A lovely setting on the upper green at St Helens, we were even treated to a cricket match on our first night. Very spacious location, set back from the road with a pretty front garden and loads of space at the rear with the well maintained rear garden. The accomodation did everything we needed. A lovely walk to the seaside. We had an authentic Isle of Wight holiday. We will be back.
