“One of our number has limited mobility, the path to the cottage could be better with level path and for the paving to be wide enough not to have to partialy use the loose chippings.”

Also the bathing facilities were a little disappointing as the en-suite shower is very small and too high to get in if you struggle with your mobility and no shower over the bath which would be easy to install and make bathing options more flexible. ...

Also the bathing facilities were a little disappointing as the en-suite shower is very small and too high to get in if you struggle with your mobility and no shower over the bath which would be easy to install and make bathing options more flexible. We had an issue with a mouse which we think entered via a patio door left open, but then left drop[pings in the kitchen, & moved behind the kick-boards. owners supplied traps very quickly and the mouse was caught and disposed of. Stayed on farms before and never had this issue until this year. As mouse lived behind kick boards the kitchen needs a deep clean under the cupboards and to be honest needs some maintenance as one cupboard on a slope as floor seems to dip towards the door.

“I definitely recommend this place for anyone who is looking for decent place to stay in Isle of Wight.”

It has ample parking for two cars and a big inclosed garden . The property is nicely furnished and in good decorative order but could do with a little tlc externally.

“We had a lovely time staying in Swifts.”

Its bright & spacious living area was perfect for us and the views were fantastic. We were blessed with good weather so we enjoyed the peace and quiet to the full and the night skies were amazing. It would have been nice to have been able to open both sets of patio doors to allow the breeze in on hot afternoons. A thermostatic shower mixer tap over the bath in the main bathroom would be a really useful addition as we had to wait to shower until the main bedroom was clear. The bathroom floor looks rather in need of replacement. The rest of the accommodation was great especially the new carpet throughout which was lovely. There was a distinct drain aroma from the kitchen which was rather unpleasant and pervaded the whole living area and needs to addresses ASAP.
Mrs Peavoy August 2018

“Though we found accommodation clean and comfortable we were disappointed when we left a message on the phone for owner to contact us and our call was not returned.”

Our concerns were regarding a mouse that visited every night around 11pm and ran around kitchen and living room. Though this did not worry is too much ,given we were on a farm, and knew to take precaution and wipe down work surfaces, we were concerned future families with babies crawling around the floor would be unaware this was happening.
Mr Coulston June 2018

“This is a beautiful cottage in a beautiful location.”

It's a little away from the busy touristy areas so it's nice and quiet. Daytime sounds only, birds; night time noise, none! Very easy to get to all the attractions on the island, and some lovely drives through the country side between the various activity centres. There is something for all aged to do; a good mix of fun-parks for the youngsters and lots of historical stuff to take in. The whole island is beautiful and unspoilt and the beaches are all fabulous; very clean.

Bank End Farm Bungalows

Ventnor 2.3 miles. Two spectacularly positioned semi-detached coastal bungalows, both with breathtaking far-reaching coastal views across the English Channel, and set within the grounds of Bank End Farm, Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. With direct access through the farm onto the coastal footpath, you are only a short walk away from small coves and secluded beaches on the south coast of the island. Love and care has been put into these bungalows, with exposed beams throughout, together with numerous patio doors and windows allowing both the light and those stunning farmland and coastal views to spill in, creating a wonderfully peaceful and welcoming family environment. Both have been furnished to a comfortable standard, with Freeview TV, DVD players, books, games, DVDs and washing machines. Each bungalow has its own private decked balcony with table, chairs and barbecue, all positioned perfectly to fully appreciate the farmland and sea views. Both have shared use of the large gravelled and lawned rear garden area, with bench tables and climbing frame. There is plenty of off road parking, with two spaces each just outside of the bungalows. Directly from each of the bungalows, follow the buoys across the bridge and through the farmland, all the way to the coastal path to some stunning small coves, the most spectacular place for a picnic. The Undercliffe is famous for its Mediterranean climate, therefore enabling a wide variety of plants to grow all around. Just up the road Ventnor Botanic Gardens will be found, with its worldwide temperate and subtropical trees and shrubs. Throughout the year the Gardens hold many events and exhibitions to be enjoyed, as well as having a highly acclaimed café/restaurant. A few minutes’ walk along the coastal path will bring you to one of the islands hidden treasures, Steephill Cove, with its sand and shingle beach, and a row of fishermen’s cottages. Watch the small boats launch, hoping to catch crabs and lobsters for the locals. Some cottages have been converted into wonderful café restaurants, where you can sample their catch directly from the sea. These two bungalows can be booked separately for an individual family, or book both together for one of those memorable large family or friends gatherings.

About the location

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. A good variety of shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants line the esplanade, whilst the Botanical Gardens are within easy reach and well worth a visit. With plenty to see and do around the island for all the family, including 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.
