A spring break

Compact but has all that we needed, with only a short walk to seaside or town, with lots of steps or steep gradients. Owner available if needed, bonus of secluded parking. In all a very good time was had.

Perfect for our stay

This adorable little getaway was exactly what my husband and I needed while we were on the Isle of Wight for a friend’s wedding. Judith was a great host and answered quickly whenever I had a question. My only regret is that we didn’t take Judith up on her massage services! We would stay again. :)

Weekend break

Lovely little apartment with a great view in a good location. The only downside for me were the 2 sets of steep stairs leading up to the property. Being on my own, and on the older side, with 2 dogs and luggage, I struggled with these. I had a fantastic time though, with lots to see and do.

A romantic weekend

I chose this accomodation to celebrate my 10th wedding anniversary. It was a dream come true. Everything was absolutely perfect: a romantic nest only a stroll from the centre of Ventnor, bedroom overlooking the sunset on the sea. Great host! What more do you want? I highly reccomend it.

The single room was much smaller than we imagined, it was very poorly lit and laid out. We would sum it up by saying it was adequate and not uncomfortable but didn't wow us in any sense!

Unfortunately couldn’t stay

Sorry to say when we got to property, directions & check in was ok, but on opening doors there was a bad damp smell. On looking at accommodation there was evidence of mould, and looked like it had tried to be painted over. On opening the kettle, we definitely didn’t want to use it. Unfortunately decided we couldn’t stay for the 3 days booked. Let the host know via message, she apologised & part refunded on the advice of Vrbo. It ruined our stay really, as it took 3 hours of searching online & going into various hotels until we finally found one, at extra cost to ourselves.

Glorious RetreatA*****

Just a perfect place. Secluded but accessible. Clean. Pretty. View to die for. Everything you need. A wonderful bolt hole from which to explore Ventnor and the island. And if fit, you can walk down to the prom via a 'hidden' path from the green. 5 mins and a full breakfast and coffee can be enjoyed. Then take your beach stuff and enjoy the sand and sea below. 🌊. Watch the boats go by from the viewing balcony of the hideaway. Yachts. Fishermen. Jet skis. Listen to the gulls. Enjoy the tranquility. Just bring yourself and your clothes. St Clares Hideaway and host Judith provides the rest. Even filter coffee and a cafetiere 👍. Picture postcard perfect.
