Escape with four friends or your family and enjoy some island life at this characterful cottage in Bembridge. This stunning home is comfortable and cosy, with two en-suite bedrooms and access from the pretty garden onto a route leading down to the sand and shingle beach.

The country cottage-style kitchen has everything you will need to prepare picnics or create hearty meals to be enjoyed together in the evenings. Curl up in front of the warming wood burner-effect electric fire in the lounge as you get cosy on the sofas and armchairs and watch films on the Smart TV. A four-seater dining table is also situated in this room. Upstairs are the two en-suite bedrooms. One is a twin bedroom with zip-and-link beds, and the other is a beautiful double with an en-suite bathroom. Out of the back of this cottage is a private, enclosed garden with patio furniture. Dine alfresco in the evenings or enjoy a morning coffee and plan the days ahead.

Compact accommodation. Easy parking to the front. Convenient for pub with an extensive menu. Access to beach difficult but very handy for coastal path walking.

Clean quite well equipped and comfortable cottage perfectly situated within a very short walk of the sea. Perfect for 2 people or a small family to explore the island. Please be aware that the stair case is very narrow and quite steep.

Very clean and quiet cottage. Well equipped . Maybe worth noting the twin room is really only suitable for children. Adults would have difficulty getting into bed due to lack of space around the beds. Nice to have plenty of hangers for clothes. The shower was a typical Mira model pressure not like a power shower but was OK. Nice to be able to walk Read moreon the coast path in a couple of minutes. If visiting the island again would not hesitate to stay at this cottage. Hide

Reasonably well-equipped, very clean. The shower let the property down in our opinion. It was the small shower head that was operational, not the larger rain-style one. Taking a shower was hard as the small shower didn't have sufficient water pressure behind it to produce an adequately strong enough flow of water - it was less than an aerated tap cRead moreould produce. The shower was a shame as it was the only thing that was problematic. The rest of the facilities, cleanliness could not be faulted. Hide
