Freemantle Lodge

About this property

Freemantle Lodge is tucked away into a secluded location of a working farm, wrapped in beautiful views of the countryside. On the grounds of a 300-acre estate, amongst The English Heritage site of Appuldurcombe House with its Capability Brown Gardens, this is a place worth visiting. Well-suited for families or friends, this cottage has been beautifully designed with an abundance of charming features including a monumental archway and a water well situated outside. The ground floor is filled with charm, commencing from the dining room with its pew seating, feature windows, and rayburn cooker which sits amidst a brick surround. The kitchen brings a modern feel to the property, and the lounge is a homely place to settle down, with leather sofas, a light airy ambience and a front-facing outlook.

The first floor bedrooms continue the essence of tradition and charm, each equally as stylish, with a neutral colour scheme to welcome you home after a busy outing. The master suite is tied together by a dressing table and wardrobe, while the twin room looks out onto the beautiful hillside, over the working farm and sheep which roam around. With natural beauty right on the doorstep, you will want to make the most of the enclosed garden, your own little place to sit and take in the idyllic scenery. There is even a public footpath should you wish to stroll into the village for a taste of the local amenities.

In the village there is a pub, The Star Inn, here you can also find a Donkey Sanctuary to experience something different. The seaside resort of Ventnor is just a short drive away and offers everything that you could ask for including heart-warming botanical gardens and a sandy beach for a sunny adventure. Why not pay a visit to the Isle of Wight AONB and the Hamstead Heritage Coast. A unique cottage in an excellent Isle of Wight location.
