Great value for money
The caravan itself was beautiful. There were a lack of cookware though which was frustrating - predominantly no oven gloves, oven trays or saucepans/ frying pans. Luckily we brought a tray and frying pan with us just incase. The bed was VERY soft which caused me a lot of problems but will probably be suitable for many. There were no coffee tables in our caravan either which was frustrating but we could see that other caravans did have them. The site itself wonderful. You couldn’t ask for a better location to access the whole island’s attractions. The food in the restaurant, while a little pricy, was brilliant. Being able to bring our dogs was great and they loved walking round the lake and surround areas. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the caravan itself preferring to explore. The local pubs are phenomenal and all within a few mins drive. We will definitely come back again but will probably pay a bit more for a better caravan or chalet next time

Peaceful and relaxing, just what we needed. Clean accommodation although sofa was a bit uncomfortable, cushions would help,but would definitely stay again. Rookley is very well maintained and staff are very welcoming.

Lovely cottage for a couple of nights, so spacious, comfortable, and functional. Wish I could have stayed longer and really made the most of it. Will definitely be back.

Easy check in and good communication from them prior to arrival. Cottage was comfortable, warm and peaceful. The hairdryer is listed as being included in the room, but it’s not *in* the room. You will need to give a deposit at reception and they’ll hand one over. Cash only deposit, and they don’t have ATMs on site - seems like a silly unnecessary inconvenience. They also text AND emailed about marketing to buy a caravan during our 3 day stay which seems a bit overkill. Shower pretty powerful and TV selection decent. Didn’t use any of the main facilities on site. Well located for everything on the island, I don’t think we drove more than 20 minutes to get anywhere which was handy.

Gone down hill
I have stayed here at various times over the last 5 years and have really enjoyed it. The club house was always superb and the cottages were well equipped clean and comfortable. This time because of an error in booking we had a static at the end of the park. The first night we ordered a takeaway only to find we had 2 forks. We called reception and some were delivered. The following morning we went to do a cooked breakfast. We had 1 baking tray. No grill pan and only 4 plates. There was no starter pack containing a cloth, washing up liquid etc so I had to walk to the co-op. All of these things were in order in my previous visits. The beds are so uncomfortable I could t sleep. The sofas are basically a cushion on a wooden board and are also really uncomfortable, the TV was really bad also. I loved my time in the Isle of Wight, but hated every moment in this site. No entertainment for the kids which they loved on previous occasions.. reception closes at 4:30pm… The only thing that amused me was how the flooding of the site was dealt with. A person stood on a pallet truck trying to move a railway sleeper with a rake to unblock the road…
