Date of stay: 22nd April 2025
We stayed at The bay Cowell for 2 nights, 3 night were booked but it really wasn't for us.Cottage was very very tired, your could see the the staff had cleaned and it was a clean to the best they could do but the furniture and lodge it self was very worn. Covered the sofas using the spare sheets as these just looked really dirty chairs looked dirty and just really needed some freshing up. Mouldy blind in the bedroom I noticed this whilst In the hot tub. Bathroom just needs re doing, I just don't feel it should be advertised as a luxury cottage.On the Saturday I noticed there seems to be something leaking from the floor, but was unsure mopped this up and it had come back slightly the next Morning, we had gone out out the the day and at around 4 pm noticed the marks looked wet.We and informed reception, maintenance man came round immediately and was very nice and helpful also said it looked like there was a leak under the floor. Said would get someone to come and clean. But we had already made the decision to leave. Couldn't fault the staff and the children really loved the pool. But it's not somewhere we would choose to stay again. The location however is lovely and we really enjoyed the walks on the beach.

We had a lovely stay overall. The lounge bathroom and bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The outdoor sitting area was a real highlight, perfect for relaxing. The hot tub was a bit cool at first, but it warmed up after a while. The kitchen design could be better, though.

Date of stay: 27th September 2019
We had a pretty relaxing stay at this park and honestly, the location is spot on for a peaceful escape. The accommodation was top-notch, especially loved the hot tub and the privacy it offered - perfect for unwinding. However, getting to the lodge was a bit of a pain since theres no direct path from the car park, so lugging bags up steps and along uneven paths was a bit of a chore, especially with heavy cases. Nighttime was a bit frustrating too; the site is poorly lit and for most of our stay, there were no lights at all, which made navigating the steps tricky - daytime visibility is fine, but at night its a different story. The lodges themselves were spotless, though we did notice some dust under the beds in both rooms, which was a bit off-putting. On the plus side, the staff were really friendly and helpful. Overall, its a lovely spot for a quiet getaway, just a few tweaks needed for better convenience during night and luggage handling.

We recently stayed at a lovely spot in Colwell Bay, Freshwater on the Isle of Wight and honestly, it was fantastic. The cottages are beautifully kept and really comfortable, with plenty of space to hang clothes and relax. The bedrooms are huge and the beds are super comfy-perfect after a day exploring. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to cook proper meals and having a dishwasher and washing machine was a real bonus. The lounge and dining area felt very roomy, with a big TV, DVD and a nice table for meals. Outside, we enjoyed sitting on the patio during the day and evening, especially by the hot tub, which was a nice touch. The site was spotless and peaceful and everyone we met was really friendly and helpful. We only wish we couldve stayed longer, but well definitely be back-next time bringing the dog too, as there are loads of places she can visit!

We really enjoyed our stay at the beach house, even with the tricky weather. The place was lovely and perfect for relaxing. Only downside was the porthole window in the bedroom which made it tough to settle the little one. Still, a great trip overall!
