This delightful Victorian detached three bedroom cottage is ideally located a few minutes’ walk from Bembridge beach, village shops, cafes and pubs. Walks from cottage include Bembridge Windmill, Lifeboat Station, beach cafes and RSBP Brading Marsh.
A sensitive renovation in 2020 we aimed to provide a space to relax and unwind. We uncovered it’s original features while adding modern conveniences. Period paint colours act as the backdrop for a considered interior of vintage, upcycled, bespoke items and some original artwork.
Open the front gate into the secluded pretty cottage garden. The brick path leads through the front door into a cosy cottage. Left turn and enter a spacious brick tile floor country style Kitchen/Dining Room. Two exposed brick fireplaces – one with Aga, separate electric oven/gas hob.

“It was a lovely cottage, we so enjoyed staying there. It was very comfortable, we loved that there was such a choice of places to sit; kitchen and outside were of course primary choice and the lovely conservatory for evening drinks. The kitchen was really well appointed and we felt very at home in the property. It was also so convenient for us, I hope we may return in the future”.

We have a wonderful holiday and the cottage was great! Thank you.
We absolutely loved our stay at Elm Cottage, comfortable beds, great showers and easy for our dog, thank you and we will be booking again!
We absolutely love what the owner has done at Elm, we loved staying here this summer, it’s so clean and everything works, we will be back!
We’ve had a lovely stay in your wonderful cottage (can we buy it?!) We were celebrating our pearl wedding and have only once before stayed at the same accommodation more than once but know that we wish to stay here again in the not too distant future, thank you!
We had an excellent stay at Elm Cottage and really enjoyed our short break.
We had a lovely time at Elm Cottage, great location, perfect for the public path with doggy! Thanks again for a lovely time.
Many thanks. We had a great time. All six 6 of us, from 3 & 8-year olds to oldies, found the cottage charming, as well as being fully functional, & having the great location for the shops, sea buses etc. The back footpath was good too.
Such a cute cottage! Stayed here with our in-laws and it was perfect. Lots of cozy character and each room had its own sink which was a nice feature. Lovely place to explore the island! Thank you for having us, it was lovely!
We absolutely loved Elm Cottage and the generous, thoughtful touches from the owner such as the wine, the eco friendly products in the utility room and the bathroom that my daughter loved ! Please do pass on our thanks, we will definitely be back !
Fantastic place to stay, the kitchen/dining room area was big with a conservatory and living room in addition.
The kitchen is well equipped, with all types of utensils, bowls, jugs etc that you’d need, as well as a good range of plates and cups. There are only two hob rings so a big meal would be difficult to cook, thankfully we had wonderful weather and had a bbq every night. The bbq supplied is a decent size. Lots of outdoor seating and two tables which is great.
There’s a co-op just up the road and a very good local fishmonger, it was a great place to stay.

Thank you, we had a wonderful time as always and Elm Cottage is just so lovely.
Thank you so much for another wonderful stay. Will be in touch for our next!
We are very impressed with Elm Cottage, it is very spacious and well equipped, with everything you could ever possibly need, and is spotlessly clean and comfortable. We are so happy with the location; it;s so easy to walk up to the local shops and cafes and to the beach. We would love to come back!
Hi, we loved our time at Elm Cottage and thoroughly recommend HB to any one else. Your properties are always immaculate. Thank you.
We have had the most amazing week. We loved Elm cottage and Bembridge. I am sure we will return to Elm cottage we were delighted to be visited by what appeared to be a squirrel family.
5 Stars for this lovley cottage, clean and comfortable and in a great little village and really handy for the beach.
