Villa 23

Villa 23 stands within a holiday development overlooking Wootton Creek, with direct access to the water's edge and Woodside beach a short walk away. The cottage holds two bedrooms—a double with ensuite shower upstairs, and two singles downstairs—plus a family bathroom, so it works well for a small group or extended stay. Downstairs, an open-plan kitchen and living area opens onto decking with garden furniture; a barbecue is at hand for outdoor cooking. One car park space is yours alone.

The kitchen has what you need to prepare proper meals: electric oven, hob and microwave. Bed linen, towels, heating and Wi-Fi are all included. One well-behaved dog can come with you. A network of footpaths and cycle routes threads through the surrounding countryside—Firestone Copse woodland is a short drive off. Wootton Bridge, less than a mile away, has shops, launderette and several pubs. Public transport runs from the creek to Ryde and Newport; the Isle of Wight Steam Railway is also nearby. The property is non-smoking.
