We loved this cosy, gorgeous house. This is our 5th Rural Retreats booking and was definitely the best presented and had the best hamper! CML, Windsor

The cottage is in classic early 19th century style, detached and double fronted with a delightful kitchen garden and two additional 'secret' gardens, a summerhouse, sun terrace with outside eating patio and barbecue. The cottage has recently been fully refurbished to a high standard with all new fixtures and furniture.
Gurnard village is a very desirable location on the island and home to the island's best pub, the Woodvale, as well as the Watersedge Cafe and a dinghy sailing club. It is only a short walk to the playground, local shop, cash point, newsagent and the Little Gloster restaurant. Cowes is home to many individually styled shops, a fishmonger, butcher, artisan bakery and wine shop. In all, everything you could possibly need for a perfect getaway.
The Isle of Wight is easily accessible from the mainland from various points including Lymington, Southampton and Portsmouth.
The island has everything from beautiful hills and downs to walk or cycle, coastal paths to explore, every type of watersport possible, bike and horse trails, woodland and forests and of course beautiful beaches and bays around its Jurassic Coast.
For the grown-ups, the island boasts award-winning vineyards, a cider barn, a lavender farm, crab shacks plus the famous Garlic Farm and Minghella's ice cream!

Accommodation overview: Penda Cottage details
In association with Trinity House, Rural Retreats are pleased to present St Catherine's Lighthouse in Niton, the Isle of Wight. St Catherine's Lighthouse is situated just outside the hamlet of Niton, approximately 10 minutes' drive from the popular coastal resort of Ventnor, the southern most point of the Isle of Wight. The site comprises a terrace of three self catering, former lighthouse keepers cottages, Landward Cottage, Gurnard and Penda.
There are guided tours of the lighthouse throughout the year (subject to availability). If you would like to view the lighthouse please visit http://www.trinityhouse.co.uk/lighthouses/visitor-centres.html or telephone 01983 730435.
The Lighthouse grounds are enclosed with a wall but young children should be supervised at all times. There is an excellent real ale pub a 10-minute walk up the hill. Each holiday cottage has a private enclosed courtyard and parking area. Beyond the courtyard there is a communal grass area where children can play. Holiday guests can unload in the parking area adjacent to Penda Cottage.
The lighthouse does not have a fog signal.
Access roads to some of the lighthouse sites are narrow with limited passing places and, dependent on the season and site, there is the possibility of overhanging vegetation due to cutting restrictions during bird breeding seasons or other environmental reasons.
Guests should be aware that the lighthouses and equipment need regular and sometimes emergency maintenance. Therefore visits by maintenance staff may occur at any time during the year. However, staff will do their best to ensure guest privacy at all times.
