Description from owner

Description

The Auction House is part of a stunning new conversion of Ryde's Victorian sale rooms. It is a luxury mews house in a tranquil courtyard setting in the heart of Ryde, barely a 5 minute stroll to the beach. It has been equipped and furnished with boutique-hotel style decor to provide a relaxing and stylish base for your holidays.

Downstairs the sitting room is flooded with light and is furnished with comfortable Laura Ashley sofas. French windows open out onto the courtyard - perfect for sitting out with a glass of wine or morning coffee. The stylish kitchen/dining area incorporates a peninsular bar so the cook doesn't miss out on any of the action. Dining table with seating for 4.

There is a downstairs cloakroom.

Upstairs there is a beautiful king-size mahogany four-poster bed with hand carving and a stunning sunburst canopy - a little luxury is essential on holiday isn't it? The twin bedroom is also sunny and both rooms have crisp bedlinen and plump feather pillows ( non-allergenic available on request). The contemporary bathroom has a large bath - perfect for relaxing after a long hard day sightseeing - and shower over.

There are two patio areas for sitting out (one private to the side of the house, the other overlooking the communal courtyard) furnished with sun-loving plants which thrive in the Island's mild climate and garden furniture. There is also a kettle BBQ.

Parking for one car is available in the courtyard adjacent to the house. A secure outhouse can be used for bicycle storage.

Due to its location the Auction House provides a very relaxing and convenient holiday base with shops, restaurants, the beach and Ryde's many recreational facilities just a few minutes stroll away. We are delighted to have been awarded an award for our green tourism. A car is not necessary due to our proximity to the catamaran and hovercraft terminals and Island transport hub. There is an excellent Island bus service.

Further details

Please note this is a non smoking property ( although guests are welcome to smoke in the courtyard). Ball games are not permitted in the courtyard in order to protect the peaceful ambiance and out of respect for our neighbours.

This property is not suitable for tradespeople.

We provide a "Welcome" tray on arrival.

For our little guests we provide a travel cot (guests to bring cot linen), highchair, socket covers and safety gate.

Further details indoors

This is our own holiday home and has been decorated to the standard of our own home and not as a holiday let - we hope our guests will appreciate the attention to detail and the quality of the furnishings and equipment.

Further details outdoors

There are two patio areas to the side and the front of the house which between them receive sun all day long. The patios are decorated with sun-loving plants such as standard olives and palms which thrive in the Island's sunny climate. Table and chairs for 4 plus sun umbrella. Barbeque for those essential outdoor meals.

There is designated parking for one car for our guests adjacent to the house. For guests with two cars a long -term car park is available adjacent to the entrance to the courtyard with a short-term car park 100m away.

Storage for bicycles is available in an outhouse.
