NETTLECOMBE FARM HOLIDAY COTTAGES AND FISHING LAKES

Luxurious self catering cottages situated in a stunning, peasceful and relaxing rural location.

Fishing lakes available for day visitors for a per rod charge and free to guests staying in our luxurious holiday cottages.

HOLIDAY ACCOMMODATION
Nettlecombe Farm is nestled in the heart of the rolling South Wight countryside, at the top of a quiet lane around half a mile from the village of Whitwell. It is a working farm that offers luxurious self-catering holiday accommodation in 9 self-catering cottages and converted barns.

Nettlecombe Farm has been in the Morris family for over 100 years. The farm's meadows are grazed by beef cattle, sheep, ponies and donkeys. In the Rickyard there is a wide variety of small livestock normally including chickens, emus, geese, turkeys, pigs, goats and rabbits. There are many glorious walks and cycle routes accessible from the farm with breathtaking views of a large part of the island. Excellent coarse fishing is also available on our three lakes.

Whilst we have a beautiful rural setting, we are not far from civilisation. At the bottom of the hill is the village of Whitwell with a public house, petrol station, church and bus stop. Two miles away is the neighbouring village of Niton where there is a large general store and off licence (open late and on Sundays), a Post Office, butcher, public house and a chemist. The seaside town of Ventnor is approximately three miles away and the island's capital Newport is around twenty minutes drive. We think you will love this part of the Isle of Wight as much as we do. The passing of the seasons and the changing landscape make Nettlecombe Farm worth visiting at any time of year and we are happy to offer short breaks for out of season guests visiting between October & May.

FISHING LAKES
If you enjoy fishing then you should take advantage of our three lakes that are located a 150 yard stroll down the lane, which is also accessible by car. These man made but now wholly naturalised lakes cover an area of 1.5 acres and are well-stocked with carp, roach and tench of various sizes. The largest recorded fish caught from these lakes to date was a 20lb carp caught by a 12 year old boy.

Yearly, double figures are caught. As well as being a peaceful place to pass the time and admire the beautiful scenery the lakes offer something to anglers of all abilities; good sport for the experienced angler and simply a chance to catch fish for the novice.

Guests staying at Nettlecombe Farm can fish free of charge, and the lakes are also open to the public for a daily 'per rod' charge. The lakes are open from dawn to dusk all year round.

There is ample car parking next to the lakes and toilet facilities are also available nearby.
