Lanthorn Cottage

About this property

The perfect hideaway for friends and families seeking a peaceful retreat in a lovely part of the Isle of Wight. This relaxing cottage lies at the heart of the tranquil village of St Helens which boasts a beautiful village green and friendly pub. It is also well placed for exploring St Helens Duver, a delightful National Trust-owned stretch of land with sandy dunes, rock pools, limestone ledges and rich wildlife (1 mile). Nettlestone is immediately to the north (1.5 miles), with the beautiful Priory Beach leading up to the historic resort of Seaview (2 miles). To the southeast, Bembridge (2 miles) has three pretty beaches, a windmill and a wealth of great places to eat and drink. Ryde, the largest town on the island (4 miles), has an array of fantastic restaurants, pubs, museums and shops alongside the beautiful Appley Beach and Ryde Beach.

Entering this welcoming property, you will find the spacious and fully equipped country-style kitchen/diner, with plenty of storage space, wooden worktops and a central breakfast bar. Exploring the ground floor of this inviting cottage further, the bright, fresh and airy lounge/diner has a sociable main dining area perfect for family meals, alongside a cheery lounge area with exposed brickwork, ample seating and a Smart TV, ideal for unwinding in after a great day out. The ground floor also features a refreshing shower room. When it’s time to turn in for the night, head upstairs to the three light and relaxing first-floor bedrooms. You’ll find a tastefully decorated double, a cosy bunk bedroom and finally, a pretty double with a low-sloping ceiling. One of the doubles can be made into a twin on request. Please note the property has some restricted height.

Heading outside, the large private garden is enclosed and features plenty of outdoor furniture – making it the perfect spot for a BBQ on a sunny afternoon. Off-street parking is available for one car, with further on-street parking by the village green.
