About this property

5* Converted Barn in an area of 'Outstanding Natural Beauty'. Sleeps 6 + baby

Yafford Mill Barn is nestled within the beautiful countryside of the South West of the Island. The nearby village of Shorwell has a Public House and Village Shop and the larger village of Brighstone (a 3 minute drive) is a picturesque spot with thatched cottages, a Public House, General Stores, Post Office and a small museum. Much of this beautiful coastal region is protected by the National Trust and is a wonderful walking area with both downland and woodland trails as well as coastal paths with dramatic views. The quiet and unspoilt beaches of Brighstone and Brook are within a 5 minute drive.

Awarded a Gold 5* rating by the Tourist Board, Yafford Mill Barn has been designed to provide light and spacious accommodation to the highest standards for 6 people (+baby) with three bedrooms and three well equipped bath/shower rooms. The accommodation is all on one level and is equipped to a very high standard with oak and slate floors, under floor heating, Travertine tiled bathrooms and Egyptian cotton bed linen and bath towels. WIFI is available throughout the property

Garden
The garden is laid to lawn with a large patio for dining. Hardwood garden furniture, with views of Limerstone Downs, seats 6 and a gas fired barbeque is available for use. The rear garden is fully enclosed and secure with a stream flowing just beyond the fence along one side.

Additional information

- Heating and electricity is without extra charge.
- Yafford Mill Barn operates a no smoking policy.
- There is excellent mobile coverage on O2, EE and 3 networks but Vodaphone can be patchy.

Povey reserbation
Lovely house to rent. Very well appointed in the kitchen and in general. Toasty warm, sun shining in through lovely large windows and glass doors. Great pillows which are a rarity. Perfect weather was also part of our stay. Loved the Guinea fowl visits and happy chirping, the burbling brook, Sadly no owl was seen. A beautiful Isle to visit.

Very relaxing!
The barn is very comfortable, there is everything you need for a stay. It's off the beaten track so good to get from everything. It's only a short drive to the coastline and local amenities. Thoroughly recommended for a relaxing break.

Rural house close to south west coast
Well equiped house with a high ceiling which gives a spacious impression. Approach road is unpaved ,a bit bumpy but drivable.Barn lies somewhat isolated so car is necessary but villages and local shops are only a short drive away as are the beaches. Pleasant and speedy communication with the property manager.
