The Officers Mess

The Officers Mess is in Freshwater on the Isle of Wight. It's a huge house that used to be part of an old Victorian fort. It sleeps ten people.

It's got a main living and dining area that's really big. It's all one space, with archways into the kitchen. There's also a separate snug room off to the side. The ceilings are all brick arches.

Upstairs there are five bedrooms and four bathrooms. The main bedroom is very large and has a four-poster bed. Two other bedrooms have their own bathrooms, and two share a family bathroom.

Outside, there's a communal roof garden on top of the fort. You get good views from there. You can park right outside the front door. The whole site has electric gates.

The fort is surrounded by Golden Hill Country Park. There are footpaths through the woods that go down to Freshwater village and the beach.

For attractions, you're close to Yarmouth ferry terminal. Freshwater Bay and Colwell Bay are nearby. The Needles and Alum Bay are about a ten minute drive. Tapnell Farm Park is good if you have kids.

It's listed as a luxury property and has a 5 Star rating. That means it's very well equipped. There's a dishwasher, washing machine, WiFi, and all bedding is provided. They have a cot and highchair available. Sorry, no pets.

If you're planning trips, the National Trust Isle of Wight page is useful, as is the Visit Isle of Wight site.
