  • "Firstly we would like to applaud the owners for the amount of outdoor entertainment facilities available."

    Although we only made use of the table tennis (four tables in two separate barns), if the weather had been better we would have made full use of the facilities. The position of the three cottages is fantastic being just a stone's throw from the coastal path which we thoroughly enjoyed exploring with botanical gardens and lovely coves within easy reach. The cottage itself, is very small. The kitchen has everything you need but has very limited preparation worktop space approx 15" x 15". Likewise, the shower room is tiny. Despite being in our 70's and 80's we are slim and quite fit. However we imagine that "larger" or infirmed guests would really struggle in this tight space. Likewise, we think it would offer difficulties for anyone with a baby. Overall the cottage was clean (apart from some mould on shower tray and grease on oven top) and had everything we needed for a short stay. HOWEVER, as mentioned in a previous review, the double bed mattress was very uncomfortable. Neither my wife or I had a good night in the 5 days. The mattress is hard with the springs noticeable when laying. Also, we did not enjoy sitting on the small sofa - it's ok for a brief sit down but with the inclement weather we did have a couple of uncomfortable evenings watching TV. Such a shame - if it hadn't been for the bed and sofa it would have been a truly perfect stay and warranted five stars.

  • "The shower was not very clean with black mild around the base."

    Bath room very small just about three feet wide and six foot long. Settee very uncomfortable and old. Bed not very comfortable and we found it inconvenient having the toilet down stairs. But the position was lovely and only a field away from the sea.

The property

Ventnor 1.5 miles.

Fisherman's Cottage is an immaculate, detached cottage resting near a beach on the outskirts of Ventnor, on the Isle of Wight, enjoying coastal views.

This small, detached Island Stone cottage has one double bedroom and an open plan living space with underfloor heating, where a kitchen and dining area lead through to a fantastic sitting area in a conservatory to the front of the cottage.

The shower room also has underfloor heating and is on the ground floor, meaning the bedroom is the only room upstairs.

Outside is a private gravelled garden with a table, chairs, and a barbecue so you can enjoy the stunning coastal views over a drink and dinner in the sunshine.

The cottage also enjoys the shared use of a games room and lockable bike storage.

Escape with your loved one to Fisherman's Cottage.

Bank End Farm Cottages

Bank End Farm Cottages are three outstanding cottages set within an attractive open courtyard, with spectacular coastal views and direct access onto the Isle of Wight Coastal Path. These striking holiday cottages are just a short walk away from the small coves and secluded beaches of the south coast of the Isle of Wight, and are situated within 30 acres of farmland, having been lovingly converted from ancient Island Stone farm buildings, whilst retaining many of their original features. With the clever use of modern glazing, light now spills into each cottage, creating a warm and welcoming feel, as well as allowing in those stunning views of the English Channel. All three cottages have been furnished to a high standard, complementing the exposed beams with quality oak and pine furnishings. They each have their own private patio area with a table, chairs, and a barbecue, all perfectly positioned to allow you to fully appreciate the beautiful views of the surrounding farmland and the English Channel. A shared games room houses table tennis tables and badminton nets, and there is useful storage for bikes available, as well as designated off-road parking spaces close by, along with additional undercover parking if required. The Ventnor Botanic Garden is only a short walk away, full of worldwide temperate and subtropical trees and shrubs. The area’s unusual climate is more like the Mediterranean, therefore enabling a wide variety of plants to grow and thrive here. The Garden also holds many events and exhibitions throughout the year and has a highly acclaimed café restaurant. A 10-minute walk along the Isle of Wight Coastal Path will bring you to the island’s hidden treasure, Steephill Cove, with its sand and shingle beach and fisherman’s cottages, who today still launch small boats hoping to catch crabs and lobsters for the locals. Some of these cottages have even been converted into wonderful café restaurants, where you can sample their catch directly from the sea. Bank End Farm Cottages are perfect for anything, from romantic retreats to a big, family seaside holiday.

VENTNOR

Newport 10 miles; Cowes 15 miles.

The quaint Victorian seaside resort of Ventnor is located at the southern end of the island and accessed via an array of steep winding roads set amidst beautiful scenery. Sheltered by St. Boniface Down, one of the island's highest points and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this charming town has a uniquely mild micro climate enabling tropical and exotic plants to grow throughout the area. The gently sloping sandy and fine shingle beaches and coves provide excellent facilities for watersports and offer a range of stunning coastal paths to explore, while the harbour sells a broad range of fresh fish and locally-caught seafood. Ventnor is one of the Isle of Wight’s most prestigious food destinations with a good variety of high-quality restaurants,
Bistros, pubs and shops along the esplanade and close to the town centre. The Botanical Gardens are within easy reach and well worth a visit, whilst around the island there are great walking and cycling opportunities, medieval castles, historic houses and a variety of gardens and waterfalls, as well as the unspoilt fishing bay. This great holiday destination has plenty to offer all year-round, and it's easy to see why it's known as the prettiest place on the Isle of Wight!
