Positioned in a stunning coastal location, the property enjoys uninterrupted views of National Trust countryside and coastline, as well as of Compton Bay (great for surfing) and Freshwater Bay.
Full of character and charm, this semi-detached period property will make you feel at home as soon as you step inside. The sitting/dining-room is warm, relaxed and welcoming; comfortably adorned with cosy furnishings and a beautiful farmhouse table. Here you can tuck into a family meal around the table or sink into a sofa and enjoy some restful reading.

Next to the main bedroom is a smaller twin room containing a miniature desk, perfect for taking a moment out of your day to sit down and write a postcard. The third bedroom, also containing twin beds is set to the front of the property. Overlooking the countryside and with sea views in the distance, this is a magical room for the younger ones to wake up in.

A short distance from the house is a footpath leading down to Compton Bay, which allows your furry friends on part of the beach.
