An exquisite, chocolate-box thatched cottage, this charming Isle of Wight retreat is overflowing with character. Set in the tranquil village of Calbourne, 5 miles from Newport and 6.5 miles from Freshwater, it is in an ideal location for country walks and days out by the sea. Take the children through the back garden to the village cricket pitch and play area, or go further afield to the farm-themed amusement attraction at Tapnell Farm Park, 4 miles away. Pack buckets and spades and head 4.5 miles to the beautiful beach at Compton or 15 miles to family-friendly Ventnor, with its red-tinted shingle, golden sand and vintage beach huts. Pull on your walking boots and venture 7.5 miles for an exhilarating walk on Tennyson Down, with its impressive views of the Needles. Head into Yarmouth, 6 miles away, to explore the cobbled streets, dine out and climb up to the castle battlements. Step inside this enchanting holiday home to find an interior that brings together magical original features with sumptuous, antique furniture and furnishings. Head through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to unpack the fresh produce you have bought and put the kettle on for a cup of tea. Unwind together in this friendly space as you catch up on your day and make plans for tomorrow. Cook on the Aga during the winter months, then gather round the table for your celebratory feasts. Sink back into the sofa in here or head through to the elegant lounge to light the wood burner and choose a book or game. There is also a Smart TV, together with a DVD player and a selection of DVDs. Also downstairs are a useful utility area and a workspace in the hall. The family bathroom, where you can choose between a bath and a shower, is also at this level. Climb the small staircase up to the first floor to enjoy a superb night’s sleep in either of the super-king-size bedrooms, both with good storage, or the twin. Each of these cosy spaces can also be arranged the other way round if discussed in advance. There is also a WC up here. The wonderful garden at this cottage really comes into its own during the warmer months. Dine out here as you admire the established planting. Play games with the little ones on the lawn or take them through the back gate to the village play area. There is a shed for storing your outdoor gear. Parking is on the street, subject to availability.
