RedButt House, Freshwater, 3 Bedrooms, WiFi, Garden, hotel in Freshwater

RedButt House, Freshwater, 3 Bedrooms, WiFi, Garden offers accommodations in Freshwater, 12 miles from Blackgang Chine and 16 miles from Osborne House.

Visiting Isle of Wight from California - I stayed mostly on my own at RedButt House, without a car, for nearly two weeks. I was aiming to relax, explore a bit, and think. I had everything I needed to be comfortable and entertain myself. This place made me feel I had a "real" home to come back to (or stay in) each day. Nearby Tennyson Down and Tennyson's Farringford house, Dimbola Museum and tea room, Piano cafe for breakfast, Freshwater Bay's beach, Compton Bay's dinosaur footprints, and the frequent nearby bus system were all so convenient. There is even a free little library at one of the nearby bus stop shelters - filled with so many books! The home was well appointed with linens and plenty of warm bedding, plenty of dishes and all I needed to make meals - even some herbs and spices. The dining room cabinet was filled with great books about the area and its local history. The nearby corner grocery shop was fantastic. One tip: I did have to stock up on things like garbage bags, toilet paper, and hand soap for bathrooms, but the nearby shop made that very easy. Even the Tesco and Boots were only about 15 minutes' walk away. I would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend it!

    The town centre is away from the beach.

    The town centre is away from the beach. There is an excellent cafe about 5mins walk away. It is The Piano cafe and I can highly recommend it. The Dimbola is an interesting museum and also has a good cafe but it gets very busy.

    Only downside was the weather but that was to be expected.

    Only downside was the weather but that was to be expected. Many things were closed or had limited access due to poor weather and flooding, again this down to nature, not human failure. Loved the Isle and so much to visit and see. Locals very friendly and you feel safe there, a lovely atmosphere everywhere.

    Beautiful, clean and a must to visit. We will go back. It was our first visit to the Isle Of Wight and we were so impressed. Lovely family run restaurants, friendly people in the shops, on the buses and restaurants. Beautiful country views and coastal walks.

    The location is excellent and a good starting point for cycling and walking. The apartment is spacious for two people and is well-equipped. With the windows open, you're close enough to hear the waves on the shore. TIPS: Take an eye mask for sleeping if you prefer sleeping in after 5 am! There is a super pizza van across the road - highly recommend - check for opening times. The same applies to a Travelling Bar on a bus it is situated close to the beach - 5 mins walk. If you like good coffee - take your own Nespresso machine (we did!)

    You don't go to Freshwater Bay for attractions, it is quiet and a bit run down, but there are other seasides close. Really great attractions like Alum Bay, The Old Battery, Tennyson Down, Yarmouth etc. are close by. Interesting town centre which is long and has individual shops, places for coffee, fish and chips etc as well as several major supermarkets.

    A wonderful destination for those who like to walk amongst stunning scenery with views of water in all directions, study birds, and see a variety of gardens with Mediterranean-type growth. This delightful, listed property has a huge garden in the middle of Freshwater, perfectly located for walking to the sea or onto the headland. The village atmosphere is cultivated by a combination of thatch, tiled and modern buildings with a Church and pub just along the road. The shops of Freshwater are also within easy walking distance, including an Indian restaurant with a mouth-watering menu! The bus service is frequent, so the car can have a rest too. An idyllic holiday location.

    The bungalow is airy, spacious, very well kitted out - even trays provided to carry food outdoors to eat - and situated in a peaceful lane, 10 minutes walk from the Bay, overlooking a field. There are plenty of places - front and back - to choose from to sit outside. A well-stocked corner shop is 5 mins walk away. The care which Carol and Brian take to ensure that EVERYTHING is spotlessly clean meant we had no health and safety concerns in this current Covid climate.

    A stunning character house with fabulous grounds and in a great location, a short walk to Freshwater Bay. The Cosy Wolf, was a fantastic place for a few days to relax. Our room was comfy and cosy and we had a fan. Lena was an exceptional host, very friendly and her breakfast were enough to last the whole day, with fresh fruit and yoghurt and a great choice, including her lovely homemade cakes. Would love to visit again.

    Rockstone cottage is perfectly located close to the gorgeous Colwell Bay and The Hut restaurant. The beds were super comfy and every morning we were served the most incredible breakfast! Denise, the host, was lovely and helpful and we even got to meet her gorgeous dog Nelson (don't worry - he doesn't roam the place if you don't like dogs and we didn't hear him once). We would not hesitate to stay here again!

    Great location near Freshwater, an amazing cottage, well presented and very clean, we were met by the owner Will who showed us to the property, a bottle of champagne and orange juice was a nice welcome, this is a 13th century cottage and the beams are very low, and the cottage has the quirks of a building befitting its age. You can get to most of the island in 25 minutes so it’s a great base.

    A well laid out, clean property in a quiet location, yet only a few minutes away from Yarmouth, Totland or Freshwater, with a nice view across the Solent. The property was also warm and cosy when the weather turned stormy during the first few days of our stay. Free parking opposite property, Wifi and Freeview are also provided. The two mini wines awaiting our arrival were a nice touch !

    The house had everything we needed. Beds were super comfortable and 12 minutes walking distance to store and ~12 minutes walking distance to Freshwater Bay. The property management company was extremely accommodating and responded promptly to messages. Nice, quiet neighborhood.

    Lovely location in Freshwater - it doesn't take long from there to get to other areas of the island. Even better, it's a short walk to the beach where you could spend most of your days enjoying the sun (when it's out!), sand and exploring the rock pools in the evening.
