About this property

Seaglass, beautiful villa with spectacular sea views over Wheelers Bay, Ventnor

A newly refurbished and remodelled chalet situated in a tranquil setting with no passing footfall or traffic, Seaglass is perfectly positioned to explore Ventnor, a quirky Victorian seaside town set in fantastic scenery.
There is a decked garden and brick bbq overlooking the sea in Wheelers Bay. You are a short walk away from the seafront and also the town. There is a free private car park 100 yards from the chalet.
With central heating and underfloor heating in the bathroom, the accommodation is cosy and beautifully decorated in a coastal style.
Seaglass is a detached timber chalet with all modern amenities. With an open plan feel, there are sea views from the kitchen, diner, living room and master bedroom.
A well equipped kitchen comes with a washing machine, microwave, fridge, gas hob and electric oven. There is gas central heating and a combi boiler for instant hot water.
The chalet is in an extremely quiet location, open your windows and all you can hear is the sea and birdsong. Please note there are steps down from the road before reaching our villa which would make it unsuitable for anyone with mobility difficulties.
Ventnor is a fantastic, quirky Victorian seaside town.
It is easy to reach by car or public transport. The beach is beautiful with excellent water quality for swimming. Voted in the top 10 UK seaside destinations 2018 by Countryfile and the Guardian. There are many pubs, bars, restaurants and cafes open all year to suit all budgets. The scenery is spectacular, great for walking and as a base to explore the island. Steephill cove is around a 30 minute walk from Seaglass along the coastal path, and is well worth a visit - very secluded and unspoilt. The Isle of Wight itself has many historical attractions including Osborne House, the home of Queen Victoria where she lived out the rest of her life after Prince Albert died. Carisbrooke Castle, where Charles I was imprisoned before his execution is a bus ride away near Newport. He also lived in Ventnor for some of his incarceration on the island. Ventnor is also home to St Boniface Downs, the highest point on the island with spectacular views, grazing cattle and goats.
We have only independently owned cafes, shops and restaurants which gives the town a very unique feel. Ventnor has a strong sense of community and always offers a warm welcome to visitors.
There is a great bus service all over the island. Driving is easy as the roads are good. One of the best places in Europe for cycling on or off road. The walking is amazing as most of the island is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.
There are a number of different ways to get to the island. For foot passengers there is the hovercraft, fastcat and redjet. By car take either the Wightlink or Red Funnel car ferry. We can provide 15% discount codes for both companies.
Ventnor is a beautiful area with a Mediterranean feel. Favoured by the Victorians due to its very mild climate and clean air, it was a very popular winter holiday destination and retains most of its Victorian charm and architecture.
Both Charles Dickens and Karl Marx lived here for a while.

Seaglass is fab!

Seaglass is lovely. It is very tastefully decorated, and well equipped. The location is perfect. It is very peaceful, but within minutes of both local shops, eateries, et cetera and the seafront.

Excellent stay

We had a fantastic stay at seaglass, we even arrived so early at the island and started to get a grouchy 2 year old. Jacqui and Colin, bent over backwards to try and get the place ready for us earlier. It had everything we needed, and would definitely stay again. Beautiful place with lovely views.

Lovely appartment with great sea view

We enjoyed our stay here very much! The appartment is situated in a sheltered corner at the end of a row, which gives it a private and secluded feel. The seated terrace is perfect for sitting outside and watching the sea. The view of the bay is amazing! Binoculars are provided for spotting sea life, and if you're very lucky (we were, right at the end!) you can see dolphins playing in the water. The appartment was well equipped and comfortable. Jacqui and Colin were very welcoming and helpful, and were able to quicky solve the small problems we had. Ventnor beach is only a 5 - 10 min walk away, and is a nice spot for bathing. You can also get great food nearby at the Spyglass Inn. We would definitely recommend this as a place to stay if you enjoy peace and quiet :-)

The "WOW" factor.

From the moment we arrived we both knew "Seaglass" was something special. From the deck looking over the sea we turned and opened the patio doors to find the our hosts Jacqui & Colin had gone that extra mile, the attention to every little detail within the refurbishment of the property was second to none. The detail had not stopped inside, out on the deck over looking the passing ships everything had been thoughtfully done even down the the lights coming on in the evening. Watching and listening to the birds from the bed first thing on a morning with the sun rising over the sea will be an unforgettable memory. We have stayed in many places around the world but "Seaglass"will live on long in the memory for both of us. Thank you Jacqui & Colin for the memories. Ian & Laura

What a Surprise!

Not sure what we were expecting but we were blown away by this little surprise package. Tucked away in a very private position with amazing views of the sea this cottage had it all and then some. Sparkling clean, cosy, fresh and incredibly fitted out with a myriad of thoughtful and useful extras. Binoculars, games, maps, kitchen essentials, thermos, chiller bag and blocks, heaps of crockery, kitchen scales, first aid kit, heated bathroom floor, USB points, and more! Communication was great and location amazing. Parking was easy and plentiful. We enjoyed drinks down the road at The Volunteer. Cannot recommend it enough. And thank you for the sunshine and passing parade of boats! J & G. Newcastle. NSW. Australia.

Einfach perfekt

Das Ferienhaus ist einfach perfekt - sowohl was Lage und Ausblick angeht als auch von der blitzsauberen und wunderschönen Einrichtung her. Das Häuschen ist ein Raumwunder und wurde von den Besitzern liebevoll renoviert und befindet sich in bestem Zustand. An alles wurde gedacht, sogar ein Fernglas zum Beobachten der Schiffe auf dem Meer ist vorhanden. Vom Wohnzimmer und vom Schlafzimmer aus hat man einen absolut unglaublichen Meerblick, außerdem gibt es eine Terrasse, von der aus man ebenfalls einen unverstellten Meerblick hat. Das Objekt liegt in einer Anlage von ähnlichen Häusern, von denen dieses sicher eines der schönsten und am besten gelegen ist (am Hügel zurückversetzt am Ende einer Reihe, so daß man absolut ruhig und für sich ist). Zum Strand sind es 5 Minuten bergab, zum nächsten Ort Ventnor ebenfalls. Von hier aus kann man die ganze Insel erkunden, zur Fähre nach Yarmouth sind es ca. 45 Minuten mit dem Auto, nach Fishbourne ca. 35 Minuten. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und Jacqui und Colin haben uns besucht, um zu sehen, ob alles passt. Einfach perfekt!

Seaglass

Had a wonderful stay at Seaglass. The chalet was beautifully decorated, warm and welcoming. Jacqui and Colin were excellent hosts and came and introduced themselves after we'd settled in. We really appreciated the welcome pack. The location was ideal being a short walk away from Ventnor which offers plenty of places to eat and drink. Would definitely stay here again and recommend Seaglass to anyone looking for accommodation in the area.

Simply stunning

The chalet is equipped with everything you need in a gorgeous style, ( including games, dvds, colouring) with a luxurious feel To everything. The chalet was exceptionally clean throughout. The view is stunning even if the weather isn’t! We had fun finding the boats with the binoculars and looking for wildlife. The hosts were lovely and attentive by checking in on us. Fabulous place to stay for all ages. Great place to stay to explore the lovely island. Would highly recommend it. Thank you Seaglass.

Seaglass is a perfect place to stay

Jacqui and Colin are Super Hosts! The contact is perfect, the hospitality astonishing and the so called "Cabin" is o of the best places to stay. Great view to the see from the terrace, absolutely quiet and calm place. The Bin itself is super clean and made with lovely details. The kitchen is perfect to cook in an the bathroom is clean and everything and more you need is available. J + C provide necessary goods in the kitchenen like oil, vinegar, tea and coffee. Overall one of the best holiday weeks we ever had. Thanks - Seaglass is a highly recommended place to stay for a romantic couple holiday or a beach hilly with two kids! We will be back...

Spot On!

Seaglass is a lovely cabin, extremely clean and in a great position. Very quiet as it is at the end of 3 cabins and no foot fall. It has a lovely view of the sea from the lounge and decking. Jacqui and Colin have thought of everything, and more, you might need for your stay here. The only reason I gave a 4 star on location is just the slope down to the sea front may be a bit much for the elderly or infirm. The cabin is extremely well presented and the little things like the welcoming board and ‘gifts’ are a lovely touch. Also if you get a wet day there are loads of games, books, dvds to keep you occupied. I would not hesitate to return. Thankyou Jacqui and Colin.
