Cleanliness received mixed reviews. Some guests found the property clean and well-prepared, while others reported the need to clean upon arrival and issues with the fridge/freezer. The overall impression suggests that while generally clean, there is room for improvement in consistency.
The location is highly praised, being within a short walk from Colwell Bay and the sea, offering easy access to the beach and local walks. Guests consistently appreciated the proximity to natural attractions, making it an excellent spot for holidaymakers.
Guests found the beds comfortable and the property spacious, contributing to a relaxing stay. However, some mentioned issues with the shower temperature and light bedrooms, suggesting minor comfort concerns.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the property being well-equipped for families. Some guests suggested the need for additional cutlery and maintenance of outdoor furniture. The presence of a travel cot and high chair was positively noted.

About this property
Chinefields is a stunning, semi-detached house nestled in the west of the Isle of Wight, where you can witness stunning sunsets. Positioned just paces away from the beach and glistening waters of Colwell bay and Totland bay, you can enjoy the beach or go rambling through the scenic countryside. This fine accommodation is ideal for a family or group of friends looking to explore a picturesque region of the island. Relax and unwind in the sitting room, elegantly presented with cream sofas, plush carpet and plenty of natural light from the French doors. The large kitchen with dining area includes useful cooking appliances and for coffee lovers a Nespresso machine. There are three rather glamorous and spacious bedrooms on the first floor, perfect for taking yourself off for a quiet read or getting ready for an evening out. The master bedroom at the front offers clean lines and coordinating colour schemes with bedside tables, lamps and ample storage space. Next, the family room plays host to 2 spacious single beds and mirror-fronted wardrobes, whilst the twin room continues this stylish theme seamlessly. Find the family bathroom at the end of the landing, brought together with cream, white and champagne-colour schemes uplifting your mood. Indulge in a hot soak in the P-shaped bath tub or choose to wake up to a refreshing shower each morning. Outside, make use of the sunny patio with a chilled drink or a warming cup of tea, while the kids play on the lawn. Stroll into the village of Freshwater to find a selection of independent shops mixed with cafés, pubs and the West Wight Sports Centre. Take a short stroll to The Hut, for a drink or bite to eat, enjoying the exceptional views of the coast. Enjoy golfing at the renowned Freshwater Bay Golf Club and take in the glorious scenery of high chalk cliffs and sandy beaches that draw many tourists to the area time and again. There is plenty of walking, cycling, horse riding (at Hill farm) close by and slightly further afield is Osbourne House, the former home of Queen Victoria, in East Cowes. A splendid getaway for an enjoyable holiday the year-round.
The village of Freshwater and Freshwater Bay make the perfect base for a great holiday. The main village is full of eclectic little shops, with a choice of lovely restaurants and some good hotels. Freshwater Bay is a picturesque location that boasts scenic downs, white chalk cliffs and gorgeous beaches, no wonder visitors flock there all year round! Freshwater Bay is the ideal destination for lovers of the outdoors including bird watchers, walkers and cyclists, with many wonderful walking trails over the Tennyson and Afton Downs.

Eve
The property was clean spacious with a lovely garden, in a great location, the beds were comfortable. It was really sunny on a couple of days despite only being the beginning of Easter. It would have been nice to have 6 outside chairs so we could all sit in the garden together.

And the iron didnât work so we had to go out and buy one wouldâve been nice if there was a mop there as well to clean the kitchen floor because the kitchen floor was very sticky when we arrived and there was a nappy in a nappy bag outside the front door maybe from the last people that were there but on the whole it was like the pictures and we had an amazing time in the house. Location was amazing less than a minute away from the sea and the beach
