  • A lovely period-cottage for seven guests set in a converted Victorian dairy barn
  • Part of a wonderful horse-riding school
  • Close to the centre of the Island, Newport, offering easy access to all the seaside towns and villages
Property code: 90251

Stay at this renovated dairy barn for a relaxing trip with your loved ones in a glorious rural setting. You’ll be two miles from Newport, the island’s principal town, and surrounded by lovely countryside you can explore on foot or by bike. There are plenty of on-site facilities to keep you occupied, including a horse-riding school, a bar/restaurant and a play area. Children especially will love meeting the farm animals that live in the paddocks surrounding the property. The accommodation has space for seven people over four bedrooms, so will suit a large family or a group of friends holidaying together.

This period property, which you’ll reach via a white archway, has an attractive brick facade. Inside you’ll find a cosy sitting room where you can watch films on the Smart TV, plus a spacious and well-equipped kitchen with a monochrome colour scheme. The cosy bedrooms are decorated in neutral hues, and there are three bathrooms including one wet room. You’ll have your own private garden, which is furnished, and looks over countryside.

You’ll find a pub 1 mile away and plenty of shops in Newport. Walkers and cyclists will be keen to explore the Isle of Wight Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which starts 3 miles away, just the other side of Newport. A visit to Carisbrooke Castle (3 miles) is a great bet for history lovers, while golfers will make a beeline for the scenic course just south of Newport. For a day out by the sea, head to Ryde (5 miles) or Sandown (7.5 miles) where you’ll find long sandy beaches for swimming, picnicking and partaking in water sports like kayaking and kite surfing.

Thank you Mr Buckner for your letting. It was a much-needed break for our family of 6. We loved the layout of the property and the bathrooms and kitchen were clean, modern and comfortable. We enjoyed the location and having the animals to look at however we didn't manage to book any riding as it was full. Our internet was not working when we arriveRead mored but Mr Buckner solved that promptly, We managed to visit most of the beaches and Osbourne House (twice!) . We hope to revisit soon! Thank you.
