The charming holiday cottage is in a family-friendly holiday park above Colwell Bay, within walking distance of the beach and the wonderful Isle of Wight coastal path. The south-facing chalet is on the edge of the holiday park and not overlooked. You can relax and enjoy the panoramic views over Colwell Bay to the Needles in peace. The owners use the chalet as their personal holiday cottage, so you can trust that it is fully equipped with all of those little things that make a holiday cottage feel like a proper home.

Having to take a ferry across to the Solent only adds to the excitement of going on holiday! Freshwater is on the northwest coast of the Isle of Wight, only two miles from Yarmouth, where the ferry arrives from Lymington. It's half an hour's drive from East Cowes if you take the ferry from Southampton or 40 minutes from Fishbourne, where the ferry from Portsmouth docks. One of the many fantastic features of this scenic island is that it's only 22 miles at its widest point, so you never have to spend very long in the car to get anywhere. There's so much to see and do - all of it is within easy reach of the cottage, yet it feels relaxed and unhurried, with lots of quiet spots to laze about in the sunshine.
