Mike (United Kingdom)
Stunning house, perfect for our group of 9 adults
Amazing TV in lounge

House was quite warm would have been good to be able to control temperature other than by opening windows.
Location good and bad. Bad when walking after dark but can’t really improve this. Good as nice and quiet.

Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted the house suited your group so well and that you enjoyed the spacious lounge, multiple bathrooms, and the beautiful walk to Sandown.
Regarding the temperature, this is a newly built, well-insulated house, so it naturally stays very warm. We appreciate your feedback and will look at how we can make this clearer for future guests.
As for the location, we’re glad you enjoyed the peace and quiet, and we understand it can feel a little dark when walking in the evenings in such a rural setting.
We hope to welcome you back again soon.

Lights in downstairs bathroom go off too soon when you are in the shower. As there are only Venetian blinds there is some light pollution - not great if you are a light sleeper.

The discounted ferry travel through the Island Holiday Company and their great service was a bonus too.
Our only issue was with the televisions and WiFi. The WiFi wasn't great in the house and unfortunately the televisions currently rely on this. A simple switch to freeview should hopefully get round this problem.

Laurel Cottage gave us the ideal base for an extended family holiday and it is large enough for everybody to have their own space. We wanted for nothing, the cottage is so well equipped you need take nothing with you apart from whatever clothing you need. Newchurch is a lovely small community but lacking a local shop, that can be a blessing but if you run out of milk/bread/butter it can be tricky so plan you shopping ahead. However the local pub (walking distance) is good and worth a visit. We have been holidaying on the island since the hot summer of 1976 when our children were young, our holiday at Laurel Cottage was the best by far.

We were three families with four children (age range from 14 months to 13 years) and two dogs.
We think that Laurel Cottage is a super house - great for family gatherings. It is very well-equipped, especially the kitchen/utility room. It is clean, tidy and well-maintained. The garden is lovely (would have been even lovelier if the weather had allowed us to use it!). We found that it was a great base - all we wanted to do was within easy reach. I would thoroughly recommend it and would consider another stay in the future.
The only thing that worried me slightly were the wooden stairs and the potential to slip - not just the elderly(!) but someone coming downstairs carrying a baby for example.
