This detached property is situated just a short distance above the picturesque Steephill Cove, which lies just south west of the Victorian seaside town of Ventnor. Steephill is a traditional, unspoilt fishing cove with a sand and shingle beach, nestled between rocky cliffs and smugglers’ coves. The bay has no road access, which makes it a unique hidden gem. Find your way down the pathways and you can dine on the freshest crab and lobster, or simply sit back and relax on a deckchair on the beach. The seaside town of Ventnor is just over a mile away from Steephill Lodge, and here you will find a number of lovely tea shops, pubs and restaurants dotted along the Esplanade, including the well-known Spyglass Inn. There are also some quirky and bespoke shops, an award-winning park and a paddling pool. The town, which for the most part is built on the steep hill leading to the beach, retains its original seaside charm and makes for a great day out for all ages.

Sea and cliff walks can be found along the coastal paths, along with many outdoor pursuits including horse riding, fishing, cycling, paragliding, water sports and golf. There are numerous attractions for all ages including The Needles with its chairlift, amusement park, boat rides, lighthouse and coloured sands of Alum Bay. You can pay a visit to Queen Victoria’s favourite holiday residence Osborne House, Blackgang Chine, the UK’s oldest amusement park, Ventnor Botanical Gardens, Tapnell Farm Park, Carisbrooke Castle or the sailing towns of Yarmouth and Cowes. Whatever you decide, one things for sure, the Isle of Wight has plenty to offer. Beach ¼ mile. Shop, pub and restaurant ¼ mile.

    Great stay in this elegant bungalow in the botanical gardens car park. Probably the best place we’ve stayed at on the Iow. Short but steep walk to the Beach Shack for lunch. Proximity to the botanic gardens makes it very tranquil but not isolated since the cricket club building is in full use.

    Me and my 8 year old had a fantastic time in ventnor this is the second time we have stayed at the lodge and will definitely be staying again next year

    Steephill Lodge was exactly as described in the listing and the perfect location for our visit to the Isle of Wight for a wedding at Ventnor Botanic Gardens. It was also lovely to access Steephill Cove with <10 minutes’ walk. The lodge was pristine and the new dehumidifying system meant we did not sense any of the damp that had been mentioned in earlier reviews.
