LOCATION:

Glorious Sandown Bay is on your doorstep, and voted one of the Island’s best beaches, providing a long stretch of sand and great swimming waters. Along this stretch you can see the red sandstone through to the white chalk of Culver cliff, and it is around here that fossil remains can be found. Sandham Garden’s play area is just across the road from the apartment with go karting sky nets and crazy golf and children’s play area. A short flat walk further along towards Yaverland, and you will also find the Wild Heart Animal Sanctuary formerly the isle of Wight Zoo, famous for its big cats. The town of Sandown is brimming with attractions to entertain visitors, most of them right on the beach front itself, so you never have to stray too far from the golden sands. Should you enjoy a coastal walk, you can walk the length of Sandown Bay from Yaverland past the Pier along the seaside revetment all the way to the popular neighbouring town of Shanklin. If you are keen on an active holiday, the bay is hugely popular with water-sports, and you’ll certainly see people paddle boarding, surfing, catamaran and dingy sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing, depending on the weather.

We stayed for 5 nights and had a brilliant time
We stayed for 5 nights and had a brilliant time. The house is so well equipped, is in a perfect position for the beach, playground, amusements and Island attractions. The whole family really loved the house. It is across 4 floors so we are all a little bit fitter now having climbed more stairs than usual. There is also some building works next door but we barely heard anything at all.

Great place, big spacious right on the beach.
Great location, really good customer care from the team when we rang them. Good bedrooms. Kitchen had nice big fridges, balconies and bathrooms also great and lots of hot water. Blinds are rubbish and don't black out the light at all in most rooms. Fine this time of year, but in the height of summer is will be very difficult to get the kids to sleep with. Also it is a big place so great for families but lacking some children's amenities, specifically some plastic cutlery knives and forks for kids.

Thank you very much for the holiday stay at Colonels House we had a lovely relaxing time, the view across the bay are top notch and the accommodation is outstanding, extremely spacious and very quiet even blocking out the road noise from below. I highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying here as it is well worth the price, it is well situated mere footsteps from the beach and only a few minutes walk into Sandown town and attractions themselves. We will definitely be looking at a return visit ourselves. Thank you again for accommodating our stay. Many Thanks Kind Regards Craig and family.
