We have been going to Woodside cottage for the past 5 years, and we love it there, it has everything you need. You dont have any worries when staying here you can get to everywhere you need to go daily perfect cottage in the perfect location. Unfortunately we have a couple of pups now, and due to a very bad experience with one of the kennels on the island we wont be able to come again unless we find a top class kennel to look after them. Our Inlaws will be back though you can count on them !! From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard B. 25 Oct 2021 #### A Delightful Stay Property was extremely well presented and clean, felt very homely in every respect. Kitchen was well appointed with plenty of pots, pans and utensils. Large garden was especially nice for our two young boys (although we spent most days exploring the island). Only slight negatives, one sofa was extremely uncomfortable (sofa bed) and the location is approx. 1 mile outside of Godshill with no pathway on the main road to the village so had to use the car always. Overall a fantastic place to stay, great value and would return again in the future. ##### Richard B. From a partner site ### 8/10 Good #### Michael P. 19 Oct 2021 #### Great Location and well equipped \+ Ideal location in centre of island + Airy, comfortable conservatory + Large, well maintained garden with good facilities for eating outside/relaxing/occupying young children + Spacious accommodation, and well equipped + Good heating when needed and lots of hot water - Two settees past their use by date - uncomfortable - Shower in wet room very cramped under sloping roof - but good shower downstairs ##### Michael P.
