Avoid if you are seeking peace and quiet
We were seeking a peaceful location, close to Shanklin and with the sound of the bubbling Chine in the garden. Instead we were hemmed in, with properties all around and with a very noisy group of people next door. As such, we could not even go in the garden and dreaded coming back to the property after a day out. It was so unpleasant that we came home two days early.

Wonderful stay in beautiful property and great location
The Coach House was clean and tidy and tastefully furnished throughout. Every little thing you might need to feel at home is supplied. Peaceful location just outside the Shanklin old village (within 10 mins walk) with lovely park opposite. Jill is a marvelous host providing great communication and welcoming us personally. Thoroughly recommended for a stay in the Isle of Wight!

Perfect location
Perfect location as walking distance to shops, restaurants in a beautiful quaint little village. It was also ideal that the beach was within walking distance. Opposite the house was a large Field with a little duck pond and a children’s Park so our little dogs loved going over there each morning for a run. The house had everything that was required for a holiday. It was clean and tidy and Jill was a perfect host.

Everything we needed and more
What's not to like about this wonderful property? Ideally situated near Shanklin Old Village, clean, well maintained and everything we needed for a fortnights stay for a family of 6. If you want to explore the island without using your car this is the ideal place, 2 bus routes nearby, and only one change at most to get you almost everywhere on the island..

Lovely house in a fab location
Had a lovely stay at Jill’s house with our two boys, Granny and two dogs. Location is great and walking distance to the old town with nice shops, pubs and restaurants and a short stroll to the beach. The park opposite the house is an amazing space and great to walk to dogs with a small playground for the kids. The house is very well equipped and a real home from home with all the essentials (and more!) catered for. Wouldn’t hesitate to re-book in the future!

This property was thoughtfully put together for the ease, comfort and enjoyment of guests on vacation. We loved it. Our 7-year old loved it. Great location. Super thorough instructions as well as extra information about the area. Our only regret was that we did not plan for a longer stay.

Lovely location just ten minutes walk from Shanklin town. The property was a lovely place to stay. There was a good sized outdoor space in which to enjoy meals and inside there was everything you needed for your stay. Soft fluffy towels, loads of tableware, comfortable sofas and more....
