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.

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

Lovely Beautiful Cottage

By A & H on 07-Oct-2023

Had a lovely week in this absolutely beautiful cottage, it is in a great quiet location and truly amazing. It is spotlessly clean, very well equipped, spacious, warm and very comfortable. Lovely garden with plenty of seating areas to sit watching the birds and lit up at night makes it even more magical. The welcome pack so full of food, cakes, goodies, wine and more all enjoyed for sure, thank you so much. Weather was hit and miss but thoroughly enjoyed visiting different areas missing the rain even having picnics before returning to the cottage. We would have liked to use the log fire which looks so lovely with the surrounding lights on the fireplace, but it was too warm unfortunately. Dairy Maid Cottage is truly wonderful and is the best we have stayed in and we will be returning for sure, and recommending to family and friends. Linda the owner is lovely and makes sure everything is ok during your stay. Thank you again

Beautiful cottage

Our second stay at this beautiful cottage. Blessed by warm weather which allowed us to explore the local countryside - right on your doorstep! Still left plenty of time to relax in the beautiful garden. Thank you so much for the welcome hamper - much appreciated. This cottage really does have it all! We’ve already booked for a return visit in November
