Holiday
Pleasant outlook over farm land. Plenty of play space for children,close to the beach. Very clean lodge,kitchen could do with replacing and unlived in odour. Sandown itself was a disappointment,lots of buildings closed and derilect.The island was very clean and no potholes anywhere plenty of attractions to visit.apleasant stay.

Great stay here.
We really enjoyed our holiday brought our dogs with us who also enjoyed the long walks down to the beach. Lovely hearing the birds in the morning and watching the rabbits running around. If you want a quite relaxing holiday this is the place.

Definitely be booking again
Fantastic overall. Few suggestions: instead of welcoming biscuits a airer for wet clothes would be much more convenient. No hot water throughout the stay which meant showers where challenging. Also a mat for stepping out the shower would be great instead of the mop and bucket in bathroom. Well equipped Kitchen. Milk in fridge upon arrival great idea. Sleeping arrangements great, double bed mattress dips on one side. Outside decking area and grass area fantastic for ages. Will definitely be booking again.

Run down site,but area lovely with stunning views
Property adequate and clean, but in need of some T L C in particular the shower, bracket holding the showerhead all loose and floppy, so does not hold showerhead in place.also vacuum cleaner useless, no suction,better of using a dustpan and brush.Also maybe a dog friendly site but found no dog poo bins at all.

WE HAD A GREAT FAMILY HOLIDAY WITH OUR DOG TOO
Fabulous sunny 10 day stay here. Two adults, three children & a dog. Everyone was very friendly around the park. Great that a dog friendly beach was only 5 minutes away, we found a cut thru to a lovely quiet sandy beach! Lovely little beach resort, everything u need along the sea front - lovely restaurants & plenty of shops! We walked up to the top beyond the cows that are in the field opposite enjoying the amazing views! We visited many of the beach towns, ate in lots or restaurants, went kayaking & karting when it rained over the weekend but other than that we were on the beach everyday. Great for body boarding! Lovely place to run too. We loved our stay, thoroughly relaxing & perfect for our family. Thank you! First time to the Isle of White for myself & I would definitely recommend it, what a lovely little island - we will be back!

Lovely relaxed stay at the Crow's Nest
Just had a great relaxing break at the Crow's Nest with the family. The chalet is in a beautiful location tucked aaay and the peaceful views over farmland were wonderful. Had great fun with the kids spotting rabbits and other wildlife. Lovely walks along Yaverland beach with the dog and quite a few pub lunches were consumed! Inside the chalet it has all you need for a cosy evening in. We will be back!

About the host

Host profile image
Hi, my name is David and I own the Crow's Nest with my wife and my parents. We use it as our holiday home and so the chalet is always loved and well kept.

Why they chose this property

The Crow's Nest chalet has a privileged position at the North edge of the site, tucked away from pretty much everything, with views from the front doorstep to the North-West over the fields beyond.  You may get the occasional visitor during the day from the cows looking over the fence from the field next door.  You can sit out on the deck watching the rabbits, or enjoying an evening sunset to the West.
