Overview
Property code: IC163

Delightful Grade II listed cottage dating from the 15th century, offering attractive period-style accommodation for three guests, located in the quiet hamlet of St Lawrence on the Isle of Wight’s south coast.

This beautiful Grade II listed period cottage dates to the 15th century and lies in the peaceful seaside hamlet of St Lawrence, on the south coast of the Isle of Wight. Providing a tranquil and secluded retreat, this is the ideal property for couples and small families looking for that rustic country getaway with their faithful furry companions. With an abundance of countryside and coastline right on the doorstep, be sure to leave no stick unturned whilst you explore the breathtaking scenery, glorious sandy beaches, and fantastic walks this region has to offer.

 

Situated all on one level, this charming cottage blends stylish furnishings with original features to provide a cosy home-from-home atmosphere. The pretty lounge is chic in design with a wood burner to cuddle up in front of after a day of tail-wagging adventures. Wooden flooring throughout means that muddy boots and paws can be easily wiped clean without worry or fuss. The two bedrooms continue the shabby-chic style of the property and provide a tranquil space to rest, ready for the next day ahead. Outside, the attractive patio garden is secluded for those nights where you prefer to dine alfresco.

 

The quiet little hamlet of St Lawrence is between countryside and coast and situated only 2 miles from the seaside town of Ventnor. With fantastic walks and local amenities available for you and your pup from your front door, what more could you ask for to get tails wagging? Positioned beneath St Boniface Down, the highest point on the Isle of Wight, Ventnor has a unique micro-climate and is a popular seaside resort. Offering a great selection of shops and dog-friendly eateries, this pretty town is a delight to visit for a refreshment or two.

Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week.

Our high expectations from on-line photographs and previous customers' brilliant reviews were surpassed. The Vestry has a wonderful atmosphere and we felt entirely at home with every modern convenience and with the most generous welcome food hamper. The log burner provided a homely feature against the chill of the autumn air and the shortening daysRead more. Nearby delightful walks explored the delights of old Ventnor with alluring paths meandering down to the sea. Hide

Character cottage in a lovely part of the Isle of Wight. Very hilly area so not suitable if you have trouble walking. Lovely small garden with plenty of seating to follow the sun around.

Property was very comfy cosy with lots of added extras and we received a lovely welcome basket with provisions for a fried breakfast and tea, cakes and biscuits. The property is situated in a lovely part of the island but due to steep hills and narrow roads walks without using the car are very restrictive

Lovely period cottage well situated with everything you could want and the best welcome hamper we have ever had. Phone call from owner making sure we had arrived okay and that everything was okay. Beautiful private garden area well equipped for sitting and chilling out in the evenings. Log fire if it gets a little chilly. Didnt want to come home.

Great cottage in a quiet location with a nice garden. We were very lucky with the weather but would have been comfortable if we had stayed in front of the fire reading.

Very nice location. In an excellent part of the island. Close to Ventnor where there is excellent eating local shops and some great pubs. Very central for going out to tour the island with good walks on the door step.
