A charming detached home in a rural setting in Sandford near Godshill, providing spacious and comfortable accommodation. Shanklin and Ventnor are within easy reach for a family day on the beach and Woodside is near several footpaths for those who enjoy the countryside.
The large enclosed garden with lawn, shrubs and trees is a tranquil escape after a busy day. There is a patio area with garden furniture and BBQ. To the front of the property is ample off street parking for 2-3 cars.
The ground floor accommodation comprises double bedroom with travel cot, twin bedroom and family bathroom with shower over bath. The cosy lounge, dining room and conservatory all look over the garden and the well equipped kitchen has French doors leading onto the garden. There is a utility room and also a separate cloakroom WC.
The master suite on the first floor comprises double bedroom with en-suite wetroom shower and WC. Guests will enjoy lovely views from this peaceful retreat.
The popular village of Godshill is very close by and has charming thatched roofed cottages and winding main street with a variety of tea rooms, gift shops offering local craft and produce, model village and public house. Sandford is centrally situated between Newport and Shanklin and also within easy reach of Ventnor, making an ideal base to explore the surrounding Island.
For families the popular resort of Shanklin is a short drive away and provides a variety of shops, supermarket, banks and eating places. To the south of the High Street lies the picturesque thatched Old Village with its pubs, tearooms and gift shops. Near to the Old Village is Shanklin Chine, a natural wooded gorge, and Rylstone Gardens, a relaxing park with crazy golf and tea gardens in a flower filled setting.
The long safe sandy beach is on a lower level. One can walk, use the lift or drive down from town to seafront. Coastal paths make for scenic walking to neighbouring Sandown or to the pretty village of Bonchurch through the winding paths of the landslip, in the other direction.
The Island has many other attractions for families with a variety of beaches, cycleways and footpaths, leisure centres and golf courses. Entertainment and eating places are varied.

We had a lovely stay in this property and wouldn't hesitate in booking again. It is in a lovely quiet location but in easy access of the local village and surrounding areas. The property itself is spacious with a lovely big garden that the children loved playing in. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Overall a pleasant stay in a great location but cottage needs updating in areas such as flooring and the downstairs shower not great. Also we were not told about roadworks blocking entrance for 3 days, only found out on the first morning when workmen knocked on door to ask us if we had been told and telling us to get car out if we needed to use it!

Another perfect stay at Woodside. We appreciated the nice new touches whilst maintaining the excellent character of the property. After a day out or if confined indoors due to weather the value of staying at such a wonderful place is truly realised!
Thank you to Bob and Carol for the use of their home. Also to the excellent service from Island Holidays. Happy to be returning next time.
