Cottage a East Cowes

“Position is amazing. Huge skies and wild coast. We couldn't get a couple of the showers to work effectively”

“The Boat House is a perfect place to relax with lovely views over the countryside. This was our second stay and would certainly book again.”

“Was a warm, well equipped house. Nice view. ”

“The cottage is full of character. Lovely walks. Kitchen well equipped for Xmas catering. Generous welcome basket. It was wonderful. Nothing. It was perfect thank you.”

“I stayed at the house for almost a month and it was memorable. It's comfortable, beautiful, and cozy. Very safe. A quiet neighborhood, with the morning visit of a cute and shy squirrel. This is definitely where I will stay again when I am in England.”

“We had a wonderful stay at 1 Apse Castle Cottage — a beautiful, character-filled retreat nestled in peaceful woodland. The cottage is spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and full of charm, with a cozy log burner, luxurious bathroom, and a well-equipped kitchen. Beds were super comfy, and everything felt welcoming and homely. The location is ideal for exploring Shanklin and the wider Isle of Wight. We especially appreciated how dog-friendly it was — our pup loved it! Truly a magical place. We’d...

“The house was fabulous, well equipped and in a fantastic location. Swimming pool and games room were a big hit with everyone. Easy access to neighbouring towns and shopping facilities. Easy access to a great beach.”

“Highly recommended beautiful house located in a lovely quiet road. The house has lots of room and is clean and bright. The house is fully equipped including indoor and outdoor games and is a great stay for families. A lovely well kept garden. The location is beautiful, clean and picturesque. Short walk to local shops and village pub. Walking distance to Bembridge beach. Local residents are friendly. We will definitely stay here again on another visit to the Island. ”

“a lovely house, with plenty of off road parking spaces, a few meters away from the beach. We loved the possibility of just popping out to sea for a quick morning swim or a run along the shore, and then come back to the house for a breakfast al fresco in the secluded garden.”

“Pros - great location, near pub and nice coffee shop. Short walk to beach. Cons - not very clean on arrival, mould problem in bathroom, strong damp smell throughout property. Had planned to cook but found mould growing on wooden spoons and cobwebs on the pans - so ate out instead! Having read through the comments in the visitor book we could see these issues had been raised several times, so it’s disappointing they haven’t been addressed. Would not stay again.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at Elm Lodge, in particular its situation in a peaceful, wooded area where we were able to watch spring unfold and observe many varieties of birds. The lodge was clean, comfortable and well equipped and in a great location for visiting Bosham and the surrounding area. This was our second visit and we will be returning!”
