The property is dog friendly too with a fully enclosed private garden, making it the perfect base to explore all that the western side of the Isle of Wight has to offer with your four-legged friend.
This delightful property is located in the village of Ningwood, where the local pub is a popular and prominent establishment and only a short walk from the property. Whilst staying in the west of the island, you can visit Tennyson Down where you can enjoy panoramic views over the Solent.
