The property is located at the bottom of the high street which provides a short stroll to an array of shops and supermarkets, cafes, bars and restaurants, and a cinema. Just outside of the bustling town, a relaxing flat level walk all the way to Island Harbour can be enjoyed along the peaceful Medina Estuary which is a haven for plenty of local wildlife and plants, including wading birds. Some of the island's top attractions are also located in Newport, including the Monkey Haven, English Heritage's Carisbrooke Castle, and the popular Robin Hill Country Park. With the Isle of Wight College located on the outskirts of Newport, there is a good choice of schools close by at Primary and Secondary level including the Summerfield Primary School which is consistently rated 'Good' by Ofsted. All island bus services connect in Newport town centre linking to other major towns of the Island and intermediate villages. Being centrally located means you're never far from all the wonderful things that our beautiful island has to offer, including the beautiful West Wight with its unspoilt beaches and rugged coastline.
