Comfortable country cottage a short walk from the pretty village of Godshill where you will find a fabulous collection of traditional tearooms and an interesting range of independent shops.

Perfect for exploring the south of the Isle of Wight – and just 4 miles from the coast – this inviting cottage makes a lovely holiday retreat for a family or a small group of friends looking for a quiet getaway in beautiful surroundings. Situated on a working farm with llamas, alpacas and plenty of opportunities for fishing, this pretty cottage offers delightful accommodation for six guests and is a wonderful base for keen walkers and cyclists.

The welcoming lounge is a lovely space for relaxing in, with exposed beams and a wood burner set in a brick fireplace, which you can snuggle in front of as you watch a movie or chat late into the night. The light-filled conservatory has views across the pretty front garden and makes an ideal space for sharing your favourite meals. The attractive kitchen is a pleasure to cook in and features a handy breakfast bar. There's also a charming ground-floor twin bedroom and a utility room with views over the back garden. Two double bedrooms with rural views are on the first floor. Stepping outside, the gardens have space for children to play and back onto the rolling countryside. There's a selection of garden furniture so you can enjoy some al fresco dining. The farm offers a range of activities including walking the llamas and alpacas and fishing in the farm ponds which are well-stocked with carp, roach and tench.

The pretty village of Godshill has some of the oldest buildings on the island including a thatched church, and is home to a popular model village and a range of great places to eat and drink. Nearby attractions include Shanklin Chine (4.5 miles), St Catherine's Down, the Isle of Wight Zoo, Carisbrooke Castle (all within 6.5 miles) and the thriving seaside town of Ventnor (5.5 miles).

A Lovely and peaceful place to stay. Some great walks right outside your front door. The garden was great to have for my grandson to burn off some energy. Any issues we had were dealt with promptly by the owners. I highly recommend a stay at Hazel Cottage.

Great location from which to explore by foot or car, lovely and quiet, local pubs within 1km walk. Generally well appointed. A great bonus especially for the kids, to be able to accompany the owner on her morning rounds of rare breed sheep, ponies horses, alpacas and llamas etc.. Owner most accommodating.

The cottage was clean and comfortable and fully equipped. We did feel cold at night and had to borrow another duvet from another room. Having worked in hospitality myself, I always made sure guests were welcomed personally. This didn't happen to us at any point which was a shame.

Property was clean and comfortable. Owners friendly and especially nice for the youngsters being taken around to feed the animals and look round the farm. Situation at Godshill was good allowing easy reach to all parts of the island. Also helps to be able to walk into the village to visit the pub (Griffin) which served good meals.

We had a wonderful time for our long weekend away. The cottage was a good base for our trips out. Beds and sofas were comfy and we really enjoyed eating in the conservatory together. Communication with the owners was good and the directions to the cottage were clear. All in all a good place to stay - thank you.

The setting is idyllic and there are lots of walks from the doorstep. A great visit is the Donkey Sanctuary: a 3 mile round walk. Theres also an opportunity to visit the farm where they have a wide range of animals. Godshill (about half a mile down the Lane) is well placed as its on the main bus route round the island and the east, west and south cRead moreoasts are quickly accessed. The cottage is unpretentious but comfortable, spotlessly clean and well furnished. A very relaxing place to stay. Hide

Have stayed in many cottages over the years - self-catering with our dog. I can honestly say this has absolutely been the best experience. Lovely space, great, quiet and peaceful but not too far away from civilisation.
