    “Delightful spot, and great fun to have a few nights in this quirky shepherd's hut!”

    Everything you needed inside, cosy and warm. Loved the little touches including star lights in the ceiling!

These two, Blackdown shepherds huts are based on an idyllic site, surrounded by picturesque scenery, on the outskirts of the village of Seaview. The lighting has been specially designed by renowned designer Tom Raffield, The Vineyard Shepherd Huts provide a superb base for couples seeking a retreat to the Isle of Wight.

The pull-down bed is cleverly hidden behind the dining area to save space, whilst the sleek shower room is where you freshen up before your adventures. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic setting, there are many walks directly from these shepherd huts, where you enjoy a stroll along the lanes or an all-day hike over the Downs.

About the location

SEAVIEW

Ryde 2.6 miles.

Seaview is a small Edwardian seaside village on the north eastern shores of the Isle of Wight, only a 15 minute drive from the superb transport links of Ryde. Seaview is one of the South of England’s most famous holiday destinations, with a reputation of being an upmarket resort. This lovely seaside resort has stunning views out across the Solent, gorgeous golden sandy beaches, a sailing club, boutique shops and many popular restaurants and pubs, such as The Seaview Hotel and The Old Fort. On the coastal footpath towards Ryde just off Springvale is Puckpool Park, an old Victorian Fortification Battery, now with tennis courts, mini-golf and a children’s play area set within its pretty gardens. In the summer, locals and tourists take part in the famous Seaview Regatta, competing in many traditional activities, with races on the beach at Seagrove Bay, rowing in the village’s own unique boats, tug of war, the greasy pole and diving, all concluded at the end of the week with a magnificent firework display. As well as being a coastal village the nearby countryside at Seaview’s Duver is a nature reserve, with frequent visits from the beautiful red squirrel, as well as having an incredible array of bird life. A wonderful Isle of Wight base.
