A fantastic house in the old village. Clean, well equipped and loads of character. A genuine couple of minutes walk to any of the village pubs and shops, and only a little further for the rest of Shanklin. The cliff tops and lift are nearby and it’s only about 15 minutes walk to the esplanade and beach. I’ve been visiting the island since I was a tot - staying in guest houses, hotels, our own caravan and statics - and this is the nicest place so far. Will definitely book again. ##### Andrew S.

The cottage was beautiful, well equipped with very comfortable beds. Shanklin was a great base to explore the whole island. It was absolutely no bother parking in the carpark (2 minutes from the house) and we enjoyed a few films on Netflicks. We will definately be returning as there are more walks and cycle rides we'd love to do and this was a fantastic propertly and the owner was helpful and communicative with all the information we needed. ##### Clare W.

It was our first time on the Isle of Wight as a family of six. And the start in this great cottage was unforgettable. The cottage is just wonderful. The beds, room layout, toilets and bathrooms, space, kitchen facilities everything was perfect. Each room is so cosy and lovingly decorated, you feel right at home and welcome. Everything in the house is super clean. The location is brilliant. Whether with your own car (parking just around the corner) or with public transport. Everything is very easy to reach. Shanklin is a great place, wonderful beach, great gift shops, lovely places to eat and pubs, perfect afternoon tea, we enjoyed it so much. The communication with the landlady is perfect. We will definitely come back and tell you Nicole, thank you so much for everything. It was a very special experience and wonderful holiday for us. ##### Rebekka W.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in this superb cottage right in the heart of Shanklin Old Village. The location really couldn't be better as it is near to a great selection of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and shops. It is also right opposite a bus stop and near transport links and it is within easy walking distance of the seafront. Nicole the owner was always very prompt in replying and also extremely helpful in every way. The cottage is spacious, well equipped & beautifully decorated; it is obvious that a lot of thought has gone into making visitors as comfortable as possible. There is parking close by and the tourist parking permit is a major boon as it is included in the cost of the cottage and enables you to park in most car parks all over the island. My family has visited the Isle of Wight on many occasions and stayed in numerous cottages in different areas. l have no hesitation in saying that this was without doubt the nicest and is also in the best location we have stayed in and would therefore thoroughly recommend this holiday property. We very much look forward to staying again in the future. ##### Madeline Holm ### 10/10 Excellent #### Antonia L. 24 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely stay in Shanklin Fab house - very comfortable and clean and in good location.
