Afton Thatch Lodge, Freshwater - Isle of Wight, sleeps 4 and has 1 bedroom

Afton Thatch Lodge is small, detached, thatched cottage set in the grounds of Afton Thatch, built in 1697. It is accessed through a shared drive, yet seperated by hedging. It has its own garden, reached through three french windows facing east towards the downs and the sunrise.

'A red squirrel put in an appearance in the tree which you can see from the bedroom on our final morning. We didn't eat out in the evenings as we couldn't imagine that we would get such a super view in a restaurant as we did from the cottage!' Couple, April 2010

The Lodge offers accommodation for a couple and children or guests. The master bedroom on the first floor has views over the downs and estuary plus an ensuite bathroom with deep double ended roll top bath. On the ground floor is the open plan kitchen and living room with two "over and under" occasional day beds which can sleep four more, although the cottage is really best suited to a couple.

'We have just got back and I wanted to let you know that we had a lovely long weekend on the Isle of Wight. We found the cottage delightful, comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed, perfect for walks and cycle rides. We just brought the bikes with us and cycled from the ferry terminal so we found the situation of the cottage ideal. We were close to the village and the Red Lion and were an easy cycle ride from the Co-op for all the provisions.' Couple, May 2010
