It is less than a 10 minute drive from Ryde where we walked our dog along the beach every evening and enjoyed the friendliness of the locals doing the same. The Steam railway is well worth a visit and again less than ten minutes from the accommodation. The place itself was clean, well maintained and ever so comfortable. It is on the owners smallholding where she keeps ponyâs. These are friendly and come up to the back fence to say hello. We had a lovely stay and will definitely be returning early next year.
