Bay Side is a luxury beach front apartment, rated 5* by Visit Britain. The apartment enjoys stunning panoramic sea views overlooking Freshwater Bay and The English Channel. It has direct access to the beach in the Bay.
Located in a quiet and peaceful position, but within walking distance of 2 golf courses, local restaurants and tea room, shops, bus stop (take a Round the Island open top bus from just outside), and of course right on the beach for sunbathing, swimming and water sports.
The village of Freshwater nearby has 2 supermarkets to stock up with groceries for self-catering, takeaways, shops, and a Leisure Centre with swimming pool, gym and tennis courts.
The apartment is perfect for 2 couples sharing, or for families (sorry no children under 10) and is genuinely beach front, with a large terrace overlooking the beach, with steps and a private gate to the beach. A rare location, featured in all tourist board literature and on calendars and with no road between the apartment and sea front. Ground-floor & therefore suitable for "elderly/infirm".
The spacious large bright south-facing lounge/dining room enjoys spectacular sea views. It is furnished with high quality furniture in a 'seaside' style, with comfortable leather sofas (one with recliner) seating 6 and and a dining table and 4 leather-upholstered chairs.
You can sit anywhere in the room and enjoy the wonderful views of the Bay and listen to the sound of the waves rolling in. Mirrors, carefully chosen pictures and a blue-lit modern fireplace give the apartment a homely feel. TV, free view, video, DVD, CD, radio, I-pod docking station and modern lighting ensures you can read, watch TV, listen to music or just chill-out in comfort. A selection of books, magazines, games, DVDs, and CDs are provided.
The kitchen is modern and well-equipped and has an electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, microwave and all the kitchen utensils you need for self-catering.
Bedroom 1 has a 5ft bed, 2 built-in wardrobes, a free-standing wardrobe, chest of drawers, dressing table, chair, 2 bedside tables, lamps, rugs and pictures - all in a stylish tropical theme. The room is light and bright. The en-suite shower room has modern shower cubicle, WC, hand basin and plenty of storage.
Bedroom 2 is light and bright and has a double bed, wardrobe, drawers, and is decorated in a cheerful seaside theme which will make you smile! The adjacent bathroom has a corner bath with mixer taps, WC, hand basin, plenty of storage and is modern, clean and inviting.
A large covered outdoor terrace overlooking the sea and beach is accessed through the French doors in the lounge. Furnished with a wooden dining table and chairs/loungers perfect for alfresco dining and sunbathing.
Outside lighting means you can enjoy outdoor life when the sun has gone down. Enjoy a glass of wine here and watch the sunset over the sea and the reflection of the moon and stars dancing on the water. Perfection!
We also have private allocated parking on site.
The Island is beautiful during the autumn and winter months and the apartment is centrally heated plus a fire, so you will be snug and cosy watching an ever-changing seascape!
