We really enjoy running our holiday home and the best thing is knowing that our guests have enjoyed their stay, so we are always looking for new ways to make your holiday even better.
There is a huge amount to see and do on the Isle of Wight. The amazing thing about the Isle of Wight is that everything is not that far away. You can pretty much get to any attraction within 45 minutes’ drive from the bungalow and there is also a host of things just a few minutes away to entertain you. Some of the main things are; the on site is the beach, children’s play area, mini golf, Pitch & Putt, fitness trail. Within a 20-30 minutes’ walk is Victoria country park, Yarmouth town, The Hut restaurant, The Captains Table, The Waterfront bar & restaurant, Totland pier restaurant and ten minutes’ drive you have The Needles attractions including boat rides around the needles and the National Trust Batteries, Farringford House, (once the home of Lord Tennyson), Alum Bay, Tennyson Down, West wight leisure centre. The Beach Brambles Chine has its own beach which is about 300 metres from the bungalow. Just head towards where Brambles slipway used to be and you will find steps down to the beach. Once at the bottom if you turn left and walk along the beach you will get to Colwell beach where you will find the Hut Bar & Restaurant. Walk further along the sea front and you will find The Waterfront restaurant, which we recommend. Digital Guidebook There is so much more to see and do that we now provide a free digital guidebook for our guests. We will send you an SMS or email link so that you can download it to your phone a few weeks after you have booked your holiday.
