Well equipped cottage in an ideal location
We stayed here two years ago, so already knew what an ideal base it was for our holiday. Tennyson Cottage is well equipped and convenient, and suits our family group (3 adults) very well. We find the location of Freshwater, and the location of the cottage within it, to be very handy for the things we like to do and the places we mainly visit.

A pleasant place to stay
We had an enjoyable stay at Tennyson Cottage. It is conveniently situated with good parking. The house itself is comfortable and although on a small estate we found it very quiet. Having a garden was a bonus as the weather was particularly warm while we were there and it was nice to sit outside in the evenings.

Isle of Wight Holiday
Very disappointed with some elements of cleanliness. A modern house in a convenient location for the south of the island. More could be done to add to the attractiveness of the garden.

A two week stay at tennyson cottage
When we arrived at tennyson cottage it looked like it hadn't been cleaned. There was a large hand print on the rear patio doors , there was dirt crumbs on the floor as well as hair strands. The cleaning company arrived that evening to sort it out, but it wasn't a great start to our holiday. Other than that it was a nice house in a nice area, close to freshwater shops . The cottage itself was nice, but could do with a washing line and maybe a dishwasher.

Superb cottage in excellent location
We love the West Wight, and this cottage suited us perfectly. Easy access to the downs, and excellent bus service to other parts of the island. Freshwater shops provided everything we needed for our stay. The cottage was comfortable and well-equipped. Kitchen utensils were our only criticism: no grater or casseroles, while other items duplicated. (It probably depends on what other guests have left behind.)
One big plus was the ability to book with variable arrival an departure times. We are seldom able to have two complete weeks because living in Cumbria we like to take two days on the journey, so Saturday to Saturday bookings do not suit us.

Comfortable stay for New Year
Comfortable for 3 of us. New build house with all the modern comforts of a new kitchen, bathroom and good central heating.
Car charger was invaluable and easy to use on the shared driveway with next door.
She’d in garden was secure for our bikes and made riding much easier.
Location was great-2 mins from supermarket (Sainsbury’s or Co-op) and easy to get into the main footpaths for Tennyson Down, needles etc. took about 20 mins to walk to Freshwater Bay.
We love the Isle of Wight and love to keep coming back to West Wight. Even though the weather wasn’t on our side, the level of accommodation was good and the restaurants/cafes are increasing in their level of food and being open over the winter period.
A good stay!

comfortable and quiet
The cottage was just as described and the rooms as expected, as shown in the photos . It was small but quite adequate, warm and comfortable, with usable outdoor space.
The beds were fine, the decor bright and fresh, and upstairs was light and airy. The downstairs living room could be improved wih a bit more lighting, but was fine otherwise.
The kitchen was small but straightforward to use, despite fridge freezer only being accesible when the kitchen door was closed.
Two small plumbing tasks - dripping kitchen tap, and bathroom basin very slow to empty. Otherwise the facilities were clean and modern and functioned well.
The location on a smal l modern estate was pleasant and quiet, and shops within easy walking access.

First Impressions count
This property is at the higher end of the price range for self catering on the Island so we had high expectations.
Please note that we have stayed at many self catering properties on the Island and quite a few via VRBO/Home Away properties all over UK and Europe. We have only ever had two where the cleaning was not up to scratch and that was years ago, one on the mainland and another locally in Freshwater.
We chose this property as we had to come to the Island for a funeral and needed an extra bedroom for 2 extra family members who would join us later.
Also it’s very convenient, being in Freshwater.
It’s a nice quiet house with good amenities but has been let down by some avoidable omissions.
I chose not to report this immediately because we had a lot of preparation to do and we wanted privacy during our stay.
As a result, what could have been a 10 is now a zero (or even a minus!)
Double thumbs down for the cleaning. You don't come on holiday to clean toilets!!

2022 holiday to Isle of wight
Superb accommodation on a quite estate. All home comforts available. Asnear to Yarmouth accommodation is great for ferry crossings. Great location for visiting the island. Bus routes are many and able to use bus passes on them. We only found a printed bus timetable at the ferry terminal when we were going home so useful to get one earlier in the visit. Not visited the island for 20 years but glad we chose to visit this year. Improvements noted on the island but very much the same. Gorgeous beaches around e.g Compton, Ryde, Sandown to name but a few. Many nice places to eat, food very good at all - New Inn Shalfleet, Sun Inn at Colbourne, Three Bishops at Brigstone. Visited National Trust places - good for car parking and Mottistone Gardens excellent. Can walk for miles and frequently did. Hope to return.

Perfect place to stay
A short walk from the shops and buses this was an excellent place to stay. It was very quiet, clean and very well equipped. Everything worked! What more can you ask? A home from home.

Lovely house in great location
Our second stay at Tennyson Cottage, following a short break last year. It is a lovely, bright and airy property in a quiet cul-de-sac in Freshwater. Shops, cafes, bars and a wonderful chippy are a short walk or drive away. This is great location in a quieter part of the island and makes an excellent base. The pretty town of Yarmouth, complete with ferry link to Lymington is a short drive away. The popular beach of Colwell Bay is also nearby and it is a great location for lovely coastal walks.
The house itself is modern, well-equipped and comfortable, with pretty much everything you need for a pleasant stay. For us, as a family of three, it is pretty much perfect (it is a shame it is not pet-friendly, as this may prevent us from returning in the future). There is generous off-street parking and the neighbours appear to be friendly.
If we were to be completely honest and over-critical, the house was not quite as spotlessly clean as we remembered it, particularly in the kitchen. We were also a little concerned, when stripping the beds ahead of our departure, by the state of the mattress protector in the master bedroom.

Great house in quiet location
The house is situated in a quiet cul de sac with friendly neighbours. It was clean and well maintained. The kitchen had everything you needed to be able to prepare your own meals and also had a washer dryer which could be useful if staying for a week or more. The centre of Freshwater was just a short walk away which had all the shops you needed to buy groceries from although we found the Coop on the way to Freshwater Bay to be the best supermarket as it had more choice and free parking. If you enjoy cooking fish then the fishmonger in the centre should be visited. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return one day.

West Wight Wonder
We enjoyed a lovely short break in Tennyson Cottage, a spacious and well equipped modern house, tucked away in a new development in Freshwater.
Communication from Island Holiday Homes was excellent throughout and the welcome card was a nice touch.
We found the house had been cleaned to a very high standard, with clear procedures in place for Covid19. Great facilities, including two spacious bedrooms, a well equipped kitchen, a comfortable lounge/diner, a downstairs loo and off road parking to the side of the house.
For us, the house is in a great location in a quiet corner of the island, away from the busier tourist areas, a great base for walks and the beaches at Colwell Bay, Freshwater Bay and Totland . The beautiful and historic town of Yarmouth is a short drive away, perfect for the Lymington ferry.
Freshwater itself has a good range of shops for provisions, including a large, new supermarket just outside the town.
All in all we had an enjoyable and comfortable stay and look forward to returning.

Cottage delivers more than it promises
This is a great base in Freshwater for a holiday - in a quiet cul-de-sac, and a 3 min walk from the local Sainsbury's. It was spotlessly clean, there was parking and a pleasant garden. Other cottages might appear to ooze more character, but in times when cleanliness is paramount, modern, simple furnishings win. We're very happy to recommend it.

No Hot Water
We had to contact Island Holiday homes as on Day 3 there was no hot water. An engineer came the same day and fixed it. We also thought the bedding smelled rather damp. Apart from this, we had a very comfortable 4 day stay in this well-equipped house in a nice quiet location.

Home from home
Tennyson cottage is a real gem, a home from home.
The cottage is equipped with everything you need and spotlessly clean.
The location is perfect for exploring the island and should you need supplies the shops are a few minutes walk away.
A good nights sleep in the comfortable beds and quiet location was heaven.
We would love to return and definitely recommend Tennyson Cottage!

A nice 3 nights stay
We really liked the house, it was quite, clean and comfortable. We had everything that we needed, it was a really nice 3 nights that we spent there. Definitely we will come back (if it will be free :) ).
There was just one minor thing. When we arrived and parked in front of the house the neighbour warned us that we mustn't park in front of the house as they are his parking spaces. Of course I didnt want to argue so I parked next to the house. It was strange that he has 3 spaces and there is just one for the house but one was enough for us anyway.
Anyway we loved the house and we'll come back in Spring!
Thank you!

tennyson cottage
it was very comfortable and we enjoyed the location. The only thing that might have been useful was a folder detailing how to use the washing machine, what to do with the bins, etc. We could not open the side gate - the lock could have been broken?
