Tucked away in the Victorian seaside resort of Ventnor, Isle of Wight, is this stunning, first-floor apartment, set in a converted church, Pilgrim’s Loft.
Enjoying a superb location within the Isle of Wight AONB and a stylish interior boasting luxury furnishings, Pilgrim’s Loft is the perfect base for a group or family of six looking to escape to the Isle of Wight in style.
Via external rustic stone steps and then to the first floor, be welcomed into the contemporary, open-plan living space, featuring original church windows and high beamed ceilings.
Here you can look forward to cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen, with a handy washing machine and dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for six.
After dinner, why not snuggle up with a good book in the reading nook, or relax in front of the Smart TV with your favourite tipple?
Pour in the bubbles and indulge in a soothing soak in the freestanding bath, before wrapping yourself in a toasty towel, courtesy of the heated towel rail.
As your eyes grow heavy, retire to one of three well-appointed bedrooms, two king-sizes, one with gleaming en-suite shower room, and a twin, all of which feature original church windows, exposed beams, memory foam mattresses and luxury, hotel-style bedding.
Explore your local surroundings, where foodies will have found their haven, with a fantastic selection of pubs, bistros, restaurants and cafes, ideal for when you don’t feel like cooking, along with well-stocked convenience stores.
Pack-up your bathing suits, swimming trunks and towels and spend the day on the glorious sands of Ventnor Beach, where you can bathe, paddle the shores or take to the waters on your kayak or canoe.
Keen walkers will delight at the close proximity of a range of scenic coastal paths, where you can soak up the best views and scenery in the area.
If that isn’t your thing, why not sample the harbour’s freshly caught seafood at the Smoking Lobster.
Other attractions in the town include Longshoreman’s Museum, Ventnor Golf Club, The Botanical Gardens and the picturesque National Trust Ventnor Downs.
Be sure to check out the nearby Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary, where you can visit the sweet, rescued donkeys and ponies.
The budding historians in your party can enjoy the Museum of Island History and the Newport Roman Villa in Newport, or the impressive medieval Carisbrooke Castle.
Further afield, you will find Cowes, where you can explore the delights of the Sir Max Aitken Museum, the Cowes Maritime Museum or hop aboard a ferry to Southampton for a memorable day trip.
All this awaits with a stay at Pilgrim’s Loft.
