Brighstone, a quaint, scenic village in the southwest of the Isle of Wight, is well-served with a local store, post office, tea rooms, and a bar. It is widely renowned for its terrace of chalk cottages with their well-trimmed thatched roofs. The local museum offers an interesting look into the history of the area, where smuggling was once a thriving business! Brighstone and Compton Bays’ beaches are less than a mile away, and guests may explore the world-famous “Needles,” the picturesque cliff top gardens at Blackgang Chine, and Ventnor’s sandy beaches along the neighbouring coastal path.
