We had an Amazing stay at the cote. It was just what we were looking for. Lovely cottage, Simon and Nic were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. If you have children that like animals we had the chance to feed them whilst staying on the farm which was a nice touch. Will definitely be returning.

Recently stayed here, the place was fantastic, felt like a real cosy country home (so much so my children asked if we could have it back home). Kitchen had everything you could need and more. My wife loved the decor (she recognised the material used on the cushions/curtains straight away (must be a woman thing) lol. We'd definitely stay here again. I think the only downside was we had to leave our bikes outside (secure courtyard), so a little shed or storage somewhere would have been awesome (I don't like to leave our bikes out in the rain if we can avoid it). But overall it's a lovely place, and we would def look at booking it again when we next come to the IoW. Many Thanks Chris, Sarah and the boys

The ‘Cote’ was lovely although a little cold at times, especially in the early mornings with our young grandchildren. Nic and her husband were very nice and we were shown the animals and made to feel very welcome. The girls loved the donkeys Charlie and Chick especially! Sadly the weather was very wet so we couldn’t do a lot of the exciting things we had planned. We would certainly recommend The Cote to friends!
