Lovely Ventnor Escape

This quaint cottage is attractively situated within a ten-minute stroll of the beach of Ventnor or the quiet cove of Steephill on the south coast of the Island. Ventnor Park is at the rear of the cottage and paths lead through these gardens to the Esplanade. These gardens also adjoin the Botanical Garden of Ventnor which is renowned for its rare plants and the mild climate. The Clock House is one of a small group of cottages which have been converted from the original stables of Steephill Castle.

This is a spacious one bedroom cottage which has been furnished and equipped with great care. It is centrally heated and the accommodation is all on the ground floor. There is an exceptionally large double bedroom with an attractive beamed ceiling. A door leads from the bedroom into a Victorian conservatory with a tiled floor, and French doors lead from here into the garden. There is a spacious bathroom with a deep Victorian bath with ball and claw feet, a built in shower, sink and WC, plus a dressing room area with wardrobes.

The cottage has an open plan kitchen and dining area with a stunning bay window, with leaded lights and comfortable seating. The kitchen boasts a large pine dresser and is equipped with a gas cooker, microwave, refrigerator with freezer section and washing machine. There is a welcoming sitting room where visitors can relax on sofas in front of an open fire during colder weather. This room also has a flat screen television.

French doors open onto a south-facing walled garden, complete with garden furniture at the rear of the cottage. There is a private, gated courtyard at the front of the cottages and two cars can be parked beside The Clock House. Shops, restaurants and a public house are within a ten-minute walk. Public transport is a three-minute walk away from the cottage.
