About this property

Tucked away in the Victorian seaside town of Ventnor, Isle of Wight is this stunning property, The Workshop. Located on the site of an old workshop, the property enjoys a fantastic location near the Isle of Wight AONB and a stylish and thoughtful interior boasting luxury furnishings and charming artwork. The Workshop is an idyllic base for a group of friends or a family of four looking to escape to the Isle of Wight. Step into your new home-from-home to discover a light and airy kitchen/diner that extends outwards into an immaculate external patio area, with all the necessary appliances needed to make your self-catered stay a success, this spot provides an intimate setting to cook for and enjoy mealtimes with guests; stepping out into the garden, uncover a charming summer house which can double up as an extra space to unwind or even a home office for those looking for a workcation! Unwind in the first-floor sitting room on a plush sofa in front of a Smart TV, perfect for some light entertainment after a day of traversing the local town; when your eyes grow heavy retreat to one of two delicately-appointed double bedrooms, both with Smart TV and serviced by their very own en-suite bathrooms, with one being located on the ground-floor. Explore your local surroundings, where foodies will be in their element as a superb selection of pubs, bistros, restaurants, and cafes await- ideal for when you don’t feel like cooking. If you fancy a day by the sea, head to the glorious sandy trails of Ventnor Beach where you can sunbathe, paddle the shores, or try your hand at kayaking or canoeing; alternatively, animal lovers will not want to miss out on the opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the area’s furry residents at Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary. Further afield, discover Cowes and immerse yourself in the history of Max Aitken Museum, or you can hop aboard a ferry to Southampton for a day out you won't forget. All of this and more awaits at The Workshop.

At the southernmost point of the island, the small Victorian beach town of Ventnor is reachable through several windings, hilly roads that are surrounded by stunning landscape. This picturesque hamlet, which is protected by St. Boniface Down, one of the island's highest points and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, has a very warm microclimate that encourages the growth of exotic and tropical flora all over the area. While the harbour provides a wide variety of fresh fish and locally-caught seafood, the gently sloping sandy and fine shingle beaches and coves give good facilities for watersports and offer a variety of breathtaking coastal routes to explore. With a superb selection of fine dining establishments, Ventnor is one of the most prestigious foodie destinations on the Isle of Wight.Bistros, pubs and shops along the esplanade and close to the town centre. The Botanical Gardens are within easy reach and well worth a visit, whilst around the island there are great walking and cycling opportunities, medieval castles, historic houses and a variety of gardens and waterfalls, as well as the unspoilt fishing bay. This great holiday destination has plenty to offer all year-round, and it's easy to see why it's known as the prettiest place on the Isle of Wight!
