Sleep 2 in One Bedroom Plus 2 on Sofa Bed [lounge]

Stay in this lovely converted barn located on a working farm between Newport and Yarmouth. Standing next to a sizeable pond that attracts ducks and wildlife, this really is a haven of peace and tranquillity that will appeal to those wishing to get away from it all.

Lovely stay on a working farm

We had a great time on the farm, which the entire family enjoyed. The children really enjoyed feeding the ducks and the cows. The owner is very friendly and the accommodation is comfortable. Bring your wellies if you want to explore the beautiful nature on your doorstep.

Would you return?
Yes.





perfect,

Great location on a working farm with cows, sheep, ducks, hens and dogs. Very peaceful. Weather was wonderful. We love wildlife and countryside so were delighted with the Isle of Wight and the ease of seeing any of it. Great walks including Ventnor to Steephill Cove, Brading Marshes (saw white tailed eagle there!), Five Barrows, Newton harbour, Compton Bay and the Needles. Lots of good places to eat. Osborne House and gardens is a must see. Our host, Richard, was very welcoming and we had chats about the farm, the island and the past which enriched our holiday experience.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Willows, being close to the heart of a farm with sheep, cattle and ducks, was a novel experience. Our host was friendly and made us so welcome. Willows is well situated for footpaths and a connecting bus if you want to leave the car behind.
It would be helpful if the address was given as Willows, Street Place Farm and there was signage for Willows at the top of the lane.




Lovely stay.

The location of the cottage was lovely and suited us well for the week. Our children loved being on a farm and enjoyed seeing the animals and the tractor. The host well very welcoming. The cottage is well placed to explore the island, especially the south west beaches. The sofa bed was uncomfortable and a little dusty when unfolded (I'm sensitive to dust) but the main bed was fine.



Willows was completely suitable for us - a clean well equipped property in a quiet rural location

its a small cottage. which was fine. The sofa bed was the only seat available in the living area. its cushions are warn out and it made the evenings uncomfortable.
The was no basics left out for us, not even soap , washing up liquid, salt or pepper. This was unexpected, as they have always been in other cottages we have hired, and a poor touch. At the last cottage we stayed at ,also booked through cottages.com, a welcome pack or fresh eggs and a few other groceries were left out.
It was advertised with a dishwasher, which was not the case.
The WIFI was very poor and clearly a very old router was been used in the farmhouse , with no booster sited in the cottage. I would say this is unacceptable these days.
It was a lovely location, but there was a lack of footpaths we could use , the farmer, Richard suggesting we walk along the (narrow)road to the village.
Wet thought the cottage was ok, but could and should have been a lot better. the rent price was fair.




Lovely stay with wonderful hosts.

The location is very quiet and ideal for star gazing. Lots of walks in the area and a short drive to both Newport and a variety of attractions.
Everyone on the farm was very friendly and helpful. The house was clean and had everything necessary.
Thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Willows.
