  • Located close to the pretty seaside resort of Shanklin with its old village and beach
Property code: IC024

Nestled along a serene country lane near the seaside resort of Shanklin, this enchanting country cottage offers an idyllic retreat for families and their four-legged companions. Settle in for a round with the hound in one of Godshill’s traditional watering holes (3 miles). Back home, furry friends can snuffle out the salty air in the spacious garden before devouring a meaty al fresco dinner, while the humans cook up a delicious family feast on the BBQ.

This Grade II-listed cottage has been artfully renovated, seamlessly merging contemporary aesthetics with traditional charm with exposed beams and an inviting fireplace. Step into the generously equipped kitchen, where culinary adventures await, before gathering around the inviting oak dining table for cherished family moments. As night falls, sink into the plush sofa, accompanied by your faithful pup nestled on their favourite blanket, and savour the crackling warmth of the wood burner — a perfect setting for an evening film. Retreat to the luxurious en-suite double bedroom on the ground floor or ascend the staircase to slip into the soft sheets of the king-size bedroom. Let little ones find comfort in the cosy twin room. Swing open the French doors and enjoy a refreshing al fresco aperitif as you bask in the summer sun on your private patio and garden oasis.

Unleash your pup's energy on the sandy shores of Shanklin Beach (1.5 miles), ensuring every wave is chased and no stick is left unfetched. Stroll along the promenade, stopping to refuel at one of Shanklin's numerous pup-friendly eateries (within 2 miles) before being enchanted by the stunning Shanklin Chine Gardens (2 miles).

Lovely cottage, well equipped and cared for including front and enclosed rear garden.
