What a place. We arrived to Dale greeting us and showing us around, he showed us how to use the hot tub, answering any questions we had (they live next door so are there if any issues but we had none!). The cottage is stunning, so cozy, and it really has everything you’d need for a stay. Even a washing machine which we gratefully used to lessen the washload when we got home!Cottage was clean, plenty of towels and bedding for use. Lovely view out the front windows of Carisbrooke castle.The welcome basket blew us away, we were planning on going to do a little shop after we had dumped our suitcases but we didn’t need to! It was so thoughtful (milk, bread, everything for a full English, juice, and loads of other goodies!) it was very gratefully received so thank you. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing stay! My two children didn’t want to leave :)
