Escape Away

We loved Escape Away. Lovely decor and provided a fantastic base for a family holiday. We booked Driftwood next door at same time to accommodate all family members and both properties provided fantastic facilities for all ages from 10yrs to 83yrs as well as 2 dogs! Location was exceptional - beach short walk and even less when we used the shortcut. Yarmouth short drive away was superb and any other days out were no more than 45 mins drive. Having use of the pool on site was appreciated and well used by our party and the hot tubs in each property were a great touch. Escape Away had all amenities within it that you would need and was clean and well furnished. We did have a small number of minor problems (broken furniture) but we contacted Classic Cottages and these were partially resolved. Provision of parasols outside for shade would have been welcome and even through patio furniture is provided sun loungers would be far more suitable and make sitting outside on the decking more relaxing. The properties do need the sofas replacing as these were so uncomfortable and a little shabby looking. WI-FI is not broadband and is only mobile WI-FI so connectivity is not great and makes streaming difficult due to buffering/slow speeds. Smart TV’s in both bedrooms would be beneficial. That said, we weren’t inside much due to the glorious weather and views down in the beach. Despite being part of a resort the property was tucked away in a quiet area and there was no noise disturbance and it was a very peaceful location. Despite the minor issues we would definitely return and are looking for availability for 2027. ...

Fantastic cottage in a peaceful setting (despite being on a 'resort'). just a short walk to beach. Super comfy beds, plenty of outdoor space and fully equipped. Would def return.

We really enjoyed our stay at Escape Away. We weren't disappointed at all and we would happily book again. The property was lovely with plenty of room and we couldn't fault it at all. It was like home from home. There was a lovely café nearby (Captain's Cabin) that we ate in regularly....

Fabulous property. The location is idyllic. Beautiful outdoor space with hot tub. Property was immaculately presented with a lovely little welcome pack and a gift for the children too.

We really enjoyed our holiday at Escape Away, the kitchen pack, milk in the fridge, biscuits, the towels all folded into animal shapes on the beds so lovely. The property is lovely, the garden, the hot tub. Total peace and quiet. Just a five minute walk down to the beach, we walked over to Alum Bay on the coastal path - beautiful. We loved our holiday so much we didn't want to go home. The West of the Isle of Wight is at the top of our list for retiring - hopefully very soon, thank you....
