The Isle Of Wight & Getting Here - Only 23 miles by 13 miles, and a short sea crossing from the mainland, the Island has a unique atmosphere boasting many attributes, not least of which is its slower pace of life and its own microclimate. It enjoys unspoilt villages and fine seaside resorts with many miles of impressive coastal scenery. With safe sandy beaches, it is a place for sailing, windsurfing and swimming, ideal for both young and old.

There are many ways of crossing The Solent to the Island. If travelling by car there is a choice of three routes all with frequent services: including, Portsmouth to Fishbourne (45 minutes). If travelling on foot there is a fast and frequent catamaran service from Portsmouth to Ryde (15 minutes) and a similar service from Southampton to Cowes (23 minutes), both connecting with regular mainline train services to London Waterloo. There is also a hovercraft from Southsea to Ryde, taking 10 minutes. To the west of Bembridge there is a small private aerodrome and Southampton Airport is also within easy reach, on the mainland.

The Island is an international sailing mecca with many events throughout the season. The most famous is Cowes Week. In addition, there are many premier yacht and sailing clubs including nearby Royal Victoria Sailing Club.

Yeomans - Constructed to exacting standards, there is accommodation over four floors which extends to approximately 3,850 sq.ft with balconies at three levels and with a 56 ft roof terrace. In addition, there is a garden with gated access on to the seafront, as well as secure underground parking for two cars plus storage space. Designed to make the most of the superb views, high quality fittings have been used throughout. The lower ground floor level could easily be treated as being self-contained, currently benefitting from a superb additional living space, ideal for entertaining which flows in to the garden.

This exceptional frontline setting is absolutely prime, benefitting from unobstructed views over The Solent including over the 'Squadron start line' giving a grand stand view of one of the World's busiest yacht race areas as well as ocean going liners from Southampton. The property is only a few minutes walk from the High Street with its range of restaurants, shops and sailing facilities as well as the various yacht clubs. The Red Jet providing fast and frequent passenger ferry services to Southampton.
