Beautifully appointed appartment

Beachside is a perfectly located apartment with uninterrupted views of the sea from the living room and balcony beyond. Karen and Robbie were fantastic hosts and were on hand to help with anything that we needed. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Great location

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful apartment overlooking the sea. It was very clean, comfortable and well equipped, and so relaxing listening to the sea. (And the sea was v warm for an October swim!) Definitely recommend.

We were absolutely delighted by this apartment. The decor is really stylish, everything is really comfortable and beautifully clean. A problem was flagged with the shower, but it was really only minor. The location is fabulous. We are hoping to return next year.

Lovely apartment in beautiful location

This lovely apartment was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. It enjoys spectacular views of Freshwater Bay. Early morning cup of tea on the balcony watching swimmers and paddle boarders was a real pleasure. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of storage space in the bedroom. Karen the owner was very helpful in suggesting places to shop and eat. She responded quickly to all of my questions and queries. This was a super place to stay. I would definitely recommend it.

Perfect in every way!

This lovely apartment is perfectly positioned for quick access to everywhere on the island. The apartment itself is wonderfully equipped with everything you need to make your stay comfortable. We particularly enjoyed having our meals on the veranda. Can’t wait to return!

October stay

We adored this property - location is absoutely breathtaking and so easy to sit and eat or rest on the balcony overlooking the sea. The flat contains everything needed and to a very high standard indeed. An additional plus is that the owners keep a close eye and are approachable and kind when help is needed. What's not to love? We really hope to go back one day in the Spring/Summer for longer swimming than we could manage on 10th October!

A clean, neat and well decorated flat with front and rear balconies to enjoy the outside life. A welcoming supply of milk, biscuits and bread was lovely. We enjoyed the comforts of the flat and at some point will return.

Clean, tidy, comfortable apartment with Sea views, perfect location. Highly recommended.

The apartment was easy to find and located on the first floor with 2 other apartments on the landing. It had a lovely sunny Sea facing balcony with cushions for the sun loungers. The apartment had everything we wanted with the owners kindly leaving us supplies of tea, coffee, milk, butter, bread, cookies and which was very thoughtful. The bed was very comfortable and we slept really well as the bedroom felt light and airy and had a 2nd balcony facing towards the road. The bathroom was decorated very tastefully and had a wonderful shower which worked well and good lighting provided in the bathroom mirror. The kitchen was a good design and had everything we needed, although we did eat out every night and a dishwasher was also provided. There is a Co-op just 5 mins down the road and a Piano bar and pizza wagon which visited on Friday right by the apartment. Very many places of interest to visit and worth joining the National Trust and English Heritage to take advantage of the favourable membership terms., (We have been members for years). Highly recommended for a comfortable stay for 2. We would love to come back as it felt like a home from home. Thank you very much Karen and Robbie, highly recommended apartment.

Lovely place in a great location.

The apartment was lovely and in such a beautiful location overlooking the sea. The owner left lots of useful information about the place and the island. We were so lucky with beautiful weather and saw lots of the island on bikes. The island is a brilliant place to cycle. We had an amazing time!

Beautiful apartment in a stunning location

This apartment provided the perfect base for a relaxing and restorative break. Our hosts were extremely informative and helpful. Freshwater Bay is a beautiful place in itself but also ideally situated in the West of the Isle of Wight for many amazing tourist attractions. We definitely want to go back.

Un endroit magnifique avec une vue grandiose dans une île restée sauvage

Notre séjour, malgré une météo moyenne s'est très bien passé. L'appartement est joliment meublé et très confortable. Depuis l'immeuble, de nombreuses promenades sont possibles. Un peu partout, sur l'île, vous pouvez trouvé de bons petits restaurants. Nous reviendrons une autre fois pour continuer la découverte des nombreux sites sous le soleil j'espère

Herrlicher Ausblick über das Meer

Wir können das Appartement Beachside uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen. Die Wohnung ist wie auf den Bildern. Der Meerblick einfach ein Traum. Zudem den Küstenwanderweg direkt vor der Haustür. Alles war sehr sauber und die Kommunikation mit Karen war stets sehr freundlich und unkompliziert. Von der Schlüsselübergabe bis zur Zurückgabe der Kaution verlief alles problemlos. Wir werden gerne wiederkommen.

About the host

Hosted by Karen McLaren

Originally from the North West, we live locally and i have worked for many years in the hospitality industry.

Why they chose this property

We have lived on the Isle of Wight for some time and have been looking for the "perfect" location. We bought Beachview recently and it has been refurbished to an exacting standard. It is a perfect retreat, or base from which to enjoy the West of Wight

What makes this property unique

The sea views are unrivaled, open the double doors onto the large balcony to experience breathtaking views, and all that is magical about the seaside.
