We had a fantastic stay at Ivar Cottage, Tina could not have made us more welcome. We would not hesitate in recommending or returning again for another holiday.. Lloyd Family

We stayed at Ivar Cottage (not the summer house) over xmas this year and had a wonderful time there. The Cottage was clean and exactly as the pictures looked, it was fully equipped with things we hadnt even expected such as DVD's and a full kitchen. We was surprised to find everything was to such a high quality in the... More

We have just returned from a long weekend in the Isle of Wight for a friend's 30th birthday party and had a fantastic stay at Ivar Cottage. The lovely Tina couldn't have done more to make our stay more welcoming and we will definitely return and recommend to friends. We originally booked the summer house but Tina upgraded us to... More

Had a fantastic 4 day stay at this chocolate-box cottage. Extremely welcoming host with attention to detail. Wonderful welcome pack of food. The quality of fixtures/fittings was superb and it was hard to leave the cottage for days out!! Would highly recommend this property.

What a wonderful place to stay. Excellent surroundings and everything you could want - plenty of cereals, croissants, jam, etc.......... flowers on the table and chocolates too! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay especially the seafood platter on Saturday evening - and then dressed crab to take home too! We will certainly return and recommend to friends and family. Thank you...

My partner & I are frequent travellers, staying at many boutique hotels and have yet to beat the Summer House for the perfect summer hideaway, great value, set in an idyllic location, and the perfect place to relax. The accommodation is spotlessly clean, ( I couldnt find a fleck of dust anywhere and trust me I looked?!!!) and clearly a... More

First the good stuff. The Summer House is situated at the end of the garden and is in a lovely quiet location with great views of the surrounding hills. There is a caravan park situated immediately behind the Summer House but we did not experience any noise. The Summer House has decking in front of it which is great for... More
