Reviews
The Cattle Byre has accommodation for three guests across two bedrooms, a double and a small single. It has two private outdoor seating areas, the rear enclosed garden can only be accessed from the front door. There are lovely views over the neighbouring fields to enjoy whilst you are having your afternoon tea. The additional seating area is a perfect sun-trap as it is walled on three sides and also accessed from the front door.

The open plan living-room with kitchen and dining areas is well laid out and has everything you could need for a wonderful family holiday.

Situated in a picturesque and peaceful spot just outside the village of Shorwell on the west side of the Island, Kingston Barns can offer an idyllic holiday to get away from it all. Tucked away at the end of an unmade track and opening up to a spacious communal lawned area for all four barns to enjoy, the kids will have plenty of space to play. With dogs being welcome at Kingston Barns and each barn having its own private enclosed lawn area it couldn't be more suited to the whole family.

Kingston Barns is made up of four adjoining barns, the three other properties are [The Dairy (4536)](https://www.classic.co.uk/holiday-cottage/desc-4536.html "The Dairy"), [The Stables (4537)](https://www.classic.co.uk/holiday-cottage/desc-4537.html "The Stables") and [The Pigsty (4538)](https://www.classic.co.uk/holiday-cottage/desc-4538.html "The Pigsty"). Each of which can offer separate accommodation or a perfect place to invite the whole family for a special occasion.

Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed at this property.

Sorry, we don't have any reviews to show you for The Cattle Byre yet.

Mr Melton

The Cattle Byre is in a lovely quiet rural location, well placed for getting to all parts of the Isle of Wight. It was beautifully clean. The small size of the second bedroom makes it unsuitable for tall adults.

Ms Povey-Turner

I was very happy with the detail and cleanliness of the property. Thank you from a lady holidaying on her own. I felt safe even though I was the only one on the site at the time of my visit. I had a happy time on the island and the locals I met could not have been friendlier as were the staff at The Crown pub were helpful and friendly whilst enjoying some evening meals there.

Ms Gurney

Enjoyed our stay,quiet location although quite a way out.The Cattle Byre is well equipped and very comfortable. We would choose it again.

Mrs Darbyshire

Another great family stay in this cottage. Great position to explore the west of the island. Always meets expectations.

Mr Holt

very clean and very nicely decorated first class.

Mr Dalton

Comfortable, well equipped and well presented cottages surrounded by countryside, peace and quiet. Each cottage had its own little garden with table and chairs.
The grassy playing area was excellent for outdoor games.
Spotted an owl flying into an empty barn … and bats.
A very relaxing place for a holiday.

Miss Collicutt

A very comfortable cottage set in a peaceful location. The cottage has ample parking and a private garden. The cottage has everything you need to enjoy a short break or holiday including a well equipped kitchen. Easy access to the ferry & a short drive to all of the attractions.

Mrs Spencer-Whilte

Avoid Kingston Barns if you have a pet that is not a trained gun dog or as mine is, very young and has yet to learn that pheasants are not a game (apologies for the punn) The cottage is okay - warm and plenty of hot water. But it had no easy access to the outside area that is advertised - bar walking across gravel and around the end of the building to access it from the other side.

Housham

Cattle Byre was a delightful holiday cottage and we were very comfortable there. So peaceful, all we heard was the birds every day. Everything was there for us and we felt very at home. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage. It was spacious and clean and lovely to come home to after a day exploring.

Mrs Newsome

Cottage in a lovely quiet position, very peaceful. Good location for getting around the island.
Easy access with key safe, cottage very clean upon arrival. Beds comfy, bed linen and towels good quality.
Kitchen reasonably well equipped but not if you seriously wanted to cook.
Plentiful hot water for efficient shower but as large boiler is situated in the living area, in good weather it gets very hot in there.
The wooden chairs and table in the garden area are quite worn with one chair strut split on the seat.
Nice chocolate cake left for us but would perhaps be better to leave small bottle of milk and a few teabags for guests not bringing them - we had ordered a Waitrose food delivery to arrive between 5pm and 6pm so no cup of tea until
then!
We had an issue with the toaster not working but the lovely housekeeper very quickly bought us a new replacement.
Overall lots of good points but a few minor issues that could easily be remedied.

Mrs Allman

We had a problem with a non working towel rail and an intermittent working not working ventilation fan. The shower head was split as we discovered on our arrival. Fair play that one of your lovely ladies turned up with a new one and assured us the towel rail would be fixed.... It wasn't...and just made drying towels difficult. The dishwasher wasn't properly cleaned the filter was full of old food .... It didn't detract from the holiday but we felt that the Byre wasn't really properly checked before we arrived. We will give you 7.5 but if the property had been properly checked it would of been 10.

Mrs Darbyshire

We booked all the barns for a large family holiday. The Cattle Byre was great and well kitted out. A lovely peaceful setting. Definitely recommend it!

The Darbyshire family.

Mrs Kerr

Ideal if you have a dog plenty exercise space outside

Mrs Jeskins

Lovely decor and very clean and comfortable.
Good parking.

Mr Servis

would have liked a door from living room to rear garden .Shower room should have frosted glass in window
not plane glass .

Ms Payne

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cattle Byre. It was in a lovely rural location and very peaceful. I enjoyed watching the pheasants in the field behind the cottage. It was very comfortable and everything we needed was provided for us. We would definitely recommend it.

Mrs Buckley

Wonderfully quiet, partridges and pheasants just outside each morning and wonderful walks
