Our featured Isle of Wight cottages include this thatched cottage which is full of character. It shelters under the great heights of Brighstone Down, a delightful place. Brighstone is one of the prettiest villages on the island. Once notorious as the home of smugglers and wreckers it lies on the sunny side of the chalk downs that march east-west across the centre of the island.

Perfect for a romantic break, this 200 year old thatched barn was once used as a National Trust office and has now been converted into a gorgeous holiday retreat, featuring Travertine marble floors, underfloor heating and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. Set just ½ mile from a sandy beach, it sits in the medieval village of Brighstone (pronounced locally as Brixton, hence the Barn's name), a ¼ mile stroll from the welcoming local pub and village stores. Totally unspoilt and threaded with lovely walks and cycle paths, the surrounding countryside is a joy to explore, there are miles of sandy beaches close by and a great range of attractions within a short drive. Newport is 7 miles and sailing at Yarmouth is 10 miles.
Comfortable sitting/dining room. Spacious well-equipped kitchen with Range cooker. Open tread stairs to first floor: Double bedroom with 5’ bed and en-suite bathroom/WC with air bath and separate shower cubicle.
