Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Saint Helens

Philip has been a great host, and we had an incredible stay. Not only was the house absolutely stunning, but the location couldn’t be better. Despite the weather still being chilly - the house felt warm and inviting, my favourite was enjoying the sea views from the comfort of the house while sipping my morning coffee. It’s clear that a lot of care has gone into making this place feel like a home. We’ve travelled with two young kids and everything we needed was already there. The welcome treats were a big bonus! We’ve enjoyed a bottle of Prosecco with our friends on arrival. I hope we can return soon.

This was our second stay. Everything was as nice as we remembered from our first visit. The flat is spacious and well-appointed, the location is private and quiet, and the hosts are friendly and responsive. What more could you ask for in an AirBnB?

Another fantastic stay at The Salt Shack! We absolutely love it there, each visit has been consistently successful, the house has been beautiful and clean with great things for kids to do. We struggled to leave as my 3 year old announced she “wanted to live here forever” and wouldn’t get in the car! It really is a fabulous place to stay and has plenty to do in the local area, the beach is an easy walk and Chichester is a short drive away. Highly recommend The Salt Shack! We’ll definitely be back again! ☺️

Fantastic. We had such a wonderful stay, location was perfect and everything was so clean when we arrived. The enclosed garden was perfect for the dog. We will definitely be back. Thank you

We had a lovely stay at this Airbnb! The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing visit. The location was quiet and convenient, and the host was friendly and responsive throughout. Just a couple of small suggestions: adding a curtain or blind to the front door would help with privacy, and the internet connection was a bit slow for streaming YouTube on the TV. Other than that, everything was great—we really enjoyed our time and would happily stay again. Thank you!

⸻ Review: We had a wonderful stay at this lovely countryside cottage. The setting was peaceful and relaxing, perfect for a getaway. The cottage was cozy, clean, and well-equipped—exactly what we needed. We really enjoyed our time here and would happily return. Highly recommended!

We had a fabulous stay in this spacious, comfortable and stylish home. Everything was exactly as described and more. Bread, butter, milk and wine, as well as an earlier arrrival time, was much appreciated. Very speedy responses from Geoff to any queries we had. Great house and host. We would love to stay again and highly recommend

The Old Chapel was the perfect spot for our family holiday, a beautifully converted property and with great access to all corners of the island. Lu was very helpful from booking through to our stay! Highly recommended!

We were looking for somewhere in the New Forest area to celebrate our wedding anniversary with family. This house was perfect for us all, 8 adults and 5 grandchildren. The house is in a beautiful, quiet location which is exactly what we wanted. The house has everything you need and more, fully fitted kitchen with massive island and dinning table. All rooms were spotless as well as the many toilets and bathrooms. We stayed in the master bedroom which is very tastefully decorated. The swimming pool was a big bonus, perfect size and depth for our Grandchildren and very warm. It also had a padlocked gate to keep the little ones out when playing in the garden. Our host Katie was brilliant from start to finish keeping us updated on the stay and very responsive to messages. She provided a welcome food pack of sausages, bacon, bread and essentials which was really appreciated. Katie even took the time to let our grandchildren help her feed her horses. Can’t wait to return!

Very clean and comfortable space. perfect for our family of 4 and our dog. Park is very peaceful and friendly. Thank you very much

Highly recommended! Superb host. Thank you.

Claire’s place was fab, we are four friends and four dogs. We had plenty of space, close to a number of dog friendly beaches and walks (recommended by Claire) and easy access to much of the Isle of Wight. Recommend the garlic farm for lunch.

We loved the lodge and this was the 2nd time we had come back. The windows were filthy, and there was cobwebs inside and out and just wasn’t very clean. We came back as the first time we thought it was beautiful. The skirting boards and bathrooms were grubby. Apart from it being dirty, for the amount charged, would have thought it would have been as nice as the first time we came.

Our family really enjoyed our stay. The added luxuries throughout the house were a great touch. From the snack basket, to the toiletries and the barbecue supplies. Everything was easy to use and welcoming. The uniqueness of having exclusive and nearby access to a pool and hot tub in a small property was perfect for our young family. We can put the kids to bed and enjoy the amenities together while making sure the kids are OK - something not possible in hotels and other resorts. The space was great. Clean, well-stocked and had everything you'd need for a summer retreat. The combination of the pool, dog, BBQ, pizza oven and included games meant our kids thoroughly enjoyed their time - us too. Definitely a winning combo. Thanks for having us!

What a wonderful peaceful location, with an abundance of wildlife visiting the enclosed garden with the star attraction being the red squirrels. The lodge was spotlessly clean, well maintained, quality furniture and very well equipped. Alison was an excellent host and we will definitely be returning. Sylvia, Nigel & Willow the dog.

Such a gorgeous little hut. If you’re someone who wants to eat breakfast whilst watching ducklings paddling across the pond, lambs jumping in the field and the sun setting over fields then this is for you. We loved getting away from all things tech - and the host was really helpful.

Our second visit here. Lovely house with a beautiful view. We hope you come back again soon!

We have stayed on the island many times but this was our first time staying in Ryde and in this apartment. The apartment was fantastic and had everything we wanted. The shower is fantastic - powerful and really hot. The beds are really comfy too. The apartment is beautifully furnished. The extra touches such as the welcome basket and kids duvet cover were really appreciated. Also very handy to have beach towels provided as well as various beach toys and accessories for use. The apartment is in a great location and we all enjoyed having the beach at the end of the road! It is ideally located for exploring the island by car or by public transport, with the bus and train station a 10 minute walk away. There are lovely views out of the big lounge windows and we enjoyed watching the ships passing. We had no trouble with parking and were able to find a spot on the road outside the apartment every day. Communication from Clare was great. We definitely hope to return.

We all really enjoyed our stay at Pebble Cottage. There were some lovely local restaurants, like the Crab & Lobster Inn. The house was cosy and the children loved the bunk bed!! Thanks guys

Really lovely staying. Perfect place, well equipped, clean, host very welcoming, communicative, left house very tidy and wrote tips about surroundings also left tea, food and some supplies. We felt home. Definitely will be coming back.

We have just come home from our second stay at Wishing Well. As before, it’s spotlessly clean. An open airy lounge, diner and kitchen greet you on the first floor with lovely countryside views and on the ground floor you will find two beautiful en-suite bedrooms with very comfy beds. Brilliantly located with Appley beach just a five minute drive away. Isle of Wight distillery is just next door offering the delicious mermaid gin and a small but really good menu. Nicola and Penny are wonderful hosts and very proactive when answering messages nothing is too much trouble. We love returning here and are already booked in again for two weeks later in the year.

Echoing other reviews, this is an absolutely stunning place. I totally fell in love with it - so unique, full of character, beautifully done up, and with everything needed for a stay. Such fun being lulled to sleep by the sounds of the sea. Thanks for a truly fab stay.

Had a fantastic few days in this really lovely house and location. The house was beautifully set out, very comfortable and had everything that a family needs on holiday. Brilliant location in St Helen's, near the Duver and local amenities too. Easy parking as well. Justine was super helpful and welcoming. We loved our stay and hope to book again. Our family really needed a break and we have come home feeling like we have had a longer holiday than we actually did. Thank you very much indeed!

We had a great weekend, thank you so much. The house is beautiful and made a great base for us. We hope to visit as a family again soon
