Welcome to Westgate Cottage

Self Catering Holiday Cottage on the Isle of Wight

Westgate Cottage is a four bedroom, 17th Century stone built holiday cottage in St Lawrence, at the Southernmost tip of the Isle of Wight, sleeping up to 8 people.

This unique cottage nestles in this sought after location officially recognised as an area of ‘outstanding natural beauty’ making it ideal for those wishing to explore the countryside and coastal walks.

This beautiful cottage, all on one level is available to let as a self catering holiday rental home and boasting a Quality in Tourism Gold award for exceptional quality of accommodation and customer service.  We are also happy to welcome dogs to our cottage.

Originally the local coach house, stables and accommodation for visitors touring the island, the cottage has been converted into a four bedroomed house with kitchen, bathrooms, living and dining room.

There are still remnants of days gone by, with lashing points for the horses and cobbled pathways outside.

There is a secure, gated walled cottage garden in the courtyard outside, plus ample parking for two cars.

St Lawrence village has a post office and store and the picturesque and popular Steephill Cove beach, Ventnor cricket field and splendid botanical gardens are also very close by.

A short drive is Ventnor with its crescent shaped beach, esplanade and variety of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Nearby places of interest include the Isle of Wight Coastal Visitors Centre, St. Boniface Church, Isle of Wight Glass at St Lawrence, the Rew Down Local Nature Reserve and St Boniface Down, which is the highest point on the Isle of Wight. The Wight Light Gallery in the High Street has a stunning collection of Island images on sale. The Isle of Wight coastal path is a 65 mile (105km) long trail around the island, which follows the coastline as closely as possible.

Entertainment, sport and leisure are varied and include Cricket grounds, golf courses, Pitch & Putt courses, tennis courts and a variety of children’s playgrounds.
