From the owner

Spacious 'Green Accommodation' Award-winning level entry bungalow (with free WiFi) in peaceful countryside, just 2 miles from picturesque Yarmouth with harbour, ferry, restaurants and pubs.

The large living space, with wetroom, is wheelchair accessible. Under floor heating is provided by eco ground source heat pump, warm in winter, cool in summer.

With easy access to beaches, walks and trails, and all the Island's attractions, 'Orchard Lee' provides a modern luxurious base for peaceful holidays for all generations or groups who enjoy opportunities to relax together indoors or out in their own meadow. The house may be divided into two independent wings giving flexibility.

Watch a barn owl hunting at dusk as you enjoy supper on the verandah, play cricket or rounders on the grass, relax by the log stove in winter after a day visiting historic Osborne or Carisbrooke Castle or walking the coastal path.

Visit nearby restaurants or buy local produce at a Farmer's market to cook at leisure.

Response from the owner
It is good to hear you found Orchard Lee comfortable, spacious, clean and well equipped, with impressive wetroom and en suite bath and shower rooms, for your family gathering this Easter. All bedrooms have a fitted wardrobe with shelves, and en suite bathrooms separate bedrooms so that sound cannot travel between bedrooms. We’re sorry you didn’t get on with the ground source underfloor heating even when turned up to 25 degrees at your request, a higher setting than elderly visitors with reduced mobility, have requested. Our wireless Internet operates at a down load speed of 28Mb/s. Here, BT offer about 1Mb/s. Sadly, the weather and mobile reception are beyond our control, but we are pleased you appreciated our reduced rate ferry tickets for your cars, saved you money.
