"This little cottage was THE best for equipment that we've stayed in ."
...The bed was comfy and the lounge was like being at home....Maybe a little help to get rid of flies although I understand cos it's a farm and we've been on farms before so expected it.....We had a really good week and thank you for help with ferry ticket.......

"We had an excellent time at The Carthouse."
The accommodation was comfortable and clean, having all the facilities we needed, plus many more which we didn't take advantage of. Julie was an excellent host, providing useful information, without being intrusive. If we were to return to the Isle of Wight, we would definitely try to book The Carthouse again.

"Absolutely fabulous - the best cottage so far."
Every item of comfort and convenience is thought of. Beautifully decorated - I say that because it is so similar to our own home! Quiet but not isolated. Friendly, helpful and caring hosts. Can't recommend it enough. Thank you so much.

"Overall we received what we paid for, the cottage was comfortable with a very good outlook."
It is part of a working farm complex which is what we wanted.
Inside the cottage, it was not as clean as it could be, the kitchen was sticky and we wiped it over before we used it. The pillow on the beds were foam and not as good as they could be. The shower cubicle needs a make over, it's looking tired - but it works very well.

"We loved the location, far from the madding crowd!"
Although the property was on a very busy working farm, during a very hot, busy time of year, we felt welcome at all times. We were allowed to walk around the farm, which we did during the evenings. This was a privilege. We felt comfortable and safe in the property. It was a lovely week and we would certainly return.

"Cottage is lovely, very well appointed, equipped and clean."
Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts, we had a slight challenge with the heating - first time it had been used this year - they came instantly to try and resolve, when they couldn’t they brought additional heaters and organised a plumber for the next working day. Cannot recommend highly enough.

We hope the local pub survives, problems with staffing which was a shame their food is always excellent, we hope that by our next visit they will have survived and be up and running.

It was brilliantly equipped with everything provided for a perfect stay. The location was exceptional - on a busy, working farm and hosted by a lovely and hard-working farming family!

The cottage was perfect, they provided all we needed and so much more.

The enclosed garden was huge & thoroughly enjoyed by us and our 5 year old twins. We’ve already booked for next year, can’t recommend it enough.

"Lovely friendly welcome from Julie the owner, also a tray set for us to enjoy a nice cup of tea and a beautiful home made cake, we sat in the garden and enjoyed the sunshine and the tea and cake."
The cottage has everything you need, you have heard of the saying "Everything but the kitchen sink", well this had the kitchen sink as well.
The only thing you need to take is laundry detergent and fabric softener, this I guess is due to skin allergies. I would point out that the washing machine is just that, it is not a washer dryer, but that is not a problem, as there is a washing line with pegs, laundry basket and airers over the radiators for all your drying needs.
We really enjoyed our stay here, so much so we are hoping to go back later in the year.
