Meadow End is situated in beautiful East Wight countryside on the outskirts of the attractive hamlet of Alverstone and within an easy 10 minute drive of the sandy beaches of Sandown and Shanklin. The property enjoys beautiful views across open countryside towards Culver Cliffs and the sea can be glimpsed in the distance. This is a wonderful walking area and visitors can stroll directly from the cottage to access a nework of footpaths leading to the downs, riverside walks and the sea. There is also a pleasant walk into the nearby village of Newchurch which has a good public house for meals. Vistors are within a few minutes ride of a cycle path which connects with the centre of the Island and the coast. In the surrounding garden and fields of the cottage visitors can enjoy seeing a wide range of birds, plus red squirrels, badgers and foxes. A bird hide is within a 10 minute walk.
