Amazing place to stay to explore the island. Sally and Sue the hosts are really warm and welcoming when we arrived, and the outdoor space to play football was lovely for my son. The cottage is accurate to the photos, and the beds were really comfy. It is a gem of a place lovely a quiet but then great location to explore the island - perfect in every way.

There is no better place to base ourselves on our Minimoon to IOW, in our opinion. Having stayed in the other cottages over the last 6years, made perfect sense to stay at Calbourne.As ever the hosts were as attentive as required, without being intrusive.Just another fab stay.RegardsMr & Mrs Stephens
