The Cottage

Four bedrooms dotted throughout the property provide plenty of space for large groups. Downstairs, the kitchen-diner is well-equipped for rustling up holiday suppers, or barbecue on the terrace outside with a marine backdrop.

The lounge is set on a mezzanine allowing it to benefit from the evocative sea views on offer. On colder nights, fire up the log burner and watch the stars appear through the patio doors.

The Location

Swimmers will be spoilt for choice with both an outdoor pool and the island’s indoor spa pool on the doorstep, or, take advantage of the beachfront location and wild swim from Farm Beach below.

Dine at the Flying Boat nearby, serving exceptional coffee and light lunches, or explore further and find the island’s pub, the New Inn, along the harbourfront at New Grimsby.

Our Favourite Thing

The winding coastal walk from the cottage along to Appletree Bay - see if you can find a cowrie shell.
