We as a family stayed in Kingfisher, the location was ideal for us to get anywhere

We as a family stayed in Kingfisher, the location was ideal for us to get anywhere. It was quiet, set on a site by the watermill. We visited the mill and museum. The lodge had every facility and was extremely clean. The welcome tray was a lovely idea. We will be revisiting in the springsummer.

A family and dog friendly business and a great base for West WIght

We had a great holiday. A very clean lodge which provided all we needed. The layout is very good with an open plan kitchen/diner and separate dining room. The front porch is sheltered and useful, and the rear verandah/terrace overlooking the woods is a real asset as a great place to sit and relax and watch the wildlife. Having access to the Water Mill's facilities was very useful and we enjoyed using them. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and made sure we had a good holiday. The location is good for exploring the many activities and walks in West Wight which is one of our favourite places for a holiday. We had two children and a dog with us and we all had a good time!

A gorgeous setting

We stayed for two weeks in Kingfisher and really enjoyed our time there. We loved our visits to the water mill; joining in with weekend activities, playing mini golf, visiting the museum and drinking coffee in the beautiful cafe. We also bought some of the mill’s cherry oats; they were delicious. Nearby, we could walk our dogs in the idyllic woodland and explore the miles of countryside surrounding the lodge. The lodge itself was well equipped, nicely presented and comfortable. We loved that there was an eco-friendly vibe there even though there were a few occasions when we were without hot water. The owner was very helpful and we eventually managed the situation ourselves. Wendy was amazing. She was so friendly and helped us on a daily basis - sight seeing, local advice and island information. Calbourne is a great base for visiting all parts of the island. We particularly enjoyed Alum Bay (the chair lift and boat trips) and the Amazon Zoo. The car boot opposite the Sun Inn is also worth a visit on a Friday evening. The best pubs we visited were The Horse and Groom and The Blacksmith’s Arms. We also had a lovely walk round Cowes and would highly recommend The Fountain pub; so welcoming and fantastic for dogs. Shanklin was also a great place to visit with its gorgeous arty shops; it even had an all year round Christmas shop. We were a little disappointed with the beaches as online it said the beach was dog friendly but when we got there, there were seasonal restrictions. So it was a bit of a walk for my elderly mum. Overall, we loved our stay in Calbourne and would recommend it as a base for those who enjoy nature, walking and exploring.
