Guests have enjoyed the ample communal space, garden, and the provision of toys and games for children. The property's charm and the thoughtful touches by the owners have contributed to memorable stays, despite some feedback on maintenance and cleaning.
Reviews indicate a mix of experiences regarding cleanliness. Some guests found the property very clean, especially considering it is pet-friendly, while others noted areas that could benefit from deeper cleaning or better maintenance. The presence of dust, cobwebs, and some unclean areas led to a slightly above-average score.
The location of Baytree Cottage is highly praised, with its proximity to the beach and local amenities. Guests appreciated the easy access to coastal walks and the quiet, convenient setting, which significantly enhanced their holiday experience.
Comfort levels are generally high, with guests finding the property spacious and well-suited for families. Some guests mentioned comfortable beds and a homely feel, although there were comments about certain furniture and mattresses being due for an update, which slightly lowers the score.
Facilities at Baytree Cottage are extensive, with special mentions of the variety of games and the well-equipped kitchen. However, there are several remarks about maintenance issues such as a broken window catch, dripping taps, and a need for additional showers, suggesting room for improvement.
Guests have noted thoughtful gestures such as welcome gifts including cake and dog biscuits, which added a personal touch to their stay. However, it is important to note that such gifts are a bonus and not guaranteed with every visit.
Nestled in the charm-filled village of Totland, on the beautiful Isle of Wight and with access to the sandy beach at Colwell Bay, is Baytree Cottage. This large, whitewashed cottage boasts an attractive exterior, with a garden wrapping itself around the perimeter and an arts and crafts feel inside. Well-presented throughout, it is ideal for families and friends looking to share a coastal break together. A mix of wood and carpeted floors combine with bright, uplifting décor to elevate your mood each day that passes. Rustle up a tasty meal in the spacious kitchen, fitted with sleek units and worktops, sip your coffee in the breakfast room and catch up on the morning newspaper. The living/dining room offers an L-shape sofa for relaxing in front of the fire and just off from here is a snug for the kids to watch TV in. You can keep a close eye on them as you tuck into a delicious meal at the dining table. The ground floor is complete with two twin bedrooms, a bathroom and a second sun room soaking up the garden. Climb the stairs to the double room, which boasts coastal views or choose to stay in the third twin bedroom. Lastly, the shower room offers a light, contemporary feel. You are in a fabulous position here in Totland village, with the 'The Hut' seafood restaurant easily reached on a balmy afternoon, popular among yatching visitors. Just a leisurely stroll to the glimmering shores when all you crave is delicious food and a romantic, coastal ambience; The Hut is open throughout the day in summer. There are many amenities available at nearby Freshwater and Yarmouth offers a lovely market square and car ferry links to Lymington. Both The Needles & Alum Bay Landmark attraction and the beautiful Tennyson Down which is great for dog walkers are only 2 miles away. A splendid retreat to choose for your next holiday.
Totland is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the west side of the Isle of Wight's coast, offering visitors local shops and pubs. The award-winning beaches of both Totland and Colwell Bay offer a range of activities, whilst a footpath will take you to Freshwater in ten minutes, where you will find its golf course and public swimming pool. Take a chair lift from Alum Bay and enjoy some of the views across the sand cliffs to the famous 'Needles' chalk stacks and lighthouse beyond, or explore the castle and harbour at Yarmouth.
