About this property
Hawthorn Hideaway, an idyllic retreat that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms
Escape to this charming holiday cottage nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Norton Green, an idyllic retreat for families and friends seeking relaxation, adventure and quality time together on the Isle of Wight. Perfectly positioned on the island's sought-after north-west coast, the property sits just a mile from the golden sands and coastal paths of Brambles Chine at Colwell Bay, with the stunning Totland Bay only 2 miles away. The historic harbour town of Yarmouth lies just 1.5 miles to the north, while the lively village of Freshwater, known for its excellent cafés, pubs and restaurants, is equally close. From coastal walks to family attractions, highlights such as Farringford Historic House and Gardens, Tapnell Farm Park and the iconic Needles are all within easy reach. Step inside and you'll discover a beautifully presented home designed for comfort and connection. The inviting lounge, complete with a wood burner, plush seating and TV, is perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the Island. A stylish dining room flows through to the characterful, fully equipped kitchen, with a utility room and ground-floor WC adding everyday convenience. Upstairs, guests can enjoy the luxury of both an elegant family bathroom and a separate shower room. Three thoughtfully designed bedrooms await: two generous super-king-size rooms, one featuring a dressing table and mirrored wardrobes, alongside a cosy bunk bedroom ideal for younger guests. This property truly stands out with its fantastic entertainment spaces. A dedicated games room offers hours of fun with an arcade machine, electronic darts and table football, while a separate snug with TV and desk provides a peaceful retreat for reading, relaxing or quiet play. Outside, the enclosed garden is a private haven, ideal for long summer days and relaxed evenings. With outdoor furniture, a BBQ, fire pit and garden games, it's the perfect setting for alfresco dining, family fun and making lasting holiday memories.
