LOCATION

Tucked away at the end of a short private lane off Monks Lane, The Cottage enjoys a peaceful semi-rural and coastal position, yet remains conveniently just over a mile from the village centre and its range of shops and amenities. The surrounding area is rich with footpaths and bridleways, offering wonderful coastal and countryside walks, including routes to the sandy shores of Colwell Bay with The Hut, a renowned coastal restaurant and the scenic coastal path around to Totland Bay.
Within a ten-minute drive lies the charming harbour town of Yarmouth, home to excellent sailing opportunities, welcoming pubs and restaurants, and the ferry link to Lymington, which provides onward rail connections to London Waterloo. This combination of tranquillity and accessibility makes the property perfectly suited as either a full-time residence or a relaxing holiday escape.
