Willows - a barn that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom plus 2 on sofa bed [lounge]
Stay in this lovely converted barn located on a working farm between Newport and Yarmouth. Standing next to a sizeable pond that attracts ducks and wildlife, this really is a haven of peace and tranquillity that will appeal to those wishing to get away from it all.
Set in a rural location, the farm in which Willows is located is surrounded by open fields and countryside, providing the ideal location for walkers and nature lovers. Further, there are a number of farm animals roaming around the garden areas surrounding the property for the animal lovers!
Outside, there is a lovely garden area to the side of the cottage with garden furniture as well as ample parking outside the barn. There is also a sizeable pond in the owner's garden, which attracts birds and ducks and guests are welcome to use. The picturesque and family friendly beach and cliffs at Compton Bay and the historic town of Yarmouth are both within a ten-minute drive, and the island's county town of Newport is also a ten-minute drive towards the centre of the island benefitting from a variety of shops, restaurants and bars. 'Willows' is a truly excellent base from which to explore the beautiful island.

Perfect! But…
This was an amazing holiday with my two boys (13 and 10). It’s a beautiful converted tool shed/calf shed on a working farm. Ducks and farm dog to greet you every morning! There’s a table to eat outside, tumble dryer/freezer in the barn opposite. Richard, the owner, is super helpful. Zero light pollution so the stars and satellites are super bright. Great location from which to explore the island. Bathroom is simple but more than enough. The kitchen is small but we managed to cook every night and some mornings. There is space to fit a few shelves which would help with food storage (we had to shop every couple of days). Scales and a measuring jug would be helpful as would a second shelf in the oven.
The IoW as a whole is fantastic. We were perhaps lucky with the weather but spent time on a beach every day, caught crabs at Colwell Bay, monkey rescue, Shanklin Chine, footgolf, steam engine etc etc.
Truth is, it’s not a four person cottage. My kids slept in the bedroom leaving me on the sofa bed in the small lounge. This meant either keeping it as a bed for the two weeks or making it every evening but with the bed out there is very little space especially if the fold out table had to be extended for four. Also in the lounge there is a velux window with no blind so I was woken at dawn every morning. Finally it gets very very hot (again would help if the velux windows could be opened) .
Truth is I booked with six days notice and we had a fantastic time and I would thoroughly recommend it to couples and I would go back, but with a window blind, a couple of fans, some tweaks in the kitchen it would be perfect!

Very pleasant brief visit.
I stayed for four days in July 2021. First time visitor to the isle of Wight. The island has plenty to offer. Nice villages. Steam trains. Hovercraft. Beaches and walks. Some nice looking pubs and restaurants. The farm was quiet and has some very friendly dogs. The owner was also very nice. I would certainly come back again.
