Positioned above the cliffs looking over the sea. If you are looking for a retreat away from the madness of modern life this is the right place for you. You can of course come alone but it is always more fun with 9 extra people and your dog to enjoy this amazing location! Recently refurbished Coastguard Cottage is awaiting visitors to create wonderful memories together.



As you enter from the lovely, refreshed courtyard the homely feel of Coastguard cottages is immediate. withthe kitchen on your left and the living dining area on the right, there is an open fire. Please make use of the wood in the store. Further through the house and you have access down one small step into the only ground floor bedroom, perfect for those struggling with stairs. There is also a toilet on the ground floor.



Upstairs is the arrangement of 3 well-proportioned bedrooms. The Master with its own en-suite and breath-taking views over the cliffs, then the second bedroom also with an en-suite and the same view. The third bedroom upstairs is the kids’ room with 2 bunk beds and accommodation for 4, looking over the courtyard. There is also a family bathroom on this floor.



The outside spaces have been well equipped with modern but rustic furniture. In the sheltered courtyard there is a huge table ready for a banquet and a built in BBQ, which you are welcome to use, please leave it in a respectable state though.



The back garden is an amazing place to be on a sunny day. Sit back with a glass of wine and enjoy this unique space, the comfy pallet sofas and the sound of crashing waves many feet below you is really magical.

    Great to be able to book for two nights. Great dog friendly. Great relaxed cottage in a wonderful location. It was expensive and with the ferry on top.

    The overall experience created some lovely family memories with an amazing view, great break for all of us that stayed. Please trim the hawthorn bushes in the lane leading up to the property as both our cars were slightly scratched. Also a resurface job in the lane would be great although i appreciate that this will need all resident participation.

    It was a pleasure staying in the coastguard cottage. It was private and secluded. Just what we really wanted for the group that travelled with us. It was absolutely amazing on that side of the island. We will definitely come back and book through your company. It was also a pleasure liaising with Shannon. She was very helpful and had a pleasant personality. See you soon.

    Many thanks for a lovely stay at Coastguards cottage. Many positives! The house was in the perfect position on the cliff path with spectacular views. Also steeped in history. It was clean and tidy and the upstairs was especially bright and clean with comfortable beds and bedding. Good amount of equipment in the kitchen, everything could want for a comfortable stay. Loved the touches like the dog blankets in the lounge, beautiful open fire and great outside seating area with comfy cushions. Wonderful place to stay and we'll be back! Plus I should add you were so accommodating and helpful in organising our stay. I will certainly recommend you!

    Really nice cottage, lots of room, superb views from the rear of the property, over the Channel. 150 yards walk out of the back garden to the cliff edge steps cut into the cliff side (not for the faint hearted) provides access to a practically deserted beach with crystal clear water. For easier access, a short stroll of around half a mile takes you down to the chine and down onto the beach. The front garden (courtyard) has a fabulous bbq area with plenty of seating. The nearest pub (Wight Mouse) serves great food and is about a mile and half from the cottage and most places on the Island are within 30-40 minutes drive from the property. Overall, really nice place to stay and perfect base to discover the island.

    The cottage seems to be recently refurbished provides most of the modern facilities but without luxury. The house is warm and have all the necessary to cook and stay like home. You have even dishwasher, washing machine and convenient drier. The surrounding provides walk paths by the coast. Note that you can not access directly the beach as there is a cliff, you need to walk a mile or so so access the sea shore. We had an issue with a water leak on a Sunday night 31 of December but we received a good response of the emergency number and thing were handled to the best they could at the time. Closest supermarkets are 15/20 minutes by car in Freshwater or more options in Newport. Internet is very slow and not enough to make the TV streaming to function properly. I used my phone 3G/4G hotspot most of the time which was OK for work with my laptop. I will surely recommend to stay in here.
