About this property
A studio apartment, close to the beach, located in the village of Ventnor. This neatly presented accommodation is laced with charm and makes a lovely setting for couples to enjoy a romantic getaway. Walk down the steps and wander inside, where you will find a far reaching open plan sitting room. You can sit back and watch TV on the comfortable sofa or dine overlooking sea views. A couple of steps take you to the well equipped kitchen with a grey finish, accompanied by a breakfast bar where you can enjoy a coffee in the morning. Joining the layout, a relaxing double bedroom sweeps across from this, the perfect space to unwind. A shower room completes the accommodation. Outside is where you will want to be. Victorian architecture surrounds you, and a beach lies almost on your doorstep - you can take a stroll whatever time of day you wish to. The seaside resort of Ventnor provides great walking and cycling opportunities, being on the Isle of Wight coastal path. The beautiful Botanical Gardens are well worth a visit and just a short drive away. Seaside is a wonderful cottage which can be enjoyed throughout the year.
The Victorian seaside resort of Ventnor is located at the southern end of the island and accessed via an array of steep winding roads set amidst scenery. Sheltered by St. Boniface Down, one of the island's highest points and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this town has a mild micro climate. A good variety of shops, pubs, cafe's and restaurants line the esplanade, whilst the Botanical Gardens are within easy reach.

Not one for anyone with walking problems, or cars with handbrake issues.

The apartment was very comfortable, well equipped and peaceful, and surprisingly quiet given that there's a flat above and neighbours next door. Being on the ground floor it was also very pleasantly cool which was especially welcome as it was an extremely hot week. It's lovely being so close to the sea and hearing the waves, and there are walks with beautiful views in both directions from the apartment. The drawback is that it's on a very steep hill and, if you come by car, you can't park outside or very nearby. We decided not to pay for a week's parking permit and instead parked, for free, in a road not too far away (Park Road) and this worked well for us. Another difficulty, (but this might be due to our ineptitude with such things!) was that we found the keysafe very difficult to open. On arrival we almost gave up trying after numerous failed attempts but then, miraculously, it opened! But no such luck when we left so we posted the key back through the letterbox instead. We've found keysafes tricky at times previously but have never before been unable to open one eventually. But, notwithstanding these issues, we loved the apartment and its location (in spite of the climb!) and wouldn't hesitate to return.
