A fantastic little cottage with just enough parking space for two cars. lovely kitchen and bedrooms. The living room is very cosy, if a little low ceiling for me at 6'3".
I highly recommend this place as a base for your visit to the New Forest.

Have just returned from a lovely weeks holiday, the first time for us in this cottage. I will break the review down into 'points' to make is easier!
Positive:
Very quick check-in: went to reception in the Albert Cottage Hotel and one of the girls walked us to the cottage, quickly showed us round and explained everything, then left us to unpack. Didn't have to sign anything or fill any forms in!
The cottage itself: very well set out and decorated in a very sympathetic style. Plenty of room to move around with a small breakfast table, large dining table, good size main bed and loads of storage space.
Location: Set in secluded grounds away from the main hotel you can drive right up to the cottage and basically leave the car anywhere you want, even right outside the front door. It is very peaceful with no road noise at all. We had red squirrels in the garden on a couple of occasions and plenty of birds such as robins.
Service: Aside from the quick check-in, the staff at the hotel were also very friendly throughout - one night a fuse blew and 10 minutes after contacting reception a very friendly handyman turned up and fixed the problem in seconds.
Facilities: The cottage is extremely well stocked with utensils, cleaning products etc. There were loads of coffee/tea/sugar etc, and the lounge has a dvd player and good sized flat-screen tv.
Local area: East Cowes sea-front, and the chain ferry are a short walk down the hill, Osborne house is just around the corner, and the main road is a very short distance away which means it is easy to get to Newport and therefore anywhere you wish to go on the Island.
Negatives:
Only one - although there is plenty of seating it is in the 'old-style' and I would have preferred a nice soft sofa to curl up on in an evening, but I guess if the worst thing you can say about a holiday cottage is that the chairs were a little hard then I guess its pretty good!

this house was the dirtiest house I have ever seen ! The windows haven't been cleaned for years and the showers were full of human hair the garden had not been tidied up for years and the children couldn't play out in it , the hot water went on and off and the showers were either too hot or cold, the Internet didn't work and the garage that was turned into a bedroom had the boiler in that would keep you awake all night and cobwebs everywhere

Only book this place if you bring your own cleaning equipment and bedding. Really dirty in bedrooms and filth in kitchen. Months worth of dirt, grime and dust under and behind beds. Owners take no responsibility, have not offered a proper apology and take weeks to reply to emails. Pictures on website not at all representative of the property. A hostel, not a holiday home, in fact, we have stayed in nicer and cleaner hostels, with more professional hosts.
Management also owe us our deposit back, more than 2 months since our booking and not sign of it or response to our requests for it. Halcyon Cottages you owe us money. Really disappointing. We do not recommend this property at all. Do not bother, save your money and spend it somewhere else.
