This charming cottage enjoys a peaceful location within the grounds of an old manor house. Cosy and homely inside with a large lawn garden outside, it is the perfect choice for family holidays with up to four dogs.

This converted forge provides everything you should need for a memorable holiday with family and four-legged friends. Accessed via two sets of steps, the cottage is homely and welcoming with a large open-plan lounge/diner with TV for cosy evenings in with loved ones. The kitchen offers ample workspace for preparing tasty meals, which are best enjoyed in the beautiful secluded garden. Guests are also welcome to explore the pretty lake, which a variety of ducks call home.

Surrounded by the beautiful Isle of Wight countryside, this is a fantastic bolthole for walking holidays with the dog. Follow the course of the River Yar that meanders down to the south coast via the villages of Roud and Whitwell, proudly hosting the oldest pub on the island. Home to five Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this island boasts wide green downs, bright white stacks, low clay cliffs and mud flats, all waiting to be explored.

Good size for dogs and the garden is secure, with beautiful walks near the cottage. Could do with updating and a deep clean, however it has a nice vibe to the place and we enjoyed our stay. I would recommend, but with caveats.
