St Lawrence, Isle of Wight

Situated in a quiet sought after coastal location, a semi-detached three-bedroom cottage with ample parking and sea glimpses

Elm Cottage - Believed to be historically converted from a Victorian stable block that served the adjacent period house, Elm Cottage provides light and well-proportioned accommodation and benefits from ample parking and an easily maintained garden. With excellent access to some superb coastal walks, the cottage benefits from a particularly picturesque and quiet position on the Undercliff.

Positioned between the cliff and the sea, the Undercliff is well known for its micro-climate providing an array of plants ordinarily found in Mediterranean countries. Situated within this sought-after coastal village, Elm Cottage has access to wonderful country and coastal walks, including nearby Woody Bay and Steephill Cove. Nearby, is the popular town of Ventnor which offers a wider selection of popular independent restaurants, bars and shops, as well as fish market and renowned Botanic Gardens.
