying here with a family.

Excellent property

We have stayed here previously 2 years ago and the property is still in the same pristine condition. Sarah and Ashley are great hosts and information about the property is listed in the handbook which is really helpful. Property is spotlessly clean and everything is in working order. Good facilities in the kitchen and also washing machine available which is really handy. Best Isle of Wight property we have stayed in

Beautiful modern house with all the mod cons

Just a lovely huge, light house to escape in. There is room for everyone and more and it’s so comfortable and peaceful. The hot tub is superb. If you have a dog, it’s ideal. It’s all enclosed and safe and the walks around about are out of this world. The house is in a chocolate box location. Fully recommend this property.

We were greeted by the hosts who couldn’t have been more helpful. They were super friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable about the local area. House was beautiful, clean and modern and had lots of things to do. We enjoyed playing some of the supplied games in the evenings. Location was perfect, walking distance to a local shop and lovely pub with delicious food and very friendly staff and lots of accessible walks nearby too. Perfect size house to share with friends as well. We will definitely be returning one day!

Fab location, Fab property, Fab hosts

Hawthorns is perfectly located for exploring the IOW. On the quieter side of the island but still well positioned. Excellent village with several shops and pub. village shop is a must. Great local beaches, some walkable to. Dog friendly also, both property and local beaches year round. Property well set up, furnished beautifully, and contained everything needed for a great break. Sarah very accommodating and informative both before and on arrival. Hot tub a great plus, along with the extensive patio furniture and garden loungers. Fantastic stay all round.
