Property Description |
Bayview is a quiet haven from the pressures of modern life with fine views over the harbour and blue flag beach, which are only two minutes walk away. The shops in the town are even closer, with freshly caught fish, crab and lobster available daily from the harbour fishery. The apartment is on a private road with a dedicated parking space directly outside. This modern and comfortable apartment has two bedrooms, a double and a twin, and sleeps up to four people. The light and airy living, dining and kitchen area is at the front of the building overlooking the sea and the double bedroom has a view is of the highest point of the island, St Boniface Down immediately behind the town. Bayview has been recently renovated and is the top floor of historic "Millers Rock", a converted Victorian period villa in one of the best know streets in the town, Alexandra Gardens, which stands on the site of the original Ventnor Mill and Pond, dating back at least as far as 1300. Facilities include gas central heating, flat screen TV with satellite and DVD, washer/dryer, microwave and a large power shower. Within ten minutes walk there are numerous pubs, cafes, bars and restaurants. These include the only Michelin starred restaurant on the island, the Hambrough about 100 yards away, and the Royal Hotel which has two AA Rosettes for its food. Spectacular coastal walks can also be enjoyed from here, to Bonchurch, the undercliff and Shanklin in the east and to the lovely Steephill Cove and the renowned Botanical Gardens to the West. Outdoor pursuits include walking, cycling, riding, golf and water sports. |

Ventnor is at the south of the Isle of Wight protected by St. Boniface Down - the highest point on the island. This creates a microclimate which encourages lush vegetation and varied wildlife and some of the UK's sunniest summers and mildest winters. Bayview is situated just above the centre of the Esplanade, the western esplanade has a part sand, part fine shingle blue flag beach, good for sunbathing and swimming with nearby pubs, cafes, amusements and paddling pool. The eastern promenade leads to Bonchurch, the Island's best preserved Victorian village much favoured by prominent Victorian literati. Charles Dickens wrote part of David Copperfield whilst staying at Bonchurch which he described as "The prettiest place I ever saw in my life, at home or abroad".
Shopping includes traditional butchers, two delicatessens, a traditional sweet shop, hardware, toys and a number of collectibles and antique shops, as well as a reasonable size Co-op supermarket. In Victorian times Ventnor became a fashionable holiday and health resort. Sir James Clark, Queen Victoria's doctor, endorsed the health-giving properties of Ventnor's climate."Nothing along the south coast will bear comparison with it" he enthused. The town is currently reinventing itself as a stylish destination with new residential development, luxury hotels, wine bars, a piano bar and a new harbour. It was recently listed as the 7th best coastal town in Britain in Coast magazine and was described by BBC Radio Solent as the new Notting Hill. |
