This spacious and attractive apartment has been converted as part of an impressive country house that is located above the spectacular Alum Bay. Boasting panoramic views of the nearby sea and downs, this property ticks all the boxes for couples and families looking for that special seaside retreat. The coast and countryside available on your doorstep offer a vast array of walks that you and your beloved pup will love, certain to set those little tails wagging.

 

Situated on the first floor, this stylish apartment is bright and spacious throughout offering you and your pack a warm welcome. The open-plan living room is charming in design and is the heart of the property, where you can spend time as a family with your four-legged friend catching up on the day’s adventures. This room spills out through French doors onto your own private terrace where you can sit for hours with a glass of wine, the sun on your face, soaking up the fresh sea air. The apartment has two stylish bedrooms, providing all the comfort and relaxation you might need after a day exploring. There is also a shared lawn to the rear of the house where pups can play.

 

Alum Bay sits on the western point of the Isle of Wight and is home to one of the most picturesque beaches on the island, located less than 1 mile away. Framed by the iconic chalk stacks known as The Needles, Alum Bay offers beautiful coloured sands, dramatic coast path walks and breathtaking scenery for you and your beloved canine companion to explore. Freshwater Bay (3 miles) is a pebble beach protected by spectacular white chalk cliffs, where those who are keen water sports enthusiasts, can try their hand at surfing, kayaking, windsurfing, paddle boarding and more.

A lovely, spacious apartment and very comfortable. It's very well equipped and the decor is light and tasteful. Beautifully clean. The property is in a secluded spot and the views from the terrace (facing west) are wonderful - gorgeous sunsets on a couple of evenings. Lovely coastal walk nearby up to Tennyson Monument and then down to The Needles.

The apartment has the most amazing views over the farmland to the sea and there is plenty of parking. Everything was provided including milk and a bottle of wine. There are loads of places to visit on the island and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return someday.

The location of Tennyson Wing Cottage is absolutely fabulous. Although a bit tucked away in a small lane, it is easy to get to a nearby farmshop and bar. Yarmouth and Freshwater are only 5 to 10 minutes away. The cottage has all amenities for a relaxing break. The view from the living room and the terrasse is spectacular. We visited with two doggieRead mores and enjoyed walking onto Tennyson Downs from our doorstep. All in all we had a great time and look forward to coming back. Hide

We were very pleased with everything about this accommodation. All the comforts of home, including binoculars to admire the stunning view. Books, games and puzzles for all the family. Its a bit tricky to find when you first arrive as its up a small track. But good instructions were given. You will need a car to explore, although Tennyson Downs is lRead moreiterally on your doorstep with a short walk to Tennyson Monument. Hide

Second time for us at this property and we do love the views and the scenery and walks that are on the door step. Its a great base to stay at would love it to be just a little bit more comfy for wet days when you want to laze about and relax. Its a very quiet and peaceful place to be.
