Pleasant stay

Property was clean on arrival, check in was easy. Property is located in the country side, on the cliff looking out over a beautiful bay (albeit view from property is inland). Beautiful sunsets from site, and dark skies for star gazers. Generally located on the quieter side of the island

Lovely bungalow . Fantastic scenery

We enjoyed our holiday only downside it was a bit remote and had to use the car to go anywhere. The brochure said it was within walking distance to the beach but that wasn’t possible with towels , buckets and spades and picnic

Response from VrboOwner on 30 Jul 2022
Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. The bungalow is normally within walking distance of the beach but unfortunately the steps going down to the beach from the slip way, were damaged and we are awaiting the council to replace them, hopefully will be very soon. You can go down the actual cliff but difficult whilst carrying beach stuff! Yes, I appreciate that you do need a car to visit all the islands attractions, luckily, being an island, nothing is too far away. Although many guests love to just stay in West Wight and enjoy the stunning scenery. I hope you will come back again and enjoy all our beautiful island has to offer. With best wishes

Week at Cliff End

We were very pleased with our stay. Though the property is part of the Linstone Chine resort it is actually a few hundred yards from the main resort area and hence offers more privacy and better views. It was very clean and perfect for our requirements. The location is perfect with great walks literally from the doorstep. We used the bus service rather than the car as you can get to anywhere on the island via Newport.

Overall good experience

Brilliant serene location - especially if you are going there through Yarmouth Ferry. Value for money considering it's size, although general hygiene at the property could be improved. Host was excellent in prompt communication. Please note, the online listing for sea at 50 meters away could be mis-leading - as most of the travellers would expect a beach with access which is not true.

Sorry to hear you considered the general hygiene of the property lacking, as I do the cleaning myself and always make sure that every surface is thoroughly cleaned and of course disinfected, to make Covid safe. I have never had any complaints regarding lack of cleanliness, in fact quite the opposite, most guests say how clean it is.

11 Cliff end

Clean, comfortable, well equipped, no screaming children or barking dogs.. Good views when it was not raining or foggy. Poor lighting in the seating area- had to use torches to read by and bathroom could do with a shaving mirror Unlikely to return as poor approach road bad for car suspension and old bones

Thank you for your feedback, it’s appreciated. The light in the lounge area was on a dimmer switch, we have now replaced that to make it brighter. I’m sorry you found the speed humps in the road uncomfortable but I’m afraid they are necessary. The road has recently been completely relaid, as the potholes in the old road, were becoming impassable. The road is also used by walkers, many with children and so for safety’s sake, the speed of vehicles needs to be kept at a safe level. I do hope it didn’t affect the enjoyment of your stay too much. Once again, thank you for your comments. With best wishes
