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!
Weston Manor B&B is just 2297 feet from the seafront in Totland. This charming manor house is set within a National Trust Heritage Site, dating from from 1871 and featuring its own chapel.

The hosts are lovely, clean rooms, comfortable beds, good location if you want to go to the needles.
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.

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 !
Exceptionally well looked after property. Cosy yet modern. Very well equipped. Really good location, in walking distance of Freshwater town and Colwell beach. Great breakfast. Carol was really helpful in making suggestions of what to do, and local knowledge was very beneficial. She improved our stay with her suggestions.

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.
Lovely comfortable house - beautifully modernised, furnished and equipped with a lovely garden. Close to Freshwater Bay, Colwell Bay and Yarmouth. Great walks on the coast path especially over Tennyson Down. Pretty garden and seating area outside.
Great location near Colwell Bay. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants - notably The Hut and The Waterfront. Lovely hospitable owners - great breakfasts. Good position to visit the Needles, Freshwater Bay and Yarmouth.
Warm friendly host Sarah served up a lovely 2 day stay for us in her beautiful cottage in Freshwater. Lovely bedroom & bathroom and a memorable tasty breakfast served in her wonderful conservatory. Highly recommended.
Excellent location close to the most scenic area and hiking trails on the Isle of Wight. Stand alone well furnished The host, Carol, was the best - very helpful. Great large breakfast served in the room.
Everything we needed was there. Shower very good. Kitchen well equipped. Good size tv. Near to Freshwater which is a very good area for the sea and walks. Parking very good in a designated spot.
The cosy flat, lovely setting near Freshwater Bay. Very friendly host Jane, wealth of local knowledge. Thoroughly recommend Baker's Retreat for a relaxing break on the IOW.
Great location, and the house is equipped extremely well, and so aesthetically pleasing. Smooth check-in and the beach is right there. Accessible by public transport too!
I liked the location of the property. Very close to the beach and other attractions. The weather was nice so quick access to the beach for a long walk was convenient.
