Throw a ball for your happy hound and watch him chase across the lawn at this enticing country cottage on the Isle of Wight. Set in tranquil, rural surroundings near Wroxall, 2 miles from Ventnor, the three-bedroom hideaway offers reverse-revel accommodation and a lovely garden with peaceful views. Perfect for a family group with up to two dogs in tow, the cottage is well located for adventures at Ventnor Botanic Gardens and Steephill Cove (both within 4 miles).

Usher your contented canine in from the garden to discover your bedrooms and bathrooms at ground-floor level. These include a sumptuous king-size bedroom, with an en-suite shower room, a bunk bedroom, and a twin bedroom that can also be made up as a double by prior request. There is also a family bathroom. Climb the spiral staircase up to the first floor, with your delighted dog following carefully behind you. Emerge in an impressive lounge/diner, with a vaulted and beamed ceiling. Let him explore while you settle on the comfortable sofas to watch the Smart TV or discuss the dog-friendly activities of the day. There is also a lovely table in here for celebratory and special dinners. Head through to the kitchen/diner to feed your four-pawed pet and whip up a tasty meal for everyone else to sit down to in here or through in the main room. Open the door and follow your faithful friend out into the fresh air of the sun deck. Play games with him out the garden then sizzle supper on the BBQ and pour yourself a glass of something chilled to enjoy as the sun goes down.

Venture 2.5 miles to roam picturesque Ventnor Downs with your chum. Enjoy a long walk together out along the coast path from Steephill Cove.

Everything about the cottage screamed generosity. Not a car boot picture or ornament anywhere. Everything from the welcome pack to the towels, toiletries flowers, well equipped kitchen shouted a generosity of spirit that is, sadly, only too rare. A huge thank you from us all.

Perfect stay for peace and quiet. The cottage is absolutely fabulous being clean and comfortable. Sitting on the terrace is wonderful. Spiral stairs can be a challenge as the bathrooms are downstairs in this 'upside down' house but otherwise perfect.

The cottage itself was so welcoming and truly felt like a home away from home. We were charmed by the thoughtful touches, including fresh vases of flowers. A highlight was the huge hamper overflowing with delicious edible goodies even treats for our dogs and chocolate bunnies for the kids, which was a lovely surprise!

Garden Cottage on Span farm is a lovely place to stay. Cottage was clean and we were made to feel very welcome by the hosts. The welcome pack we received on arrival was amazing.! Being close to Ventnor it was easy to get to most attractions and the scenery from the cottage was beautiful. Look forward to returning to the Isle of Wight soon.
