Merivale

The Merivale was a lovely bright, clean and very spacious house with a very useful utility room. The three bathrooms were also large clean and bright and the showers worked very well with plenty of hot water. We found the beds to be very comfortable and all the rooms to be spacious. However, as there was only the two of us staying for the week we used the downstairs Kingsize bedroom as our as our main bedroom and the downstairs single bedroom as a dressing room because there are no wardrobes provided downstairs, only chests of drawers in each room. Also just to add on a personal level for us we found it a bit disappointing there were no televisions in any of the bedrooms but we understand this may not affect everyone. Personally for us, we found the main lounge sofa and chairs uncomfortable and not very homely. However, the sofa in the dining area was very cosy and comfortable. We had our small dog with us that used the garden but on arrival we found it to be slightly untidy and overgrown so we contacted Classic cottages and they rectified it by sending a gardener around the very next day. Overall we would highly recommend this property and would consider staying here again ourselves. Being that it’s approximately one minute walk from the sea it’s a lovely place to take a stroll and a nice quiet area with the Old Fort pub, just up the road serving nice food. All the local Takeaways we ordered were very good and delivered on time. ...

We loved our stay at Merivale! It is so well located in the village and has everything you need. It has a well sized garden with a bbq and a great kitchen. All the rooms are lovely and it had great new bathrooms. We really enjoyed our stay and loved being so near the sea! Having been coming down to Seaview for over 30 years, we would recommend Merivale! ...

Absolutely beautiful home perfect for a family holiday by the sea. Well equipped for children and spacious and comfortable bedrooms. Child friendly garden complete with apple tree and swing. Seaview is such a lovely location - beautiful beaches, and we highly recommend the Old Fort for a meal, if you can bag an outside table you can enjoy your dinner overlooking the sea. Also there is a great 15-20 minute walk round to Appley beach where we spent hours, after a delicious brunch at The Dell cafe. We are hoping to be back again one day in the future! ...

A very comfortable and well-equipped property in a quiet village location a very easy and short walk from the large beach and close to Ryde. In our party there were five adults, a child, an infant and a dog. There was plenty of room for all of us and with an enclosed garden and stairgates fitted it was very safe for the little ones and the dog. The house is nicely kitted out, comfortable beds and modern bathrooms and perfectly located for the beach and nice walks....
