From the moment we entered the home from home, we knew we would enjoy our stay. It was clean, comfortable and cozy. Everything you could ask for was there. We were 10 minutes walk from the beach, 5 mins from a great co op that sold everything! Loved it Didn’t want to leave

Beautiful house, so comfortable and superb location

The whole process, from selecting the property, paying and access has been effortless. The house was exactly as described and more. The kitchen very well stocked and because we had small children with us we dined in most evenings which meant cooking was no problem at all. Local shops in walking distance and Bembridge itself is just charming. Made for a very memorable holiday.

Our stay in Bembridge

We are home from a fabulous stay on the Isle of Wight, Bembridge is a great base with a local pub and various restaurants. The Co op has everything you need. This property was great for the 6 of us, plenty of space and a lovely garden. The house is very well presented, clean and spacious. We liked the 11am check out rather than an earlier one so we didn't have to rush our last day.

First visit to Isle of Wight

Ideal property for us as we had dogs. Kitchen was very well equipped and very spacious and the immediate access to the enclosed garden a definite advantage. Property was easy to keep clean and layout really suited our needs. Beds and linen were really comfortable and there was plenty of storage. Loved Bembridge as choice of beaches to walk dogs. Although we never met the property manager because of the regular communication new we could contact him if needed. Would suggest a welcome tray for guests to be able to make a hot drink on arrival.

MIDSHIPS

Very clean, well appointed. Only minor issues were trying to get the TVs to work but property manager most helpful and prompt. With 2 dogs would have been helpful to have had grass cut. But only small items not distracting from overall Excellent Review. We particularly liked the tide clock! Dogs loved the nearby beaches.

Multi generational family holiday for one week

Lovely bright property with ample space for eight of us - six adults and two children. Bembridge has lots of facilities including a fish and chip shop, a chinese take away, two COOP stores and several pubs but it is quite spread out and we found that our elderly parents struggled a little with the walking distances involved. However, Midships is only a few metres from the nearest bus top and on major bus routes which enabled us to leave the cars at home on some days and use public transport. Lovely spot for a traditional seaside holiday with attractions to suit most tastes just a short distance away !

Good holiday

Good size property to stay in, with good size rooms. Kitchen well equipped. (Twin bed mattresses in the smaller twin bedroom are a bit old and need replacing). Beds good size with a nice en-suite attached to attic room. Long thin garden which our grandson enjoyed playing football in. Bembridge is a nice area and Sandown beach, which is close by, was enjoyed by the children and family. We had good weather and a nice week away.

About the host

Hosted by Tom S

Host profile image
We have 3 children and 2 dogs and live in Sussex. We regularly visit the Isle of Wight for weekends and during the school holidays. We love our house in Bembridge where Midships is very much our second home. We really enjoy getting away from the hectic day to day life, being close to the beaches and the sea and enjoying the much slower pace of life it offers!

What makes this property unique

We love our house because it offers so much more space than it looks from the outside and very comfortably sleeps 8 people or two families with plenty of space for everyone. The location is fantastic being just outside the village to avoid the issues noise and restricted parking but still close enough to walk everywhere. There is a good pub just down the road (only 1 min walk!). The beaches at Forelands and the lifeboat station at Lane End are only 10 mins walk away. The fantastic local co-op supermarket is only 3-4 mins walk selling everything you need including fresh fruit and vegetables, wine and beer and it has an in store bakery too. In the opposite direction, the windmill and surrounding countryside are just 5 mins walk and provide access to some amazing dog walks and some breathtaking views across the Island.
