KingTucked away in a picturesque and peaceful spot just outside the village of Shorwell, this charming barn conversion makes a wonderful base for a relaxed getaway. The Pigsty at Kingston Barns is set on its own, offering a lovely sense of space and privacy with a choice of seating areas to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening drink.
Inside, the cottage is warm and welcoming, with a comfortable open plan living room with kitchen and dining areas that's perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the surrounding countryside and coast that are just a short drive away. There are two bedrooms, a double and twin which make it well suited to families or couples holidaying together - and with the added bonus of being dog friendly, everyone can come along and enjoy this delightful retreat.
Outside, there's plenty of space to enjoy the fresh air, whether you're dining al fresco, soaking up the island sun, or simply enjoying watching the children play in the communal grounds.
Kingston Barns is made up of four adjoining barns,the three other properties are The Dairy (4536), The Stables (4537) and The Cattle Byre(4535). Each of which can offer separate accommodation or a perfect place to invite the whole family for a special occasion.
The west side of the Island is less populated and has some of the most stunning and dramatic scenery the Island can offer. It is a walker's heaven with many coastal path routes to follow and charming county pubs to stop at along the way - the Tennyson trail, named after the poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, is well worth a go, fourteen miles of stunning scenery that finishes at the Iconic Needles!
There are plenty of beaches to explore, Compton Bay on Military Road is a popular spot for surfers due to the waves that form when the south-westerly wind is blowing on shore. There are dinosaur footprints visible along Compton Bay when the tide is out, and it is one of the best locations to search for fossils, hours of fun for the younger ones.
Colwell Bay, on the western shore, is a mixture of sand and shingle. With calm shallow waters it is more suited for swimming and snorkelling, and deck chairs are available for hire. We would advise you to book a table at The Hut, a beach restaurant with a very good reputation for superb food and a great atmosphere.
