Overview
Property code: 77276

An imposing four-bedroom property in the seaside resort of Shanklin. With many great attractions to explore from beautiful beaches to fantastic eateries, this makes the ideal location.

Within easy reach of the centre of the popular seaside town of Shanklin, this extensive Edwardian property contains period features and offers comfortable and welcoming accommodation for eight guests. A fantastic holiday retreat for a group of friends or a large family, this beautiful home has been tastefully decorated and stylishly furnished, and makes a wonderful base for exploring the beaches, resorts and countryside on the eastern side of the Isle of Wight.

 

After climbing six steps to enter the house, the characterful hallway leads you through to the elegant lounge where you can settle back at the end of a great day and relax with a good book, movie or a game on the PlayStation 3. There's also a cheerful games room with a pool table, ping pong table, piano and an assortment of board games making this a great space for children. The open-plan kitchen/diner is fully equipped and is a pleasure both to cook in and to share a favourite family meal. The impressive staircase leads to the first floor where you will find four light, cosy and relaxing bedrooms: two super king-size, a single, and a triple with three single beds. The beautiful enclosed back garden reached via some steps, has a delightful suntrap patio where you can enjoy a morning coffee or dine alfresco. There is also a useful and lockable bicycle storage shed with bicycle racks, ideal for the cyclists of the group.

A really lovely house in a great location. Everything you need and some. We were a party of 6 adults and there was never a queue for the bathroom as there are 2, kitchen has everything you need and the games room is a great thing to have. A short walk down to the esplanade with a nice beach and lots of amusements and places to eat, and in the old tRead moreown of shanklin there are even more. Would go back there again with no hesitation whatsoever. We had a fantastic week. We all loved it, thank you. Hide
