Each lodge can sleep up to six people across three bedrooms, providing plenty of space for families and small groups. The wooden exterior has weathered to a beautiful silvery grey, ensuring the lodge sits comfortably against the woodland backdrop. You enter the property via a decked porch; an ideal place for a quiet morning coffee before the rest of the household are up. The ground floor is predominantly an open-plan living space, with doors opening on to a large wooden balcony. The view of the trees can be enjoyed through the doors from inside but by stepping over the threshold, to embrace the wonders of nature, you can also enjoy al fresco dinning on the balcony! The kitchen is equipped for self-catering and being open plan makes it quick and easy to transfer food to hungry guests, be that inside or out. After a day of holiday activities, guests can stretch out on the large corner sofa to relax and watch a favourite film on the wall mounted TV. Climbing the stairs from the hallway will take you to the bedrooms, which are light and airy, lifted by a pop of colour and countryside views from the windows. The ground floor has a bathroom with a shower over the bath, whilst upstairs the guests have access to a shower room. The Water Mill itself has existed for over a thousand years and is first mentioned in the doomsday book A.D 1086\. Still a working mill, it has supplied flour and animal feeds to the people of the island for many years. Flour, muesli and oats are still produced today and can be purchased on site. Having always been a popular tourist attraction, The Mill is set in 35 acres of rural landscape where you’ll find proud looking peacocks strutting freely around the grounds, often with a few doves or ducks in tow, which are just a stone’s throw away from your accommodation. (Please check the opening times to avoid disappointment when booking.) THE ISLAND HOLIDAY COMPANY ARE ABLE TO OFFER DISCOUNTED FERRY TRAVEL TO THE ISLE OF WIGHT WHEN YOU BOOK YOUR HOLIDAY THROUGH US. LOCATION: The picturesque village of Calbourne takes its name from the stream that passes through the village - the Caul Bourne. Arguably one of the prettiest west Wight villages, it is not surprising that much of Calbourne is a designated conservation area. The chocolate-box houses that flank Winkle Street (aka Barrington Row) date from the 18th-century and overlook the village namesake. There are numerous local footpaths and bridleways, stretching out over miles of Downland and countryside. Freshwater Bay, famous for crystal clear water and striking coastal views from the cliff tops, along with the iconic Needles are to the West. Renowned for having a warm, sunny climate the island has 57 miles of coastline containing some of the best beaches in the UK. Sandown, Shanklin and Ryde offer miles of golden sandy beaches, whilst Freshwater, Totland, Colwell and Steephill Cove are attractive Bays, great for swimming and sailing. There are a variety of attractions across the island which can be enjoyed throughout the year - explore the quaint villages, indulge in cream teas and local produce, discover the inventive ways to use garlic at The Garlic Farm and restaurant, take the plunge at the Tapnell Farm Aqua Park, explore the rides and grounds at Robin Hill Adventure Park, broaden your knowledge at the museums and historic sites – or fall in love with the adorable animals at one of the dedicated animal centres, like the Donkey or Wildheart Animal Sanctuaries. Alternatively step into the world of Queen Victoria by visiting her Italian inspired holiday home Osborne House, designed by her beloved husband Prince Albert or enjoy the unique charm to be found at Quarr Abbey. Discover the magical Shanklin Chine or Ventnor Botanical Gardens. Or perhaps a day simply fishing or surfing is more like it? Finally, don’t forget that there is often an event or festival to factor into your holiday agenda, such as the famous Isle of Wight Festival, Cowes Week, the Walking Festival or the Classic Car Extravaganza..
