About this property

Enjoy a holiday in the centre of seaside Bembridge in our award winning cottage

  • Winter or high Summer, sun, snow, wind or rain, you can have a great break at Drayton Cottage, in lovely Bembridge on the Isle of Wight. Expect fluffy duvets, dog treats and vintage detail.

    Proud to win the Tested by Tots 2021 holiday let award we welcome couples and families to the cottage.

    Let your car gather dust on the cottage drive, big enough for a large 4x4 and relax.

    You can walk to the beaches in less than 10 minutes, you can easily stroll to a pub, cafe or restaurant in less than 5 minutes, or you can stay right at home and enjoy the gorgeous,quiet, sunny garden with comfy outdoor couches, barbie, dining table and chairs . Astro turf and paving.

    If the weather is blustery, enjoy a bracing coastal walk, followed by a relaxing soak in the bath and chill with a glass of wine and a good book in the cosy sitting room. There is a smart tv and wifi to catch up on emails. A wireless speaker for your iTunes and a lamp which charges your phone in case you leave home without a charger.

    In the new kitchen you'll find all you need to cook a great meal, hob, oven, microwave etc. There is a washing machine so you don't have to go home with dirty clothes and the newly fitted bathroom is on the ground floor.

    Upstairs there are the two bedrooms, one double and one twin. There is also a baby travel cot, high chair and stair gate. Linen, except for the cot, and towels are provided at no extra cost. There is a single flight of stairs from the ground to upper floor - they are carpeted and there is a handrail. If you have mobility issues you may find them steep. Please note too that if your mobility is compromised the shower is over the bath.

    Dogs love the walking on the island, so if you would like to bring your family friend with you, just let me know at the time of booking.The local beaches are open to dogs all year.

    The sunny garden is secure and has an artificial lawn so no fears about muddy feet. There is a garden shed big enough to house a couple of bikes. There is also a barbie and dining table with chairs, couches and bench. Shade is provided by a plant covered pergola.

    In Bembridge you can do as much or as little as you like. You can find long interesting walks right from the front door, you can enjoy cycling trails, you can rockpool or find a quiet little sandy cove or you can simply enjoy a coffee and icecream at a nearby cafe.

    Bembridge is big enough to offer local independent shops with a baker, butcher and farm shop as well as a chemist. There is an excellent chippy, Chinese restaurant, and village pubs offering a variety of food, including takeaway.This small town has everything you need with a post office and supermarket, restaurant, cafes and pubs. Small enough to be cute but big enough to supply your shopping needs without having to use the car.

    Voted village of the year 2019 by Countryfile magazine readers.

    If markets are your thing, Bembridge has a weekly WI market and nearby St Helens has a quirky car boot sale on the Green on Summer Sunday mornings. There is also a farmer's market in Newport.

    If you are looking for exercise you could try a beach ride along Bembridge beaches in the Winter and at St Helens in the Summer. If you like yoga Ventnor Botanic Gardens has drop in classes at the centre below their excellent cafe. As well as plant sales, including magnificent agapanthus, they sometimes have art exhibitions and sales too.

    Drayton Cottage facilities - 2 bedrooms ( 1 double and 1 twin), dining room, sitting room, kitchen and bathroom with shower. secure sunny garden with furniture and barbie, shed and pergola.

    Fully double glazed, gas central heating, gas cooker, microwave, washing machine and outside clothes drier, fridge with freezer compartment, toaster, kettle, iron, ironing board, hairdryer, phone charging lamp, wireless speaker, smart tv and wifi.
