Explore the pretty Norman church of St Mary’s, to the rear of which stands the charming Old Town Hall.In the grounds outside the new town hall there is an iron bullring that was historically used to secure a bull whilst it was rather gruesomely baited by dogs as part of a traditional celebration.On the outskirts of the town the Brading Roman Villa offers good insight into some of the many relics that have been found from the Roman period in the area, and the Villa site sits within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.The restored railway station buildings and signal box at the Grade II listed Brading Railway Station are also well worth a visit, as their shop and tearoom also houses the Brading Tourist Information Point.The Brading Downs provide some of the most spectacular views across the Isle of Wight looking out across Culver Down and Sandown Bay, there are many footpaths and bridleways across the Downs and the protected RSPB marsh lands making the area highly popular for walking, exploring and birdwatching.ACCOMMODATION:GROUND FLOOR:Utility Room - Washing machine & tumble dryer.Bathroom: Bath with handheld shower attachment, wc, wash hand basinLounge: Sofa, 2 x armchair, bean bag, Freesat TV/DVD player, music centre, nest of tablesKitchen: Gas hob, electric oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, kettle & toasterSteep Cottage Style Staircase from kitchen to:FIRST FLOOR:Bedroom 1: Double bed, bed side cabinets, dressing table, complete wall wardrobe, easy chair.Bedroom 2: Twin beds, bedside cabinet, dressing table, easy chair, wardrobe.OUTSIDE: Paved rear courtyard (gated & fenced) garden to front, garden furnitureParking: Parking on streetADDITIONAL CHARGES / SERVICES:We've partnered with Yhangry to bring exceptional dining right to your accommodation.
