About this property

Our much-loved family holiday home offers the best of all worlds, being right on the Duver Road beachfront and only five minutes' walk from the Seaview village centre. It is the perfect location for a two-family or extended family holiday - just cross the small road and you are straight on to the sandy beach with sandcastle-building, rockpools, swimming and beach games to keep everyone entertained for hours - with the house facilities just a footstep away. Inside the house you can relax on comfy sofas in the sitting room, play pool in the sunroom and even enjoy tickling the ivories on the piano! Bedroom layout is ideal - 6 sleep upstairs with a beautiful newly refurbished bathroom and the 2 downstairs bedrooms work well for grandparents or a second family with a shower room and lots of space. The house is comfortably furnished and the kitchen very well equipped as we love cooking! The sunny, south-facing garden is spacious, being mainly laid to lawn and there is private parking for one car. Seaview is easy to get to, only 10 minutes from Ryde hovercraft and foot passenger ferry, and 20 mins from the car ferry at Fishbourne (Portsmouth crossing), and ideally located for visiting the many attractions and beautiful landscapes and seascapes all over the island. NB we have partnered with an organisation which can get generous discounts on the ferries for our guests.

On the coast at Seaview

An excellent position just over the road from Seaview's excellent beach, ideal for family holidays. The upstairs bedrooms have very limited headroom, and the bunk bedroom downstairs opens directly into the other downstairs bedroom. Furnishings overall are rather dated, though all bathrooms have been well refurbished.

Fabulous home! Fabulous location!

We have just returned from a long weekend stay at Gullsands. This lovely, warm, spacious home easily accommodated our two families (four adults, three adult-sized teens and two older children) with comfortable beds for all, fabulous bath/shower rooms, a well-equipped kitchen including a large table for family meals. We enjoyed breakfasts in the lovely sunny private garden, the pool table was a big hit and the open fire & large squashy sofas perfect for a movie night after a day on the beach. Gullsands is a very short stroll along the seafront to the heart of Seaview where we highly recommend Lily's Cafe for coffee, cakes and waffles plus The Old Fort for a delicious evening meal. Gullsands is a perfect base to explore further afield across the island... or simply enjoy the beach & rock pools immediately in front of the house! Communication with the host, Kate, was faultless - prompt replies and she couldn't be more helpful. Our four-day stay was not long enough! We wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend Gullsands and will definitely be back in the future.

Big Christmas family fun

The photos online obviously sold the property to us which is why we booked it. It was exactly what we were expecting and more. We booked for a big family/friends Christmas break and there was definitely enough space. The layout of the house was brilliant and the rooms and space suited everyone's different needs. There was more than enough crockery,cutlery, cooking utensils to make cooking Christmas dinner easier. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely return in the future, maybe a summer holiday to enjoy the lovely garden and bbq.

Seaview and it so was!

Ideal location for walking and relaxing, the house is quite unique which we loved and the layout worked well for us - six adults and two teenagers - the pool table and piano provided us with many hours of entertainment and competition. Seaview is a very peaceful area, and Gullsands a charming place to stay, the owner was very helpful and friendly, we will definitely return!

About the host

Hosted by Kate Broxham

I live in south-west London with my husband Simon, two sons and one dog and we spend as much time as possible in Seaview.

Why they chose this property

I spent many happy family holidays in Seaview as a child so, when my husband and I were looking for a holiday home, it seemed a natural choice. The moment I saw the house details, I had a good feeling about it, even though it was rather shabby & unloved at the time - we have made up for it ever since with plenty of TLC! We all adore the place and spend many happy days on the beach, on the water and around the island, with friends, grandparents, siblings & cousins. There is something very special about our beautiful island, being across the water, yet so accessible. Seaview is truly idyllic for smaller and older children and adults alike, particularly when the good old English weather is kind, but even when the sun is not shining, there is plenty of fun to be had in Seaview and across the Isle of Wight.

What makes this property unique

This is a fantastic location and a really great family holiday house - it is particularly good to be able to accommodate up to 10 people comfortably, with plenty of space and privacy, just a few steps away from the beach. With two bedrooms, a shower room and a separate loo downstairs plus three bedrooms and a bath/shower room upstairs, the house works perfectly for family groups such as three-generation families or two families of friends. Entertain yourselves on the piano or playing pool, and pop across with your drink in the early evening to see some truly awesome sunsets!
