We were really pleased when we arrived at our cottage. The place was really clean and all seemed quite new, everything is from ikea, from the forks to the furniture. There was a welcome pack of local food provided which included fresh bread, butter, bacon plus some cornflakes and marmalade. They had also provided a cot and high chair for... More

We stayed a couple of nights here and were very pleased with the cottage. the welcome pack was very comprehensive and all of local food. the cottage was very clean and had everything you required for your stay. some of the cottages are saved for owners with dogs. Farringford is a great area for walkers or a center for travelling.

NEVER AGAIN! 4 Years we have been taking the Grandchildren there but no more. Over Run with Dogs. Grandchildren aged 8 and 4 were so scared they wouldn't go out side and play on the grass which they did last year. The Chalet was dirty - 3 times we called them out to clean it and still they missed loads... More

We've just spent a relaxing and ebjoyable 4 day break in an Emily cottage. On arrival there was a grocery pack and the cottage was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The reception staff were always helpful and accomodating. Farringford is a great place to relax and to explore West Wight. There are numerous walks from the Farringford grounds and walks can... More

We stayed in one of the "Alfred" cottages situated around a small grass quad. Accommodation was fine, but a few more hooks and shelves would have made life easier in the bathroom and bedroom. We had a warm welcome at reception and a very practical pack of food and essentials in the property to get us started. Once you are... More

Stayed for a week in an Alfred cottage. Well-equipped, smart and clean with welcoming food parcel plus logs for the fire etc. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Pool, golf and tennis facilities were faultless. Only disappointment was the meal in the Justin Brown restaurant - hot bread rolls still frozen in the middle and inedible 'triple cooked' chips, which... More

We stayed in an Emily cottage; the cottage was clean, sufficiently spacious for 3-4 persons, located in a beautiful domain close to Freshwater Bay and town. Upon arrival, there were eggs, bacon, milk and bread; a DVD-player was provided upon request. A loyalty card gives you 10% of at the excellent Justin Brown restaurant. Would highly recommend!
