Excellent property

The photos on the VRBO website don’t do it justice! It is much bigger than expected, but with absolutely everything you need. It was perfectly situated off the High Street, very clean and tidy and very nice bed linen! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely return. Highly recommended!!

Beautiful house

The photos do not do the house justice. Bentinck is a beautiful house and everything is provided for. It’s in a great location with a car park close by for parking. The house is in walking distance to shops and beach. Good communication with the owner too.

Long weekend for fell-running

Excellent in every regard - spotlessly clean, wonderfully equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds, and lots of space. Great location for running and for swimming in the sea to cool off afterwards!

Why they chose this property

We purchased Bentinck in 2016 after falling in love with all of its original features which reminded us of when we bought our Victorian house in London almost 40 years ago. We have thoroughly enjoyed completely renovating the house – it has been our retirement project over the past year! We really hope you enjoy your stay at our house in Ventnor, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any feedback or suggestions as to how we can improve the house.
