Welcome, we hope we have answered a few questions here, but if you have any more – please email us @ harrisonbristow@gmail.com. or call Annabel 07789534518

FERRIES – once you have booked with us we can help you with discounted ferry tickets,
Red Funnel from Southampton (end of the M3) arrives at East Cowes 45 min journey – I send you a code and you book yourself and receive a 15% discount.
Wightlink – From Portsmouth (end of the A3) arrives in Fishbourne or from Lymington to Yarmouth – I send you a booking form, you complete and return and I do the rest, this is billed separately and we offer a good saving – unfortunately I can’t give you a flat rate as they differ throughout the year, but do ask for a quote.

E L E C T R I C
Electric Cars
Some houses have EV Chargers; these are clearly stated in the description for the property and instructions will be left and the charges associated in the property you have rented.
Houses without EV chargers will have no mention of an EV charger in the description. This does not permit the guest to run plugs from the house to a car (Granny Chargers) in order to charge it; it is a fire hazard and and negates the owner’s insurance.

Following link takes you to EV chargers on the Isle of Wight : https://www.zap-map.com/locations/bembridge-charging-points/

E-scooters etc:
E-scooters and other small electric vehicles such as e-unicycles, e-skateboards and hoverboards are no longer allowed on Wightlink’s ferries or at its ports and buildings from today, Monday 2 October 2023.

The decision has been made on safety grounds because these items are not tested or regulated and there have been increasing numbers of reports of fires linked to their batteries.

E-bikes, electric wheelchairs and mobility scooters are not affected by the ban as they are legally approved for use in the UK.

E-bikes, like all bicycles, are not permitted in the lounge’s onboard ferries.

WHAT WE DO FOR YOUR SAFE ARRIVAL

Our cleaners work in bubbles, cleaning the same houses each week, this also helps keep the houses in great condition and notice anything from week to week.

If, however, you feel you need the house ‘fogged’ please get in touch and we will provide you with a quote for this.

There will be no ‘Welcome Pack’ of any food on your arrival due to Natasha’s Law October 2021 https://www.narf.org.uk/natashaslaw

If there is anything else you think we could do to protect your stay please let us know. We would like to help you feel as comfortable and safe as possible in order to enjoy your holiday here on the Isle of Wight.
