Description

This charming Grade 2 listed stone cottage boasts comfortable accommodation for up to 4 people and is attractively situated in a delightful rural hamlet. Only 1.5 miles from the picturesque seaside resort of Shanklin with its gentle sloping sandy beaches, it is ideal for the family or a romantic getaway. The cottage is surrounded by a patchwork of open farm and woodland, less than 100 yards from a vast array of footpaths which link to the major walking trails of the island - showcasing some wonderful panoramic views. Within a 5 min drive you can visit the pretty villages of Godshill and old Shanklin which offers an array of quaint tea shops and welcoming pubs. For a larger variety of shops there is the market town of Newport and for a livelier evening you can visit Ryde.

This beautiful single storey cottage dates back to 1695 and has been sympathetically converted from an ancient stone barn. It is one of a pair of charming cottages, which are divided by an impressive central archway that gives access to its rear garden Gate and further cluster of little cottages.

Dairy Maid has been renovated to a high standard and where possible original features have been retained. Access to the cottage is through a large oak door and two steps up and from the main hallway there are two beautiful bedrooms; one with twin beds and the other a king.
Also from the hallway you have access to the bathroom; offering the best of both worlds with bath and a separate shower. Further along the hallway you access the spacious lounge/diner with two small steps up into a bright room featuring the impressive inglenook fireplace with a large log burning stove and two baskets of logs are supplied,
The lounge is furnished with 2 leather sofas and a leather chair; featuring Wi-Fi internet, telephone, Sky Q TV and a DVD player. The dining area overlooks the garden for your casual or formal dining experience.
The separate large kitchen with hardwood worktops, Belfast sink, a duel fuel range-master cooker featuring electric double ovens and gas hob is the ultimate culinary delight to use. A microwave, Coffee machine ,refrigerator, freezer, washer/dryer and dishwasher are also there for you to utilise.
The french doors in the lounge open out to a enclosed, secluded and tranquil garden. Outdoor furniture and a BBQ allow you to enjoy alfresco dining or relax under the tree and just read a book, and the garden gate gives access back under the archway to the two parking spaces and a sunny front garden with
A garden bench to enjoy the afternoon sun.

If you visit the cottage at Christmas or the New year it is fully decorated inside and out to enhance your stay.

On your arrival you will find a seasonal complimentary welcome pack and a treat for your pets too. We are a pet friendly cottage and accept 3 well behaved dogs which must be over 12 months old at £20.00 per dog per week.

Heating and electricity are offered at no extra charge but sadly no car charging is permitted.

Magical Stay

By The Tanners on 21-Dec-2024

Magical Christmas Stay at Dairy Maid Cottage. Can't praise the Owner or cottage more . We arrived to festive twinkling lights & a wreathed door the first impression left us all speechless with magical festive vibes. Once inside we were again blown away with a huge Christmas tree & a fireplace all bedecked ... Lots of gasps , wows & blimey's being uttered ! Linda had literally thought of every treat possible to make our stay perfect & we feasted ourselves all week! Dairy Maid Cottage was a wonderful get away for a family needing to recharge it supplied everything we needed & more & can't thank our host enough for her kind generosity & thoughtfulness at making a truly magical Christmas 🎄

Wonderful cottage magical with Xmas lights

By Ann Helen on 07-Dec-2024

Again an amazing lovely relaxing time here, the cottage is great and the Xmas decorations made it even more special. The welcome pack was truly wonderful and so full of Xmas goodies, you are very generous Linda. This time we lit the log fire which was great. Everything you need is here, very clean, spacious, comfortable and warm. The area is quiet and seeing the robins and red squirrel in the garden was lovely.Thank you again we had a fantastic week and will be back for sure.

Great stay

By Stephen & Marion Kelly on 12-Oct-2024

A beautiful cottage in a very good position, the cottage is well equipped & beautifully furnished. Every thing you could possibly want & more has been thought of, Linda & David completely spoiled us with cakes, crisps, sweets, plus a beautiful choice of savoury items, & biscuits for our dog, who could not be happy with that ! We both agreed it’s the best cottage we have rented for holidays & we do that twice a year all over the UK. The only tiny thing that was annoying more than anything as we go away for the peace & quiet, was the cottage next door Byre cottage had a dog staying there that barked day & night which was very aggravating. I did ask if they could stop it & it was ignored. We don’t allow our dog to behave like that so it is frustrating.

Excellent for visitors with Dogs

By Gary Brigden on 07-Sep-2024

This property is always clean and well maintained. The welcome basket is always a treat for visitors and there pets. Nicely positioned just outside Shanklin in a quiet area with possibly the best all year dog beach on the island a short drive away just the otherside of Sandown. Always my first choice if avaliable. 6 a short drive away
