We have recently got back from a great week’s stay at Tradewind. We were greeted warmly by Brian and Carol who gave us information about the local area and were very welcoming. When we entered the property we were wowed: the accommodation was clean, spacious and was a fantastic home from home - perfect for our family of five. We were even given a really thoughtful and generous welcome pack of groceries for our stay which was a real surprise. The property was well organised and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay – for example there was plenty of crockery and utensils and this meant that we were not having to constantly wash up like we have in some previous places we have stayed. We were also provided with essentials such as washing up liquid, liquid soaps, dishwasher tablets, washing pods, tea towels, towels and kitchen roll etc which was a pleasant surprise and meant that we didn’t have to go to the shops as soon as we arrived. The Wifi at the property was also excellent, which with three older children, was an essential. The property is located just a short walk from Freshwater Bay in one direction and a shorter walk to the nearest supermarket in the other direction. Although we were on the west side of the island, we were able to visit all over the island comfortably as nowhere was more than a 40 minute drive, so we had plenty to do. The property also has great outdoor space with a large garden table, plenty of garden chairs and a summer house for when it gets a little breezy! On our day of departure, we were given flexibility on what time we would like to leave which I thought was very considerate of the hosts. When the hosts arrived at the agreed time, we were unfortunately in the midst of a family drama having locked our keys in the car! Brian and Carol did not make us feel like an inconvenience – they kindly left us with access to the property whilst we waited for the AA to arrive. They even came back to us with a big bag full of packed lunch groceries so that we could eat which really does demonstrate how thoughtful they are - they made a stressful situation so much easier to deal with. If I were to go back to the Isle of Wight, I would not hesitate to use this property again, or the smaller property that is also owned by the hosts. I would highly recommend this property as a place to stay on the Isle of Wight. Thank you for a wonderful stay at your fantastic property!
