All on the Ground Floor: Open plan living space. Living area: 28" Smart TV Dining area: French Doors To Garden Kitchen area: Electric Hob, Combi Microwave/Oven/Grill, Fridge Bedroom: Double (4ft 6in) Bed Shower Room: Walk-In Shower, Toilet. Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Welcome pack and doggy extras. Laundry service available on request. Enclosed lawned garden with patio, sitting-out area, garden furniture and barbecue available on request. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. Please note: There are 2 small steps to the garden.. Located in the village of Lake, between the popular resort beaches of Sandown and Shanklin, the property is set adjacent to the owner’s home. The chalet benefits from a fully enclosed south-facing rear garden and has a rear gate that provides access directly out onto the cliff top coastal path, presenting you with a stunning view over Sandown Bay and its pier. The beach at Lake can be accessed from a set of steps from the top of the cliff path, alternatively you can gain access from Shanklin or Sandown Esplanades via a short walk in either direction along the sea wall. Because this beach is tucked away and not as straightforward to reach, it is very often quieter than its resort neighbours Sandown and Shanklin during the busier months, making it a peaceful alternative for a day on the beach. As the waters are quieter, this is a great beach for surfing and water sports, as the sea is shallow and clear. There is an instructional school which is located nearby that offers a whole range of activities for all ages and abilities, there’s also a café and barbecue area which is always popular during the summer season. There’s also beach huts which you can look to hire and a number of benches to sit on along the sea wall path when the tide is further in. The walk along the sea wall between Sandown and Shanklin along the back of the beach is highly recommended as it offers a wide, flat path which is ideal for both walkers and cyclists. For guests choosing to visit the island without their car, a favourable way to reach the property is to take the Wightlink Fast Cat service to Ryde Pier head and then the train to Lake Station which is only a 3-minute walk from the property. The island has become a real hot spot for cycling enthusiasts, with a choice of challenging off-road bridleways, peaceful byways and level purpose-made tracks running along former railway lines. You can cycle across the width of the island to the famous Needles landmark, or try the full round the island route, which is 66 miles long and is used for the annual Isle of Wight Randonnee held over the bank holiday in May. You can also travel along the route at a more leisurely pace, stopping off along the way at one of the many restaurants, pubs and cafés that can be found in the quaint villages and towns. Sandown is a truly traditional British beach resort with pier, amusements, pitch ’n’ putt, Isle of Wight Zoo, children’s play area and the Dinosaur Isle attraction at the northern end of the esplanade towards Yaverland and Culver Cliff. The town is brimming with attractions to entertain visitors, most of them right on the beach front itself, so you never have to stray too far from the golden sands. At the other end of the path you will reach Shanklin Esplanade which is again packed full of amusements and crazy golf, as well as several places to eat. Away from the beach the main town hosts a multitude of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants to enjoy. The old village is world famous with its pretty thatched cottages, cosy tea rooms, pubs, restaurants and craft shops to discover. Outdoor pursuits on the island are well catered for and include horse riding, fishing, paragliding, golf and water sports. There are numerous attractions across the island to discover for all ages, such as The Needles (with its chairlift, amusement park, boat rides, lighthouse and coloured sands of Alum Bay), Blackgang Chine, Dinosaur Isle, the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, Ventnor Botanical Gardens, Tapnell Farm Park and Carisbrooke Castle - or why not pay a visit to Queen Victoria’s favourite holiday residence, Osborne House and its gardens? The sailing towns of Yarmouth and Cowes also make for a great day out. Beach 500 yards. Shops, pub and restaurant ¼ mile. Free WiFi Laundry service (wash) can be arranged with the owner on request. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony/patio - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Single level property - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is no carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules The guest will be charged 50% amount for a cancellation after the reservation is made. ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Note from host: This property accepts a maximum of 2 pet(s) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ### Payment types at the property ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Third time we’ve stayed here with our three dogs, it’s small but cosy, well equipped. Modern amenities. Lovely enclosed garden with gate that leads straight out onto a lovely park with beautiful sea views. The owners are lovely and not at all intrusive and nothing is too much much trouble. We stayed for Christmas and they put decorations up in the chalet. Booked to go again in March. Can’t wait. Highly recommend. ##### Anne This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Alan 16 Oct 2019 #### The property is small and can best be described as a chalet rather than a cottage. The property is small and can best be described as a chalet rather than a cottage. But this is quite obvious from details available when booking. In no way did the size of the property negatively impact our stay. For us the location was ideal as we like walking with our dog, eating out at lunch and chilling in the evening with a bottle or two. A park is right next door which was ideal for us as our dog likes to stretch her legs before she performs her calls of nature. About 5 or 6 miles of pristine sandy beach is within a few minutes walk (as long as you don't mind the cliff stairs). Nothing on the Isle of Wight is far away so you don't have to spend too long in a car (although during our stay there seemed to be traffic-controlled roadworks round every bend). ##### Alan This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 28 Sept 2019 #### This is a lovely cottage although it is quite small. This is a lovely cottage although it is quite small. We had very inclement weather and when we turned on the radiators they did not come on. Also the trains did wake us up from early in the morning but that was no fault of the cottage, unless you sleep very soundly it can be a problem.

Owners couldn't have been better. On hand if needed but not intrusive. Lovely garden, accommodation quite small but as expected from information given. Lots to do nearby and the peace and quiet and fresh sea air we felt in the garden was a delight. Our dog loved the garden as it was completely secure. Would definitely recommend it and would love to go back. ##### Sara This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 5 Jul 2019 #### V Very pleased with the holiday, our hosts were very helpfull and friendly ##### Michael This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Janet 15 Jun 2019 #### Very nice host, friendly and very welcoming.
