Everything you need is nearby, a lovely pub, convenience store, and reliable public transport. The house itself is perfectly equipped, clean and well maintained.

All the equipment you could possibly want for self catering, canât think of anything else we could have used. We had a pizza one night and jokingly wondered if there was a pizza wheel- not only is there a wheel but also a tray to bake it on, we donât even have one of those at home! The welcome pack was much appreciated, and information was provided covering everything from where to shop and eat, rubbish collection and even how to work the hob. We made good use of the buses (we purchased a 7 day ticket), the bus stops are close to the house and buses are frequent. The only negatives were (and this is being a little picky), we found the sofa a bit uncomfortable at times but we both suffer from bad backs and finding comfortable seating can be an issue for us, and the tv had a mind of its own but we soon learned how to handle it. We loved our stay at Old Post Office Mews and had a lovely holiday on the beautiful Isle of Wight
