This beautiful farmhouse was built in 1672. It is a fine and little altered unique example of an Island yeoman farmer's house standing alone in its own grounds and works very well for families with a mix of adults and children. It also has a large wood fired hot tub in the garden and is located on the renowned Island attraction the Garlic Farm with onsite restaurant, farm shop, games room and tennis court.

Amazing little cottage

Booked to stay at the garlic farm for a little weekend break.
We booked the little Mersley cottage. Sleeps 10 however we just had 4 adults.
Wow what an amazing cosy cottage.
We arrived later than expected, but the cottage was open for us. And little welcome gift of chutney and garlic from the farm.
The cottage was very well equipped with all the essentials we needed including bedding and towels, shampoo and body wash, toilet rolls, kitchen well equipped with washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, tea towels, tea, coffee, sugar and fresh milk in the fridge.
Plenty of wood for the wood burner, which we had on both nights:
We hired the wood burning hot tub which was so lovely and relaxing.
We had breakfast on site in the restaurant both days. Great choice of food and a visit to the shop also where we stocked up on delicious goodies to take home.
We had a late check out of 11am on the Sunday morning, which was great as we didn’t feel rushed to get out of the cottage early.
I would definitely recommended staying in this wonderful cottage.

Whether you’re looking for a quiet break or hosting a party of 12 this is the place to stay. The cottages and main house are fabulous, there is a shop and restaurant on site with plenty of beautiful walks in the area and there is even a wonderful wood fired hot tub! If you decide to stay, you have to try the famous cooked breakfast in the restaurant!! Simply delicious!! Would recommend and we will definitely return again.

Very comfortable farmhouse accommodation full of character. Main bedroom with en-suite on the ground floor for anyone who might find the rather steep staircase a little challenging. Dogs can be safely let off the lead in the fully enclosed cottage garden. Well equipped kitchen perfect for anyone wishing to eat in.
Plenty of interesting walks on and around the farm. This place has a lot of history, not just about garlic, interesting though that is. Take a look at the stone age finds on display in the farm shop.

The Garlic Farm was a perfect place for a holiday. The accommodation was lovely, clean and with everything we could possibly want or need - and if we didn't fancy cooking, the cafe and restaurant provided wonderful garlic-infused taste sensations. All the staff were friendly and welcoming which made for a very happy stay all round. The Garlic Farm is also perfectly situated to explore the Island's delights and we had a great time exploring beautiful beaches, historic castles, churches and houses and breathtaking walks with stunning views of the lovely countryside and coastline.

A beautiful historic cottage with modern amenities. Traditional cottage flowers abound the location while a large secluded back garden provided lots of space for children to play safely and adults to socialise. The hot tub was an advantage but a little cool..
The kitchen was fully equipped and in good condition. The dining area is light and airy. A lovely setting with activities, all within a short distance of the cottage.The Garlic Restaurant provides delicious food by friendly staff-it gets busy! It has been a real pleasure staying in the Little Mersley Cottage and a big thanks goes to Melanie who helped us throughout the booking process and travel arrangements. Thank you to all concerned!

The Garlic Farm accommodation proved to be the right choice for our first visit to the Isle of Wight. The three houses we chose worked really well for our family group of 15 and all were comfortable and well equipped. We did have some issues with the heating system in the Little Mersley Farmhouse but these were resolved quickly.
Everyone enjoyed the tennis court and the games room and the children had fun on the play area. We all eat in the restaurant and the food was excellent. Everyone agreed that it was a great holiday and that we will return.

This cottage was excellent for us. We visited for a weekend with three generations of our family, 6 people in total. The youngest has the rooms on the tops floor, the eldest had the lovely bedroom on the ground floor, so no stairs. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could want. The lounge is cosy and comfortable. The dining room has two tables so we used one to eat at and the other for playing games. We didn’t use the garden as we visited in February but it was a good size.
Being located at the Garlic farm was great as it felt out of the way but with central access to all of the Isle of Wight. The Garlic farm was lovely and meeting peacocks in the grounds was very nice.
We all enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

I have discovered my most favourite place on earth! I love the garlic farm. I have stayed at in the garlic farm accomodation twice now, the first time in their milking parlour with 4 friends and this time in the farmhouse with 7 friends. I cannot fault the staff or the accommodation. Booking is easy, communication is always spot on and any difficulties are worked through without fuss. The farmhouse was beautiful, clean and homely. Beds and bedding comfortable and towels were all provided and a good size. Melanie popped in to check everything was to our satisfaction when we arrived. The staff are friendly and can’t do enough for you during your stay and the food in the restaurant is gorgeous. I have never had a disappointing trip to the garlic farm restaurant and I cannot fault the accommodation. I would highly recommend a visit. This has become our regular annual girlie weekend which kicks off the festive season perfectly.

I recently hired the Garlic Farm accommodation for my 40th birthday celebration.

The Accommodation team were brilliant at helping us put on an amazing event and catering to our guest’s individual needs. Friends and family members having been raving about the experience in the weeks afterwards.

The site is stunning, there are plenty of activities for children and adults and the accommodation is very well maintained. The communal yurt proved to be a real hub of fun and activity throughout our weekend.

We will not hesitate to book again.

Our family stayed for a week in Little Mersley Farmhouse and Mill Cottage. It was delightful. The properties were close and this was very convenient. The children enjoyed the hot tub and loved playing in the garden and seeing the horses in their stables. We all enjoyed the games room and being able to walk all around the far. The tractor tour was very interesting. Bothe properties were comfortable, had ample bathrooms and good sitting room. We went to the restaurant one night and all enjoyed that. With so many attractions within 15 minutes it was so easy to find stuff to do, even though our weather wasn't great.
All in all it would have been hard to beat

Great accommodation for us comprising of 6 adults and 2 children and a lovely setting with a large peaceful garden. The Garlic restaurant was a boon being at the same location. One of the bedrooms did not have anywhere to hang clothes which were then just laid on the other single bed which was not being used - not too much of a problem. Space was limited in that room but some wall/ door hooks would have sufficed with a few coat hangers - just a suggestion.
Extensive information provided beforehand concerning cafes, restaurants, attractions etc. - most helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at the Farmhouse and also the Cottage for our extended family of 15. The 7 sporty grandchildren loved the tennis court, football pitch and games room and the hot tub was in constant use. Although the weather was windy it was very sheltered in the valley where the Garlic Farm is situated. Both properties were very well equipped and had comfy beds. We booked a table at The Pointer Inn nearby for late Saturday lunch which we all enjoyed. Thanks for a great stay!

Hugo, Melanie and the rest of the team were brilliant to deal with ahead of our visit and ensured we had everything we needed on arrival. They went over and beyond to answer our queries and help wherever they could with flexibility on timings etc which was hugely appreciated.

We were a large group of 10 friends and the accommodation was perfect. Being lucky with the weather meant we could benefit from the fab hot tub and gas bbq whilst enjoying some alfresco dining!

I would highly recommend Little Mersley Farmhouse and would be delighted to come and stay again. Thank you!

The garlic farm restaurant is also great with lovely food and great service. Don't forget the walks around the farm too.

Our 3-night stay during the February half-term was really great. The farmhouse is well-equipped and very comfortable. The Garlic farm location is convenient for visiting the eastern side of the Island (Ventnor, Sandown, etc.) and various attractions like the Donkey Sanctuary, Brading Roman Villa, and the Steam Railway, but sadly the latter was not operating until later in the year.

We enjoyed really good service from the friendly and helpful staff, and they were particularly helpful arranging our ferry crossings, and then re-booking when some of the arrangements had to be changed at short notice. I have given the score of 5 in all categories except for Comfort. The only reason for marking this down to 4 was that we had a problem balancing the temperatures in the rooms when the heating came on during the first evening. A card with brief instructions advising how to set the radiator thermostats together with the best setting for the room thermostat on the landing would have been helpful.

We absolutely loved the Little Mersley Cottage. It was in pristine condition, really charming inside, lots of room for our ten guests, and warm and cosy. The team at the garlic farm were SO helpful - responding b immediately to all my queries, booking a ferry ticket and putting up an extra camp bed last minute. The garlic farm is lovely with an epic gift shop. Would recommend to anyone and hope to come and stay again!

What a wonderful place to stay, the cottage was perfect for our family birthday celebrations, it was so clean and tidy, beautiful surroundings, lovely log wood burner and hot tub. So peaceful and beautiful countryside views, will absolutely be back again. We enjoyed lovely breakfasts on site too.
The beds were very comfortable, although the single beds needed an extra pillow!
If you visit the IOW this is the place to stay

This was our third stay in the farmhouse. Over the years our family has grown into 8 adults and two children, and there was plenty of room for us all. The kitchen is well stocked utility wise with nice touches such as tea and coffee provided. The weather wasn’t great for us but there is so much to do on the Isle of Wight that doesn’t matter. The hot tub was a great hit! We look forward to visiting again soon

A group of eight friends who have all known each other for 40+ years and who all celebrate turning the big 6 0 this year have just spent a blissful four nights at Little Mersley Farmhouse.
Everybody was thrilled with the quality of the accommodation we found upon our arrival.
The setting is really superb!, very peaceful and tranquil.
In general the facilities were excellent , and spotlessly clean.
Taller guests ( I'm 6'3" ) would struggle a little if they didn't have the ground floor shower (which I did) due to the angle of the roof upstairs.
Obviously we were not here in the height of the season but from the farm house, we felt completely seperated from the day visitors to the Garlic Farm's other attractions which are situated not that far away.

Having in the past run a holiday cottage rental and B&B business with my wife , we know how much hard work and attention to detail and the owners have put in here to present the property in the condition it is and wish them every sucess for the future.

Fantastic customer service from everyone - our holiday was delayed twice due to Covid but never any problem pushing the date forward. Little Mersley is a great property, peaceful, dark skies, warm and cosy. The hot tub was fun and the secure garden perfect for our Labrador. Beds comfortable although upstairs was a little challenging for our family member who is 6ft 5in. We will definitely return.

We stayed as a family of 9 6 adults 3 children for the New Year we arrived to find a very clean and well-presented accommodation which was comfortable for 9 people. Melanie checked in on us very early on and provided additional information. The kitchen was very well equipped. The hot tub was a great addition and enjoyed by all. The only thing that was missing was adequate lighting on the path or around the hot tub as this was really needed on the dark evenings there is only lights on the steps that go up to the decking and no other lighting.

Lovely farmhouse for a family holiday. Cosy woodburner, well equipped kitchen (apart from a yorkshire puddings tin). A visit from the beautiful peacocks. A dip in the hot tub with a bit of patience to warm it up. Super location with lovely walks.

Thank you for a lovely stay here. The farmhouse had everything we needed and more. The house was clean and plenty big enough for 6 adults and 4 children. The outside space was lovely, room for the children to run around, along with a swing for them to enjoy. There is a large table and chairs outside along with a bbq, so this was lovely. The hot tub was very nice too!
Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Staff are very friendly and welcoming - thank you.
(It’s not a complaint, but we feel the kettle could benefit from being a filter kettle.)

Our annual stay at the Garlic farm! Little Mersley is a great cottage for a group, we were 6 adults and the size of the accommodation was perfect. Its always clean, up together, and has everything we need in a fantastic location! The icing on the cake this year was the wood fired hot tub!

A really lovely weeks holiday with 3 generations of family.So much to do on site especially if you are interested in nature.Great birdwatching and fun in the woods for the little ones making dens.
Melanie and Hugo were perfect hosts, always available if needed and anxious our stay was as enjoyable as possible.
We would like to come back again next summer but it is all booked up.Speaks for itself!

Loved everything about our stay, the house was charming, comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy a few days relaxing. Loved the hot tub at night under the stars! The food at the restaurant was superb, and we loved walking around the property - great views, lovely wildlife spotting. It was our second visit to the farm, and our first time staying. Would absolutely recommend it! We also really appreciated the anniversary card and Prosecco left for us!

Absolutely loved our stay at little Mersely farm house on the garlic farm. I have all my immediate family living of the lovely Isle of Wight but fancied staying somewhere different with my in-laws. We all loved it!

The cottage is beautiful and reminded us of a scene from the classic film ‘The holiday’ . The kitchen was the most well equipped we have come across. Everything you need. We made a lovely breakfast one morning and sat outside at big table enjoying the views.

The beds were very comfortable and all in all the property can be good value for money if there is a large group of you. We ate at the garlic farm restaurant a few times and all enjoyed what we had. Can be a tad pricey but you get what you pay for.

We hired our the hot tub as special treat and was shown how to use it on arrival. Just be careful though as it can get very hot. We enjoyed a couple of relaxing nights in there though before bed. The area is nice and quite and there are a few nice country pubs nearby. Pointers inn and white lion being two of our favs!

Thanks for a perfect stay

We would definitely return!

We had a fab time at staying at the Garlic Farm, is he cottage was perfect and big enough for 10 people and 2 dogs.

The facilities are excellent in the cottage and on site with a great games room. There is plenty of room to play football, cricket or any other game you can think of.

It’s a great location to go explore the Island. With walks directly from the cottage and short drives away- recommend the vineyard and the beaches at Sandown.

And finally it’s next to the garlic farm shop and restaurant which is handy as we love the shop and visit every year.

I would definitely be looking to re book and visits again...

We had a lovely 7 day stay at the Garlic Farm I’m the Little Mersley cottage. There were two families (4 adults and 4 kids) and 2 parents came and stayed for one night midway through.
The location is beautiful, the valley providing a lovely view and dark skies at night, we took advantage of this by enjoying the hot tub most nights. Our dog loved the garden which is a good size. Our kids loved the house, playing hide and seek, and especially the Games Room which is 100 metres away next to the yurts. We loved the log burner and the space to move around. The kitchen is large and the dining room a perfect size and location next to the back foot and garden. We cooked lots of meals including Christmas Dinner without any issues and we’re organised enough to get Morrison's to deliver our food the day we arrived. The Garlic Farm is restaurant is very much worth a visit and serves lovely food and we had a great lunch there on Christmas Eve. There is lots to do and see on the IOW but we were more inclined to relax and take the dog a walk locally although we drove to Sandown Beach which is nice a couple of times. We had a great time in a lovely location and are very happy with all aspects of our stay. We will be back!

We had a lovely time -- 2 families together -- in Little Mersley. The house was perfect for a cosy short break for all 9 of us. We loved the games room and hot tub. The cottage was very nicely furnished and the kitchen excellently equipped. It is very well located with good accessibility and a country-out-of-the-way feel. We are booking our next visit straight away!

Had another great family trip to The Garlic Farm, our second this year!

Last time we stayed in a smaller cottage but went for the largest property this time as more in our party. We weren’t disappointed, it’s a beautiful house and very well equipped and comfortable. Only slight consideration was that the large house isn’t as sound proof as the smaller cottages (we have a young baby) but to be expected from the lovely wooden floors and only an issue if you have light-sleeping babies and noisy adults!

As always the team at The Garlic Farm went above and beyond to make our stay perfect and we would love to return in the summer to make the most of the beautiful garden and hot tub.

Would again recommend this as a perfect family base for an Isle of Wight adventure.

Our gathering of nine friends and family, some from the UK and some from California, stayed for a week in early September. The house was beautiful and the setting perfect - a wonderful combination of old world charm and modern convenience. I would love to return some day and would definitely recommend the Garlic Farm, and particularly Little Mersley Farmhouse, for other visitors to the IOW. Loved it!

The booking process was very efficiently handled and a handy discount on the ferry was achieved. The property was ideal for seven adults and three young children.The accommodation was very comfortable and centrally located, the weather was fabulous and the children were on the beaches every day. The children particularly liked the games room with various games and the Wi electronic game. The owner's wife was welcoming at the beginning of the holiday and sought our views at the end of the holiday which were very positive.

We had a great time and the large garden was well used in the sunny weather. The flower meadow and the adult and baby peacocks made it even more special.
The accommodation was fine but the top floor is for short people only and the twin on the first floor is foot to foot so probably only suitable for children.

The Little Mersley Farmhouse plus the Milking Parlour were perfect for our large family group (including 2 young children).
The accommodation was well-equipped and clean. The Boswell family were most helpful and supportive. There was a range of activities offered by the Garlic Farm for children and adults. I can thoroughly recommend the Garlic Farm cottages for a great holiday.

Everything about the Garlic Farm is wonderful and the family can't do enough to make you feel welcome. We will definitely return again. We are a family of 7 adults and one child and there is more than enough room for all of us as it will genuinely accommodate 10 adults. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped for self catering accommodation! We have stayed in both the depths of winter and in glorious sunshine and we enjoy both equally. The Garlic Farm is well located to visit the whole island. We always leave wanting more which is the best recommendation anyone can give.

We rented the Farmhouse and 2 cottages for 4 nights and had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The accommodation is lovely and very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, making cooking easy if you're eating in, and there are also some great local restaurants, particularly The Pointers, for eating out. There are some nice signposted walks on the farm and the Games Room with table tennis, pool, table football and jenga was a big hit with everyone. Good location for visiting; Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor, Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle, all of which we enjoyed. The efficient, friendly team provided great service during booking and ensured we had an easy, relaxing stay. We will definitely return and highly recommend staying at the Garlic Farm.

We loved staying at Little Mersley Farmhouse which, for reference, isn't little!

We know the Garlic Farm well as frequent visitors so we were excited to stay. We stayed in the middle of winter and it's comfortable, very, very well enquipped and warm! The space is well used and four loos and three bathrooms make 'living' very easy for a group such as we had. The bedrooms and facilities are great and we loved our stay. We used the cafe for breakfast some days which was a real treat, and the house was plenty big enough to stay in and play games and cards as well as being a central base for the island.

The real game changer here though is the customer service. The team made it so easy for us to book with them, they kept in touch in an unobtrusive way, helped us enthusiastically when we needed it and were truly lovely. This carries through to the staff in the shop and cafe. It's truly a really lovely place to be.

*Winter. The only thing worth noting for a winter booking is that the farm is at the bottom of two roads called 'shutes' so when it snowed we were a little stuck until the shutes were gritted, but you'll have to judge the weather forecast for yourself!

We loved it. 8 family members celebrating a "When I'm 64" birthday.
A well appointed kitchen allowed to cook for ourselves on Friday and the superb Pointers Inn is a 20 minute walk for Saturday (do book). The farmhouse was warm, had plenty of space and it was great it was so close to the Garlic Cafe for a lovely Sunday breakfast.
Overall it met all our needs and the birthday girl is still buzzing.

We had a fantastic weekend spent on the garlic farm , with the minute you arrive we felt cosy& warm & homely . The Mersley Farmhouse accommodated all of us (10) and it was still plenty of private space - the house is perfect to unwind with friends & family, spending time in front of the fireplace and enjoy the surrounding nature.

We spent a lovely lovely weekend in the Farmhouse. Situated next to the Garlic Farm we enjoyed walks around the farm spotting Red Squirels. One reason for booking was because it was dog friendly. Accommodation was good, with cosy evenings around the real wood fire.
We would definitely stay again.

The cottage was perfect for a short break on the Isle of Wight. The garden is large and great for children with lots of energy! The house is definitely large enough for two families, the bedrooms are split over three floors and there's plenty of bathrooms. There is also a brilliant games room and tennis court. We will hopefully be back soon!

What makes this place extra special is the garlic farm restaurant and coffee shop are just a minute walk away.

We've stayed here three times now, and each time has been excellent. Hugo is very welcoming and makes time to say hi when you arrive. The Garlic Farm is in a great location from which you can explore the island and the cottages give you home-from-home comfort. Our children enjoy it, too - with plenty of space to run about, some childrens' play equipment, chickens and peacocks! There's wifi, and this time our cottage had a roku box so we could even watch Netflix in the evening! We haven't tried a yurt yet, but they look very appealing... maybe next year. Aside from the accommodation, the farm has a decent restaurant and a shop for all things garlic.

We have stayed at the Garlic farm many times - we have 2 hire 2 cottages, which works well for us. We really feel at home, and are always sad to leave. The children talk about it for months afterwards, they really have a great time. The staff are brilliant, helpful and friendly and make you feel welcome.

Location was lovely and the games room much appreciated by the children. The garden to the property was great and big enough for children to kick a ball around. Generally the house was very well equipped, although a further TV in dining room would have been useful so children could watch a different programme from the adults, especially in bad weather.
The lounge, although comfortable, was small and not really big enough for 10 people. The downstairs bed was rather uncomfortable and the slabs on the floor of the ensuite to that room were loose and it took a long time for the floor to dry.

Although we enjoyed our stay, we thought that it was expensive for the standard it offered.

Our group of 8 spent a very comfortable and enjoyable 3 weeks at this superbly located farmhouse.
The house was well equipped and very comfortable (great beds)
The farm walks along with the fabulous addition of the games room, tennis court and football pitch made it ideal for our young and energetic family.
Our hosts were superb and very attentive to our needs
It was really the location that made it for us. 10 minutes from Sandown beach and a similar distance to Newport and Ryde.
No hesitation in recommending this accommodation and hope to return next year.

We rented Little Mersley cottage for 10 old kids (in our 50's) for a week during the IoW festival and what a great choice, it was a fantastic property for a group, had everything you needed for the week and you could even eat at their wonderful restaurant and get a discount as guests. The 2 top bedrooms get a little warm but apart from that We had a great week. All the sraff were very relaxed and friendly. Thoroughly recommend it. Thanks Hugo

We stayed at the farm house for a long weekend with ten people. The house was fantastic, comfortable beds eveywhere, plenty of space for everyone and seriously dog friendly. We had a great time on the Garlic Farm itself too. The children loved the playroom and outside play equipment, the adults too, including the tennis courts. As most of us came from abroad it was very nice that there were tennis rackets and balls available. For a group of ten the house and farm were simply fantastic.

We had a family weekend to celebrate a wedding anniversary - location was lovely, weather was mostly fantastic and the garlic farm people could not be more helpful

This was our 9th family Easter break at The Garlic Farm Cottages and the standard of accommodation was, as usual, exceptional. The new games room was very much appreciated by our grandchildren who made daily use of this facility. The cafe and shop are a nice extra making an easy trip round the corner for a coffee and bit of cake (or a meal). The position, almost in the centre of the island, makes no problem of travelling round with good access to footpaths and cycle ways.

Had an amazing 3 night stay at Little Mersley Farmhouse. Surprise weekend break for my 83 year old mother. She had a wonderful ground floor bedroom and en suite and she said it was a terrific surprise and she had a lovely time. The farmhouse was gorgeous and well equipped with everything you may need and the grounds were beautiful with peacocks and chickens running around the grounds first thing in the morning. We also had our dogs who had plenty of room to run about in the farmhouse garden. We would definitely stay again.

Booking was easy, travel directions were clear and the farmhouse was impeccably clean and welcoming. We had everything we needed for a weekend stay and the sitting room was lovely and snug with the log-burner lit. We would definitely consider coming again, perhaps for longer next time.

A large family party of 25staying in 5 properties, all delightful. Great venue for multi generational gathering with something for everyone.The children had a great time, and we had a big family meal in Little Mersley farmhouse for adults, and then bbq the following day. Lots to do on the farm and on the island.

Little Mersley Farmhouse sleeps 10 but only has three bathrooms, two of which were ensuite so not ideal but we managed. To compensate however the sitting is warm and cosy and kitchen well equipped. The games room (table tennis, table football etc.) was the great success of the weekend for young and old alike so was much used by our group with ages going from 4 to over 70!
