Overview
Property code: 85321

Enjoy a romantic break away or an active weekend at this wonderful one-bedroom ground floor apartment, located on the west of the Isle of Wight.

Enjoy the company of man’s best friend when staying here in beautiful Freshwater, discovering the Isle of Wight’s glorious beaches and fantastic coastal path with your canine companion at your heel. Happily sleeping two guests and one pup, the property lends itself perfectly to a small family of three (two humans and one dog, of course) who are eager to unwind amongst the area’s fantastic microclimate. Ideally suited to those who wish to leave the car at home, both the coast and the island’s fantastic Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are accessible within 1 mile – an excellent choice for daily dog walks!

 

Boasting everything the three of you may need to enjoy some time together, this single-storey property is a perfect choice for dog-friendly Isle of Wight accommodation. Whether your pup prefers to sleep in the living room, kitchen or at the foot of your bed, be sure to bring along their favourite dog bed for some home comfort. The lounge/diner is an inviting space for all to relax throughout colder months, complete with a TV with Smart services and DVD player for entertainment. However, we're certain that warmer weather will be met by more time spent in the suntrap garden. Set to lawn and fully enclosed, you can safely exercise your dog here whilst sitting down to an evening tipple.

 

Head out on foot (or four paws) to discover the Isle of Wight’s dramatic seascapes and AONB coastline. Walk 1.5 miles to reach the beautiful white cliffs that hug the island’s south coast and provide a route for walkies that you won’t be quick to forget. Take in the view at the Needles Lighthouse (3 miles) and follow the coast along the unspoilt Compton Bay (4 miles), all accessible without jumping in the car.

A well placed apartment, close to local businesses and facilities. There are some good restaurants nearby and a supermarket across the road. The apartment has everything you need for a holiday stay and everything was clean and tidy.

Great place to stay. The flat was spotless and very well equipped. Having a fenced in garden for the dog was much appreciated as was the off street parking! And the location was perfect though dangerous for our waists with the Co Op being so close for late night chocolate supplies.

Not customer ready. The cottage was functional. There was a heating issue that WE had to sort on arrival. We booked that cottage as per the photos online. No cushions on very uncomfortable sofa. Outside patio furniture was being used to protect a flattened metal something. Nowhere to hang washing. Shower height not adjustable. I am 5'2 & struggled.Read more Non smoking but persons from other flat did outside & the smell wafted through. I had to shut the door. Property was was white with no character. Hide

This cottage is in a great location in a lovely part of the island. Despite being in the high street it is really quiet and it is great to be able to walk to places nearby and leave the car behind.
