Hope Cottage - a house that sleeps 10 guests in 5 bedrooms

Hope Cottage was perfect for our family holiday. Great accommodation in an ideal location. Rooms were beautiful and ideally layed out to suit a large family. The kitchen was amazing and had everything you could possibly need. The children had a large garden to play in which they really enjoyed. We will certainly be staying here again. Thank you so much for a great stay.

Hope Cottage was perfect for our get-together, two families with grandparents. It had everything we needed in good location, on quiet road, with easy access to the beaches. Good selection of pubs and shops nearby. Very homely feel. Enclosed back garden was ideal for children to play in and numerous books, games, toys in playroom. Well equipped kitchen. We even had good weather and a barbeque in April!

The house was the highlight of our stay on IOW - spacious, beautifully furnished but had a lived in feel, so we felt relaxed. 2 families and dog fitted perfectly. Lovely linen and towels, plenty of hot water bathrooms, kitchen equipment etc. would recommend and also come again.

Great management agent who communicated clearly and very responsive. Great garden, bedrooms, kitchen etc. Will definitely try and book again for next year.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hope Cottage. Very well positioned with beach at the end of the road. Well stocked Co op around the corner. Most areas of interest on the Isle of Wight about a twenty minute drive. Plenty of parking in the front drive. Very large, comfortable house that accommodated ten people over three generations. The kitchen was well supplied with crockery, cutlery and pots and pans. Very easy to cook and eat in. We all enjoyed our time there. The only criticisms are the lack of hanging facilities in the bedrooms. Also only one person could have a shower at a time, the water pressure was not strong.

Beautiful home with everything we needed to make our first trip to the Isle of Wight memorable. Even the sun shone!

This was our second stay at Hope Cottage and once again we were very pleased with the house. It’s perfect for families with young children. The garden and playroom mean lots of space and amenities for the little ones. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and the shops in Bembridge. A few small bits of maintenance were needed while we were there, but nothing major. The team at Island Holiday Homes were very responsive and helpful.

Hope Cottage was a perfect house for our extended family beach holiday in September. The house is spacious and attractively decorated with the large kitchen and sitting room both opening onto a big terrace and creating a wonderful flowing space for entertaining all ages. Two big family tables inside and out encouraged fun mealtimes. The kitchen is well designed and well stocked with two big fridges and a variety of serving dishes which all works well for a large family. The unusually broad hall absorbs all manner of kit from boating to buggies to golf bags. There is a smaller sitting room on the other side of the hall which was good for home working and peaceful activities. Also there is a well-equipped laundry and good downstairs loo. The garden is long and narrow, predominantly grass and full of sun from mid morning onwards - excellent BBQ territory. Upstairs the main king size bedroom and bathroom are glorious, the second bedroom a small double and then 3 flexible single bedded twin rooms. The top bathroom only has a loo and bath so this put pressure on the family bathroom with potentially 8 people using the shower above the bath there. The house worked extremely well and we would return in a flash.

Lovely home and well equipped. 4 year old grandson loved the garden and trampoline and play equipment. Had 4 month old granddaughter with us and fine this year but if was crawling or beginning to walk may be too many items downstairs for her to fall into or knock so more suitable for perhaps 3 plus age. Also handy if had handrails in the bath. Top floor bedrooms lacking in wardrobes and storage space Although washing machine and tumble dryer an outside line would be useful. Perhaps a note could be put on any cupboards especially in the kitchen where these are inaccessible All in all a spacious property and obviously a family home

Lovely house and very well equipped. Very clean on arrival. Great layout and plenty of space. Thank you for a lovely stay.
