I had an amazing stay at this cottage. It was exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything I needed. The owner has really thought of every detail to make the stay comfortable. The location was perfect - quiet and surrounded by parkland, yet only a short walk away from the old village. The neighbors were friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay.
Nothing all good.

Great value for money, the cottage was well-equipped and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect, with a short walk to the old village and the peaceful surroundings of Shanklin Manor. The staff were friendly and communication with the owner was excellent.
The breakfast menu could benefit from a wider selection of options.

We had a fantastic time at Chestnut Cottage for a weekend getaway. The location was stunning and the cottage itself was beautifully decorated and fully equipped. It was a peaceful retreat after a day of sightseeing. The little touches like tea, coffee, biscuits, and milk made us feel right at home. We would highly recommend this cottage and would love to stay here again if we ever return to the island.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

The bathroom was amazing, with a lovely bathtub to soak in after a long day exploring. It felt so indulgent, like my own personal spa retreat. As someone who loves a good soak, this was pure bliss.
Personally, I found the bathroom a bit small. But hey, I know some people might think it adds to the charm!

The location was amazing, close to the old village but still quiet with parkland and a duck pond nearby. The cottage itself felt like a home away from home, with every convenience thought of. Plus, it was incredibly well equipped, from a first aid kit to a picnic backpack and phone chargers. The cleanliness and communication with the host were also top-notch.
On warmer evenings, the bedrooms got uncomfortably hot and having a fan would have been great. Additionally, the front bedroom could benefit from a fan to cool it down.

The location of the accommodation was splendid, with beautiful parkland surroundings and a peaceful atmosphere. The cottage itself was well-equipped, with thoughtful touches such as tea, coffee, biscuits, and milk provided. The house was incredibly clean and had everything you could possibly need, including a first aid kit, fan, and insulated picnic backpack. Communication with the host was excellent, making our stay even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend this comfortable and convenient accommodation.
The kitchen lacked sufficient cupboard space to store our food.

The location of the cottage is perfect, just a short walk from the charming old village. the cottage itself is beautifully decorated and impeccably clean. the grounds of Shanklin Manor, where the cottage is located, are stunning and provide a peaceful setting. the hosts have thought of everything and have provided an abundance of amenities, from a well-equipped kitchen to a first aid kit and even a picnic backpack.
The bedrooms can get quite hot in the evenings and it would have been nice to have a fan to cool down. the outside light from a neighboring property shines directly into one of the bedrooms, making it difficult to sleep with the curtains open.

I had the most incredible stay at this peaceful retreat called Chestnut Cottage. It was conveniently located near the old village, yet surrounded by serene parkland with a charming duck pond. The modern cottage itself felt like a true home away from home, with every convenience and comfort meticulously thought out by the owner. From a well-equipped kitchen to a range of thoughtful amenities like a first aid kit and picnic backpack, I wanted for nothing during my stay. The cleanliness of the property was impeccable, and the communication with the host was excellent. I highly recommend this beautiful location, and should I ever return to this wonderful island, I would definitely choose to stay at Chestnut Cottage again. a splendid experience.
