This pretty cottage is attractively situated in the beautiful gardens of Shalfleet Manor House. The Manor House is built of Island stone and dates back to the 1600’s. It is close to the centre of the village and surrounded by several acres of garden. In the gardens is a beautifully secluded heated swimming pool which visitors are welcome to use each weekday morning and at other times by agreement from mid June – mid September. (The pool may be used in May and late September but at these times the temperature cannot be guaranteed). Use of the pool is shared with visitors of Shalfleet Farmhouse and Barn. Visitors may also enjoy a game of tennis on the court in the garden. The Newtown Estuary is only a few minutes walk from the cottage.
