The Salt Pot - a cottage that sleep 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP

This lovely three bedroom cottage is in a quiet location and enjoys sea views from the lounge, front bedroom and balcony. It is a two minute walk down steps to the sea wall at Wheelers Bay. A decked roof terrace provides superb views across Wheelers Bay and over the Downs behind Ventnor, and is an ideal place to relax. For colder months there is a wood burning stove in the living room. Parking: There is FREE parking in Wheeler's Bay car park below the start of St Catherine Street (conditions apply and subject to availability), via Wheeler's Bay Road. There is also pedestrian access via some steps leading directly from the car park into St Catherine's Street.

This Victorian seaside town offers buildings full of character and is one of the sunniest spots on the Island. There's lovely sand/shingle beach and an esplanade which is all within a short stroll from the cottage. In addition to the main shopping street where you will find a selection of small supermarkets to include a Co-op and Tesco Express, there are parks and gardens, museums and the Winter Gardens - an entertainment venue with a growing reputation for its theatre and concerts. The renowned Ventnor Haven Fishery at the marina sells the daily catch of fresh fish and seafood; boat trips are also available from here.

There are a number of great restaurants in Ventnor or if you fancy a take-away to enjoy by the beach, the Ventnor Haven Fishery on the Esplanade sell fantastic fish and chips, locally caught and prepared to order.

Ventnor Botanic Garden lies in the remarkable microclimate at the heart of the famous Undercliff. This unique garden is protected from the cold northerly winds by chalk downs. In addition to enjoying the lovely gardens, it also hosts events and exhibitions and there is a restaurant and Cafe on-site for refreshments; lunch or coffee and cake.

From the esplanade you can take the level walk, along the sea wall to Bonchurch, or walk along the cliff path towards Steephill Cove, a beautiful sheltered bay only accessed by foot.

You will not be disappointed with your stay at this charming cottage it's the perfect location to have a truly unforgettable holiday experience.

Lovely property, great location

My family and I had a lovely stay in the Salt Pot, it was very comfortable and well located for local amenities, all the Isle of Wight attractions (although nothing is ever far away on the island) and the sea front. The accommodation was comfortable and reasonably well kept. A little more attention to detail with the cleaning was needed to get rid of the resident spiders in the kitchen cupboard and around the living room but although it would bother some clean freaks it wasn't much of an issue for us.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Beware the camera lies

The house was grubby and did not comply with the standard we expected especially during the pandemic Sadly the photos did not accurately depict the reality of staying in this property which was damp unclean and shabby. We would never stay again
