SQUIRRELSTONE

Location was good, on-site cafe was excellent, patio chess board was great fun, plenty of opportunities to see red squirrels and other wildlife, easy parking, nice size accomodation, lots of information was provided about the Isle of Wight.

Shame that Google wasn't up-to-date regarding the non-availability of the swimming pool, bins were full on arrival and they didn't get emptied (info about getting them emptied should have been provided in the blue folder), maintenance repairs weren't up-to-date (hook on the back of the bathroom door was hanging off, bathroom window would not close, a couple of the kitchen utencils were dirty, mould was present on the back wall under the sink,

A small and well maintained chalet in a holiday village with plenty of parking space.

Small things like additional loo rolls, coffee/tea sachets, kitchen utensil washing liquid were missing.

Functional and everything we needed.

Instructions for key safe were clear , I enjoyed self catering in quiet location, bed comfortable, kitchen and bathroom were fine.

Nothing to dislike here.

The people on the site were so nice and so friendly

The outside of the flat was in need of some work, weeds all at the front and the exterior could have done with a clean, also first impression it was clean but really needed good spring clean

Good location to visit family in Northwood and a great base to explore other areas. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels for our stay. Hairdryer and iron provided. Free wifi. Well equipped kitchen with everything you would need.

The chalet did need a thorough deep clean as there was a lot of dust. Particularly behind doors, plug sockets, and other nooks and crannies. Bins had not been emptied for some time. Kitchenware had to be re-washed before we used it. It’s worth noting for other visitors that do not know, that Gurnard Pines is now completely residential and some facilities (pool, gym etc) have now been closed- not a problem for us as we know the area.
