Pointe South

Pointe South is a three-bedroom detached house sleeping six on the Isle of Wight's south coast near Ventnor. The property comes with essentials covered: electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are all included. What sets it apart is how thoroughly equipped the kitchen is—electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and coffee machine mean you can cook what you want rather than making do. There's also a tumble dryer, which matters on a rainy island break.

The layout spreads across two floors. Ground level has a living and dining room with a smart TV, a conservatory with patio doors onto the garden, a bathroom with shower over the bath, and the kitchen. Upstairs: a kingsize bedroom with access to a balcony, a double bedroom, and a twin room that also opens onto a balcony. A separate shower room with walk-in shower completes the upstairs. The front garden faces south and has a terrace with sitting-out space and furniture. One car can park on site, with additional street parking available.

Access is via 30 steps from the parking area, which means the property works well for families but would be challenging for anyone with mobility difficulties. The house is non-smoking. It sits close to St Maur Hotel in Ventnor, within reach of the seafront and local amenities.
