Sea Horse

Inside, the space opens into a wonderfully light-filled sitting room, its vaulted ceiling giving a sense of airiness and height, with daylight pouring in through wide windows. It’s a room to settle into - the log burner lit on cooler evenings, the sky shifting outside as the day draws on.

Sleeping eight, Seahorse suits families or friends sharing time together, with three flexible bedrooms that can be arranged as superkings or twins, alongside a generous living space that easily brings everyone together. A sofa bed is available on request for a little extra flexibility. Oak floors and underfloor heating run throughout, bringing a comfortable, understated feel that never tries too hard.

Outside, the cottage sits within easy reach of everything that makes this corner of the island special. A small terrace offers a place to sit out - morning coffee, something simple from the grill - while just beyond, the Sea Garden and its open lawns stretch towards the water.

The indoor pool is only a few steps from the door, with the Ruin Beach Café, boat hire and tennis courts just beyond - close enough to wander to, easy to drift back from.

And then there’s the wider island: coastal paths from the doorstep, empty beaches, and that constant sense of sea and sky. But at Seahorse, it’s the light in the sitting room, and the quiet ease of being here, that stays with you.
