About this cottage rental
A charming and pretty converted medieval brewhouse, renovated in contemporary style with a quirky mix of modern and retro furnishing, and located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Dark Skies. You feel hidden away from the world as you look out at the amazing view.
2 comfortable and cosy bedrooms with blackout blinds -- the main bedroom (kingsize) is more spacious than the twin room, but both have very comfortable beds and good clothes storage.
2 well-equipped wet rooms, one ensuite to the main bedroom, nice hot showers and good pressure, and a thoroughly modern kitchen area -- with induction hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge, washer-dryer and all the cooking and eating equipment you need -- leading on to a dining area and beyond that to a cosy yet roomy lounging area. So comfortable you might not want to get off the sofa!
6 minutes' drive from the pretty village of Shorwell with pub and village shop, a scattering of other lovely little villages and pubs nearby, and close to lots of things to do locally: seaside towns, footpaths, beaches, water sports and several children’s attractions, including Blackgang Chine on the dinosaur-famous Jurassic Coast, Tapnell Farm for climbing, shooting, go-karting and more, and Robin Hill with its falconry, jungle heights, toboggan run and other adventures. Golfing, fishing and clay shooting are also on offer. The entire island is reachable within half an hour, with the exception of Bembridge, which is 40 minutes.
We are lucky to be within reach of some of the island’s best foodie restaurants and gastropubs — in Ventnor, Cowes, Yarmouth, Newport and smaller villages all around. Suggestions and recommendations are provided in the cottage -- and can also be sent in advance.
Private outside terrace with tables and seating and the most fantastic view, plus a dry-storage box for muddy boots.
Own drive and parking space for several cars.
The cottage looks over a lake that's teeming with wildlife -- and the view carries on towards the downs -- it's scenery that's hard to beat and a sense of quiet that's hard to find.

Lovely location. Quiet and tranquil but within easy reach of places we wanted to visit. Our teenage granddaughters loved their holiday, everything we did and the cottage. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped and i would have no hesitation in recommending this property.

A comfortable well presented holiday let with all the amenities you could need in an idilic tranquil setting, ideal for those who want an out of the way quiet relaxing time.Lots of wildlife around, red squirrels , rabbits , geese and an abundance of birds.A shame it did not have a tv but we watched everything we wanted on a laptop, although the Wi Fi is good I took a cable and connected direct to the router.Not the place to stay if you want to walk to restaurants or pubs! it is however in a good location to reach anywhere on the island within half an hour, the island roads are not for the faint hearted driver, can be very narrow!We would definitely book to stay again.

We had a great holiday here. Communication beforehand and when we arrived was perfect, self check-in was simple and everything was exactly as we hoped for. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable, and we especially enjoyed being able to sit out on the patio to watch the wildlife on the pond. The cottage is well placed to explore the Isle of Wight, with nothing more than half an hour or so away.

Peaceful country cottage. Very comfortable. Really enjoyed quietly watching the wildlife and the sunsets from the patio. A perfect retreat from which to explore the whole island.
