This two-bedroom property in Freshwater is the perfect seaside retreat for a small family plus two canine companions. Within 1.5 miles of sandy bays and Tennyson Down, your pups will love exploring the countryside, coast and dog-friendly cafes, pubs, and restaurants.
Inside, the decor is comfortable and homely with neutral tones throughout. After a day of activity, rustle up a meal in the open-plan kitchen/diner, or if you’re not in the mood to cook there are plenty of dog-friendly pubs and restaurants on your doorstep. After a hearty dinner, let your pup pal stretch out in front of the wonderful open fireplace in the dining room. Step through to the lounge to enjoy board games or snuggle up on the sofa with your favourite programme on the TV. When it’s time for bed, upstairs you’ll find a double room and bunk bedroom. Both rooms are light and airy with pleasant furnishings. In the morning, enjoy coffee on the enclosed rear patio with grassed area, where you can look back at the beautifully crafted birdboxes set on the exterior of the house. Let your pups stretch their legs and a round of fetch on the lovely, fenced lawn.
For a scenic walk, head to Totland Bay (1.5 miles) and stroll along the promenade to Colwell Bay where you can enjoy a swim in the calm bay waters. Fido can also scamper along the shoreline (seasonal restrictions apply). Alternatively, head to Tennyson Down (1.5 miles) and enjoy an energetic 7-mile coastal walk with your pup. Further afield, search for fossils in Compton Bay (3.5 miles) and let Fido run to his heart’s content on the grassy Compton Downs.
