The island has become a real hot spot for cycling enthusiasts with a choice of challenging off-road bridleways, peaceful byways, and level purpose-made tracks running along a former railway line. There is a specialist bike stand in the front of the property, and a secure bike shed in the bike garden. Cycle to the famous Needles landmark or take on the full ’round the island route’, which is 66 miles long and is used for the annual Isle of Wight Randonnee held over the May bank holiday. You can also travel along the route at a more leisurely pace and along the way you will find numerous restaurants, pubs, and cafés, amongst the quaint villages and towns serving tasty local produce.
The property is located less than 3 miles from the Yarmouth ferry and is a perfect base to explore the West Wight. There are plenty of coastal and country walks on your doorstep such as the Tennyson Trail as well as family attractions such as The Needles and Tapnell Farm and exhilarating water-based activities at Freshwater Bay. There are many other attractions for all the family including Queen Victoria’s Osbourne House, Carisbrooke Castle, Black Gang Chine theme park, picturesque villages with thatched cottages, and a model village to name a few. Shanklin Chine, a deep wooded gorge with waterfalls is also worth a visit and leads down to the beach. Beach 1½ miles. Shop ½ mile, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

Between October and March there is a winter fuel charge of £50.
