The Moorings - a house that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

This was our first trip to the Isle of Wight. The house is spacious and well equipped. I liked the general decor of dark blue walls with white/cream ceilings. There is a small garden at the back which is sheltered and catches the sunlight during most of the day. A nice touch was having a bottle of wine and a pack of coffee on arrival. The box of multiple games were appreciated by the children. A small point - note that the side gate does not lock properly. Parking on the street could be difficult, but there was a free car park at the top of the road next to the green. St Helens is quite a small place, which we appreciated. It has a local shop across the green with a good local pub serving food along the same road. There is a lovely traditional book shop and a cafe next door on the house side of the green. The green is good for playing ball games and flying a kite!

This was our third stay at The Moorings ! It’s in a beautiful location right next to St Helens Duver and the beach. The house is so comfortable, clean and homely. Always feel so relaxed after our stay and look forward to our next visit.

This was our second visit to The Moorings and undoubtedly will visit again! For us, the house is located in the perfect spot on the island, we love being so close to the Duver and St Helens beach. The house is so homely, clean, well furnished and cosy. We had a great week out and about all over the island and really appreciated coming back to our comfortable home.

We had a perfect week staying at The Moorings in St Helens! The Moorings was everything we wanted from a holiday home: clean, comfortable and homely. The enclosed back garden was perfect for our 2 dachshunds which made a big difference to our holiday, peace of mind is very important to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and really appreciated the location of the house just a short walk to the Duver and the beach.

We stayed with our three teenage kids and found the place lovely. Very spacious downstairs with a gorgeous conservatory. Nice bedrooms and only (very) small downside was the king size zip & link bed was a little uncomfortable but not enough to put a downer on anything. Island Homes were very easy to get hold of and very helpful when needed - would happily book with them again.

A well positioned house round the corner from St. Helen's village green, old bookshop, village shop and good pub. A five miinute walk downhill to the Duver and again to St Helen's bay and Baywatch cafe. The house itself was well planned and nicely furnished. In our case plenty of space for toddler, baby and dogs. The narrow stairs posed a bit of a problem for the elderly in our party who would have benefitted from a handrail on the wall side. There did not appear to be an extractor fan above cooker. Parkng outside the house is not guaranteed, some days better than others, but certainly a house we would like to book again.

Our third visit and we would definitely book again, so that speaks volumes. We love the village feel of St Helens and the location and facilities of The Moorings. Spacious property - plenty of room for 6. Residential neighbours either side so it feels very homely. Future visitors will not be disappointed.

Thank you for letting us stay in this beautiful house in beautiful St Helens on the beautiful Isle of Wight. We had a lovely holiday.

Beautiful house in a lovely area of the island, cleam, well equipped house with plenty of space for our 5 person family. Nearby pub is excellent although St Helens needs a coffee shop up and running again!!
