About this property

Castle Cottage - 1 bedroom cottage, sleeps 2 guests

This beautifully presented, one bedroom terraced cottage is one of three terrace cottages and one apartment lovingly converted from what was once the stable block of the former Steephill Castle, an impressive country retreat with connections to Queen Victoria. The enviable location boasts the adjacent Ventnor Park and just a 2 minute walk from miles of stunning, unspoilt coastline walks. With its character features and unique historic charm, this property is sure to impress.

Upon entering the property, you will find a spacious reception room with open plan styling and vaulted ceilings, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The stable door entrance adds a touch of charm to this welcoming space. The open plan design seamlessly connects the reception room to the well appointed kitchen, perfect for entertaining guests. The kitchen boasts ample natural light and even includes a dining space for relaxed meals.

The large double bedroom is a haven of tranquillity, flooded with natural light and featuring a comfortable king size bed. From the bedroom, there are doors leading out to a delightful courtyard garden, offering a private outdoor space to relax and unwind. The en-suite shower room adds convenience and luxury.

In addition to the bedroom and reception room, there is also a sun room with coffee table and comfy chairs looking out onto a walled courtyard, both perfect for breakfast, morning coffee or a spot of lunch. Furthermore, a quiet mezzanine reading galley looking down into the lounge, adds to the versatile areas of this unique cottage for relaxation and leisure.

The property is gated leading to a cobbled courtyard, providing car parking for 1 car and adding an extra layer of security and privacy.

Located adjacent to Ventnor Park, perfect for outdoor activities and peaceful walks. For those who love the coast, this property is just a few minutes walk to coastal walks and stunning beaches, offering picturesque views and the opportunity to explore the coastal beauty of the area.

This terraced property is ideal for couples seeking a home from home with character, charm, and a touch of history. Whether you are looking to relax in the courtyard garden, explore the nearby park, stroll along unspoilt coastline, this property offers the perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience.

With its comfortable, cosy furnishings and enviable location, this character cottage steeped in history with connections to Queen Victoria will not disappoint and is the perfect retreat for couples or those seeking peace and solitude.

The cottage is one of four in the converted stable block and subject to the availability of the other 2 cottages and apartment, can be booked together for friends and family looking to holiday together.

10/10 Excellent

Perfect location

This cottage is beautifully renovated from an old building. It has charm and character! The location is perfect, a quiet courtyard on the edge of Ventnor Park. It has parking which is always a bonus, and outdoor space for warm days. It is warm and comfortable and very welcoming.

Comfortable Stables!

Our first stay in this converted stable on the edge of Ventnor proved an ideal location. Even though a few light bulbs were missing (dealt with promptly) the cafetiere didn't work and the shower was weak, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Castle Cottage. Our local favourites within walking distance were Steephill Cove and the Botanic Gardens.

8/10 Good

Enjoyable stay

Nice quirky cottage with plenty of space for the two of us, including two bathrooms, and courtyard space to the front and back. The bed was comfy and heating and hot water plentiful when needed, also Wi-fi and Sky TV. Convenient location for walking in to Ventnor and also Steephill Cove and the Botanic Gardens, either along the cliff path or the road.
