Cottage in Isle of Wight

About this property

Charming clock tower, part of a converted stable block, sleeping two adult guests in an interesting cottage in the pretty seaside town of Ventnor, a short walk from the popular sandy beach.

This property enjoys a delightful location overlooking the gardens of Ventnor Park. The town of Ventnor makes a wonderful base for a holiday, as it offers a wide sandy beach, attractive coastal walks, an array of shops, and an attractive botanic garden. The main beach is rightly very popular during the summer months, but a half a mile walk around the coast brings guests to the secluded beach at Steephill Cove, which is only accessible on foot, and therefore is a quiet haven from the main town beach. Due to the Isle of Wight s small size, all of the island s main attractions are within easy driving distance of the property, including Blackgang Chine, Dinosaur Isle, and the Garlic Farm. A set of external stairs leads up to the front door of this unusual property. Once inside, guests come directly to the open plan living space which occupies the main floor. In this charming space, with its wooden beamed ceilings, central staircase, and exposed brick walls, the lounge area has an inviting Chesterfield sofa, a warming wood burner, Smart TV and DVD player. The dining area sits off to one side of the staircase, beyond which the rustic feeling kitchen is equipped with a Belfast sink, oven, hob, microwave, and fridge with ice compartment. The cottage s bedroom, meanwhile, is a double room with built in wardrobes. Next to this room, there is a shower room with shower and WC. Please note that a wooden staircase leads to a mezzanine area, but for safety reasons guests should not alight the stairs. Outside, the property not only enjoys a sunny decked balcony with garden furniture, but also boasts a courtyard garden at the bottom of the external steps, providing guests with a choice of areas to enjoy alfresco drinks or meals in the evenings. There is parking available in the shared courtyard, and space to unload on arrival at the foot of the steps. Need to know: 1 double bedroom. Shower room with shower and WC. Smart TV and DVD.
