Sprawling parkland and seemingly endless grounds make this impressive manor house an exceptional choice for families holidaying with dogs, inviting your four-pawed pals to roam freely in the peaceful surroundings. Once a former deer lodge, the property sleeps up to 10 or 12 guests alongside two canine companions, making it ideal for memorable group getaways with the whole pack. Nestled within the Isle of Wight’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it sits just 1 mile from Wroxall and 2.5 miles from Ventnor, offering endless walking routes and wildlife-rich adventures guaranteed to set tails wagging.
Inside, flagstone flooring, high ceilings and exposed beams enhance the home’s timeless character. Begin in the practical boot room - perfect for wiping muddy paws after countryside walks - before exploring the generous living spaces. Guests can unwind in the welcoming lounge, cosy snug, elegant dining room or well-equipped kitchen. The lounge is sure to be a favourite gathering spot, where a wood burner and TV create the ultimate setting for relaxed evenings spent with feet (and paws) up. Upstairs, four versatile zip-and-link bedrooms and a charming bunk bedroom provide flexible sleeping arrangements, complemented by four beautifully finished bathrooms. Outdoors, the extensive grounds offer ample space for exercising dogs without leaving the property. A private garden features a lawn, outdoor seating and a BBQ for al fresco dining, alongside a pond where pets should be supervised. Private parking for three cars completes the offering.
The island’s spectacular coastline awaits exploration. Head to the sweeping landscapes of Ventnor Downs (4 miles), the island’s highest point, boasting panoramic sea views. Nearby Ventnor Beach welcomes dogs during the winter months, while picturesque Steephill Cove (3.5 miles) remains a year-round favourite for scenic seaside strolls.
