About this property

1 Apse Castle Cottage, The Isle of Wight.

The story-book exterior of this semi detached cottage is enchanting and once inside the interior does not disappoint either.....




Having been renovated to a high standard. The exposed wooden floors, inglenook fireplace housing a log burner, along with characterful features such as original beams, make this an ideal place for rest and relaxation. Light the fire, kick off your shoes and curl up on the sofa and you may just feel like you’ve gone back in time, if it wasn’t for the modern twists! The front door opens directly into a welcoming, country style kitchen – which is well equipped with everything you will need to prepare those delicious, home-cooked evening meals. There is a dining table adjacent to the cooking area, making it quick and easy to transfer food to hungry guests. The family bathroom is also on the ground floor, with a freestanding, roll top bath perfectly placed to help rejuvenate you after a day exploring the island.

The stairs lead off the lounge and up to three tastefully decorated bedrooms consisting of one double, one twin and one single, which all have access to the upstairs shower room. The off-white walls are a calming backdrop for the stylish but understated soft furnishings.
Outside the courtyard garden is the ultimate suntrap, where you can enjoy a morning cuppa or dinner on a balmy summer evening. The two off road parking spaces are located just in front of the courtyard, making it convenient to unload luggage directly into the cottage.

LOCATION:

Within easy reach of the cottage are an abundance of footpaths, for walks through woodland and the surrounding countryside. Alternatively, hop on a bike and peddle along the 32 miles that make up the Red Squirrel cycle path, part of which follows the old steam railway line. A short drive takes you to the attractive seafront at Shanklin, which is often bustling with people gathering at one of the many restaurants or choosing a favoured spot for swimming and sunbathing along the extensive sandy beach. There's a variety of amusements to entertain all ages, including crazy golf, arcades and ice cream stalls. If you like exploring, then Shanklin Chine is a must, with its natural beauty surrounded by waterfalls, streams and rare plants. The entrance is situated within Shanklin Old Village amongst popular local restaurants, pubs and thatched cottages..

Lovely cottage
The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed (but a tea pot would be a welcome addition). It was a perfect spot for exploring the island. We travelled with our dog and the outside space was well fenced to keep her safe. Unfortunately the lane seemed to be a cut through for busy traffic travelling at speed which meant walking her straight from the doorstep was often quite unsafe. Fortunately the cottage is not far from other spots to park up and dog walk. We had a super stay - helped by the incredibly hot September weather! Wouldn’t hesitate to book through the Island Holiday company again.

Lovely peaceful stay
We had a lovely week staying at the cute cottage just outside Shanklin. It was nicely furnished and comfortable for us as a couple and a small dog. The cottage had everything we needed for the week and provided a great base for us to explore the island. It is in a lovely quiet location, and a short drive into the town (we didn't try walking due to lack of pavements on the roads). The week we stayed was very warm so the upstairs got a little hot but the fan provided gave us some air.
