"Breakfast was very good with lots of choice . Room was fine but TV quite big for the size of the room. Shower very small. Lovely decor and bar staff and waitress very helpful. Nice being able to use the sauna. Pool and hot tub not yet in use "

"Parking is on an if your lucky basis, when we arrived we were told the swimming pool was closed until summer, this was not mentioned when booking on Hotels.com platform this was the very reason we booked therefore mis selling We were also told no chef this evening so no food, the entertainment offered was outside in the garden stage which means you have to listen to it even if you don’t want to Thursday was Jules Nelson who wasn’t too bad but on Saturday it was an act that had Cyrus in his name his sets were so loud and his tracks full of bass dreadful noise unfortunately, even when we shut the balcony door and window it could still be heard, a pointer to the fact that Ocean View Hotel is very old and tired and in desperate need for updating, we will be looking at some kind of refund for not being told about the fact that certain amenities like swimming were not available overall disappointing to say the least we travel to the island on business every week however we will not be booking into this hotel again "

"Our second stay at this converted chapel, very comfortably and tastefully decorated with quirky individual touches. The owner is a joy to deal with. "

"Excellent location, friendly staff and superb good. "

"Fabulous room with all those little details missed by so many hotels and guest houses, all present. Fabulous breakfast with quality ingredients from local butchers and bakers cooked to perfection. Lovely couple that ran it too. If I had to find one complaint it would be that we couldn’t stay there any longer. This is a fantastic place to stay and I would highly recommend."

"Woodland view is a lovely house in a very peaceful setting within the grounds of the old manor house. The younger people with us were quite pleased to see the wild rabbits out on the lawns most of the day. It is only a short walk (multiple routes available) to get down to the old village, which is very picturesque with its thatched buildings. The Chine itself is only a 15 minute walk through (when used as a short cut) and, once a ticket is bought, you can go through it as many times as you want within a seven day period.There were a few things that could do with improvement but this did not spoil the time we spent there.Before we left home I spoke with the owner, to check what sort of things would be supplied for kitchen and bathroom and was told that it would be a home from home so we didn’t need to take anything for those areas. Unfortunately when we arrived we could not find, in the kitchen, a hand towel, anti-bac cleaner or oven gloves. The fridge had one of the door shelves broken (we found it in the kitchen cupboard) and so there was nowhere to put milk or bottles other than in the body of the fridge, which was fine apart from limiting the space for other stuff. None of the knives were particularly sharp and I ended up using the bread knife for cutting most things.On a safety point, most of the electrical items had PAT stickers (portable appliance test) on them, but there were some that were dated 2017. I must admit that I don’t recall having seen stickers in other places we have stayed but, if you are going to use the system then it should be kept up to date and tested yearly.As mentioned in a previous review, the sixth chair is broken and is pushed into the very busy kitchen cupboard, fine as there were only five of us but it is advertised for up to six people. The kitchen tap is in need of repair as I felt it was necessary to hold the body of the tap if the spout needed rotating.The dishwasher top rack is almost unusable as the stops on the ends of the side runners are missing meaning that when the top rack is pulled out it detaches itself from the runners. If this is done when trying to empty the rack then you could end up with lots of broken crockery as it falls onto the lower rack.On a minor note the kitchen extractor fan could do with a clean.At the end of our stay we tried to follow the rules and put the rubbish out in the correct bins but could not find any bin bags for the recycling items (there were plenty of black bin liners). The notices around the bins state “no loose items” but ours were put in loose.Although there is this list of things that were “not quite right” we did enjoy our stay and would recommend it to others."

"Balcony view was beautiful. Close to lift to beach. "
