The Steyne - Steyne Three

Bembridge sits at the eastern tip of the Isle of Wight with immediate access to several worthwhile walks and beaches. The Culver Down trail runs inland from the village with views across Sandown Bay; the Bembridge Windmill, the island's only surviving one, is a short stroll away. Three beaches—Bembridge, St Helens and Seaview—all lie within reach, offering everything from rock-pooling to calmer swimming depending on the tide and conditions.

The Steyne - Steyne Three is a two-bedroom cottage sleeping four, with a double bedroom upstairs and a ground-floor bedroom with zip-and-link beds (which can be pushed together to form a super king). There are two bathrooms, one with a bath and shower, one a shower room. Downstairs you have a living and dining room with a smart TV, and a kitchen equipped for proper cooking—electric oven, hob, dishwasher and the rest. A back garden has seating and furniture. Two cars can park on site. Wifi, electricity, bed linen and towels are included; heating is gas central. No smoking is permitted.

The village itself has a fishmonger with fresh daily catch, artisan bakeries, and local shops. Several cafés and gastropubs serve food ranging from island seafood to pub standards. For a wider day out, ferry links to Portsmouth and Gunwharf Quays are straightforward.
