About this property

Tower Hut is a charming shepherd's hut nestled close to the beach in the vibrant town of Ryde, Isle of Wight. Perfect for couples, this inviting retreat offers a delightful base for a seaside escape with everything you need just a stone's throw away. You can access the hut using the car ferry or passenger ferry. Upon entering the single-storey abode, you will be greeted by a welcoming studio-style living area, thoughtfully designed to maximise space and relaxation. Here, you can rustle up a quick meal in the compact kitchenette before settling down in the sitting area for a relaxing evening with a good book or a favourite film. When it's time to retire for the night, make your way to the inviting double bed. The property also benefits from a sleek shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, basin, and a heated towel rail for added comfort. Step outside to the enclosed front garden, where you can enjoy the fresh coastal air. The garden features a patio area with furniture, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or dining alfresco on warmer evenings. Experience an array of local attractions, all in walking distance including The Wildheart Animal Sanctuary to discover an array of exotic animals, and step back in time with a visit to the historic Brading Roman Villa. Spend quality time together at the Sandham Gardens, offering a host of fun-filled activities. Savour the taste of the sea at The Ocean Deck Bar & Restaurant with its delightful seafood dishes. A short ferry ride will take you to Portsmouth, where the Mary Rose Museum and Portchester Castle beckon, followed by an awe-inspiring visit to the Blue Reef Aquarium. On your return, rustle up a quick snack from locally sourced produce at Fresh Roast Pots. Visit the serene Quarr Abbey, or soak in the stunning ocean views from atop the Appley Tower. Take a leisurely stroll through the picturesque Appley Park before appreciating the rich history at The Ryde Castle. Immerse yourself in exciting live performances at The Alamo Theatre. Whether you choose to relax at your inviting retreat, explore the beach or the vibrant town, Tower Hut promises a memorable stay in the heart of Isle of Wight.

Ryde, fondly known as "The Gateway to the Island", is the largest town on the Isle of Wight and became popular as a holiday destination in the 1820s. Today, the regular ferry, catamaran and hovercraft services make this lovely resort accessible for all. There’s so much to see and do, catering for all ages and interests within the town and local area including a wide range of shops, pubs and restaurants, whilst the 6 miles of super, gently sloping sandy beaches are ideal for bathing. Along the esplanade there are bowling greens, tenpin bowling, putting greens and children’s rides as well as a boating lake and paddling pool. With many other attractions within easy reach, Ryde provides a superb base for touring this picturesque island.

    Private and secure garden, perfect for our dogs. Facilities were excellent - lovely touch with complimentary tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, shampoo, conditioner & shower gel. Thank you for an amazing stay! We will definitely be back.

  • Pamela

    Secluded garden perfect for dog. Key holder very difficult to use, had to get help. Thought there would be TV as mentioned on one listing, and Sykes listing said "read a book or watch a film". Advice on recycling would be useful.

  • Iwona

    Property closely located near beautiful APPLEY BEACH. The Hut itself is beautifully decorated and contained all necessary equipment for self-catering holiday. Really pleased with it all. Would definitely go back there in future! Highly recommended.
