Set on a working farm with countryside views, this sun-filled retreat is perfect for families and four-legged explorers craving space, comfort, and a dose of rural Isle of Wight life. With farm activities on-site and easy access to the island’s beaches and top attractions, it’s a wonderful base for bucket-and-spade breaks or animal-packed adventures.
Part of a renovated stable block, this single-storey property occupies a superb corner plot with far-reaching views. Thoughtfully arranged with the living areas on one side and the bedrooms on the other, it’s decorated throughout with a warm, welcoming touch and soothing, neutral tones. The light-filled lounge opens to the garden, letting you savour the scenery or flop on the sofa after days at the beach. Rustle up meals for your pack in the well-appointed kitchen before gathering around the table in the dining room or dining al fresco on the patio. Three bedrooms promise a restful sleep for all; choose between two king-size rooms, one with an en-suite shower room, and a playful bunk room that’s ideal for younger guests. A fresh family bathroom completes the interior. A small private garden sets the scene for BBQs while little ones and pups play safely. There’s plenty to explore on the farm too, from feeding the animals to a children’s play area and fishing lakes, while private parking for one car with additional spaces on-site makes coming and going a breeze.
Guests will be spoilt for choice with walkies, from local trails starting from the farm to rugged coastal paths like Tennyson Down (16.5 miles), which offers spectacular views of The Needles. Ventnor (4 miles) invites you to stroll along its pretty promenade and explore the Botanic Garden. From here, it’s a short hop to Steephill Beach, which is dog-friendly year-round.
