It has everything you need to enjoy your stay, smart TV, fast wifi, and space to store paddleboards. Dog friendly pub 15min walk away. The space Hill Head is particularly famed for windsurfing, kite surfing and paddle boarding, so this flat is perfectly situated to walk across the road and down the slipway to the beach . The nearby nature reserve attracts many birds such as Oyster Catchers, Little Egrets, Marsh Harrier the list is endless. The most wonderful and somewhat unique sight is to see the swans glide past the shore with paddle boarders behind them, often with a dog on their paddle boards as the sea is most often calm and smooth given the protection of the Isle of Wight to the Solent. Refurbished in June and July 2021 and only listed on Airbnb in Early August 2021. We focused on ensuring we used local artists for the decor and have a description in our welcome manual to explain the origins of each piece . We wanted to create somewhere stylish to stay with a touch of luxury hence the double wall in shower and focus on comfort rather than seaside cliches . Newly installed kitchen with fitted dishwasher, washer dryer, microwave, oven and hob. One guest commented the kitchen was fitted out more fully than any Airbnb she has stayed in, she stayed over Christmas too! We made sure that if you want to cook there is everything for you from hand blenders to garlic crushers! The shower room has large luxury double size shower including grab rail this helped my elderly mother in law feel safe!. New corner and comfortable John Lewis sofa bed, and new kingsize bed and mattress all with deep mattress toppers so a peaceful and good nights sleep awaits. There is very little traffic early mornings and at night, it may get a bit more busy during the day on a sunny day. At night the only thing you can hear are the Terns or on a foggy night a fog horn so it’s very peaceful. A set of binoculars are await you so you can sit and watch the boats and views across to the Isle of Wight and take a closer look if you would like to.
