Woodyear House

The rating of 7 overall is given as the shower in the upstairs bathroom is still leaking very badly through the lounge floor when used and management company have been aware of this for many months I also made them aware again this time but again no response. If you need to use four bathrooms then be aware it is not be possible luckily there were only four people so not a problem. Great location in the centre of Cowes we had a small welcome pack for the very first time on this stay which was extremely nice to have on arrival.

Lovely house in great location. Unfortunately let down by one shower not working and the other leaking through the ceiling whilst we were there. Previous reviewers had made similar point so this is not a new problem. Very disappointing it was not fixed and management agency didn’t respond to our request to fix it during our stay. Other than that, very cosy and good quality beds. Kitchen needs more crockery and glasses.

Overall we had a lovely stay at the house in September. The space was wonderful (we were two couples and one baby), the three separate floors provided plenty of space for us all and the large living room was great with v comfy seating and views onto the sea. Sadly we experienced a couple of faults - the upstairs front en-suite shower leaked through the floor to the living room on the first morning and although someone was sent to clean up and take a look we were not able to use that shower for the rest of our stay. Luckily we had the spare en suite upstairs but again that shower overran it’s basin which meant we had to switch the water on and off during our showers so that it didn’t overflow. Kitchen in good working order and well equipped generally but not many mugs or glasses for a house of 8. Location was great - central and walkable to supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants & shops. Parking about 5min walk up a hill or 8mins with less of a hill. We would go back but would hope to see the plumbing issues resolved!

The Woodyear House is in a great location. The house is beautifully appointed. Very spacious and great living space and terrace overlooking the water. We had a great stay. We did have a problem with the upstairs shower which leaked through to the ceiling so could not be used the rest of the stay. THat was disappointing. Nobody could fix it before we left. Just make sure that is fixed for the next time. Otherwise was a great house.

We had a fabulous stay at Woodyear House. The bedrooms are beautifully appointed and the bedding is crisp and fresh. The beds are comfortable but in the lower double bedroom there was no way to join the twins together to make a double but we just tied the wheels together. All the en-suite are fitted in a very modern style. The lounge is lovely and the dip-dyed curtains and fabulous light fittings give it an upmarket feel. The kitchen is very well appointed with everything you could need including some oil, salt and pepper. The staircase is just spectacular. The balcony overlooking the water is a lovely Victorian feature and has full sun in the morning to enjoy your coffee. Having direct access to the water via the slipway and a private shingle beach with lots of shells to collect was a wonderfully addition. We had our two year old grandson with us but the fence made it safe for him to walk around. Being right in the middle of Cowes we could walk out rather than worry about driving for our evening meals. Parking is a slight problem but you can buy a ticket for the local long stay carpark for a week for £30 if you want to. Overal we loved this accommodation and would certainly recommend it to anyone.

Positives: We really enjoyed our time at Woodyear House, perfectly placed, nicely kitted out with a great facilities. The kitchen is well set up. Great location. Good bedding, towels etc and nicely decorated. Great sitting room. Good TV and services. Welcome bottle of wine and small bottle of milk. Good heating system. Negatives: Only minor points: The downstairs front bathroom (with bath) The bath was the only place were the water was lukewarm!!! Really couldn't work it out. There were 8 of us but only 3 coffee pods were provided - which was a shame and no soap in majority of soap dispensers.

Had an amazing stay over Christmas, would stay again. The only downside for us was the parking situation and also the yard not being enclosed (went straight down into the sea) to be able to let the dog out unsupervised for a wee ! Otherwise we all slept like logs and it had everything we needed, can't wait to return
